Opening ICS calendar file on your iPhone or IPad

save the file to a place in your iPhone or iPad files. *I recommend downloads cuz it’s only a momentary download
go to your downloads folder in the files app
press and hold the ICS file and while holding it, go into your calendar app and then just drop it in

.ics file can’t import to Calendar When downloading and opening an .ics file, it shows the event information. However, there is no option to add or import to my calendar. This is on the iPhone 15 and updated iOS as of 1/1/2025. The only workaround I have found is adding it to my Gmail or Outlook calendars. Since I have those setup to also appear in the Calendar app, it shows up as events from those calendars. Seeing the repeated unresolved issues related to this with Apple, I’d say it’s a deficiency in programming with iOS or the Calendar app. Google and Microsoft seem to have this figured out. I will continue adding the .ics file to those other vendor calendars to show up on my phone, but do suggest Apple update this in a future Calendar app version. Thank you!
