iOS18.0 Calendar App Won’t Allow Entry of Event Times Down to the Minute

After updating to iOS 18.0, the Apple Calendar app no longer will allow me to enter start/end times for events down to a specific minute (say 14:03 usin a 24 hr clock). Instead, after the upgrade to 18.0, the time thumb-wheel gui lets you tap on it to enter specific time but the when you start to type it collapses after allowing you to type only 1 number (which screws up the time value).


Are others seeing this behavior too?


Apple developers and beta testers should have caught this bug during beta testing. Hopefully, Apple software engineers will fix this bug in the next update or so.

Calendar freezes every time I try to enter/change information since 18 update! When can we expect a fix?

Me too. I think it might be related to Gmail accounts. My non Gmail accounts no issue. The moment I added Gmail the calendar stop functioning. And when you look at your battery, at least for me, the usage is consumed with the Calendar app. My device won’t even charge properly with an apple cord only.

The correction apparently is in the Beta update but I will not be doing the beta software update until it has been properly vetted out. In the interim what I have done is used the outlook application. There is no issues adding as many accounts as you need. The only issue is you are unable to map it to your watch. BUT if you push all events to the iCloud account and add that account into the calendar app you should be ok. Just do not add any additional calendars ( I would recommend). I was able to get two calendars (iCloud and one Microsoft account) to work properly. No issues with my battery now and it functions as it was intended to do. Its not perfect but gets the job done...for now.
