Q: Importing .ics calendar events from emails

I have recently upgraded my iPhone 5C to IOS 10 and I am unable to import all events within an .ics calendar file into the standard calendar app from an email.

 

Previously under older IOS's the method was the following:

 

1. Open email message containing .ics file.

2. Tap the .ics file to view a list of events.

3. Scroll to the bottom of the events and tap 'add all' then select the calendar to which the events are to be added.

 

There is no longer an 'add all' button. I have tried to add the events one at a time but this doesn't seem to work half the time.

iPhone 5c, iOS 10

    I've run into the same problem.  I tested this by creating an ICS file w/ Calendar (version 8) on my Mac OS X (el capitan 10.11.6) then sent it to myself.

     

    Using the default mail program, I can see the file but can't  add them all at once.  Is there another way we're supposed to do this now?
