Delete a subscribed calendar on iPhone

Go to Settings>Accounts & passwords>Subscribed Calendars ( if you see a different calendar than the one you want to delete) you have to tap on Subscribed Calendars to view all calendars you are subscribed to. Then select the required calendar from the list of caendars , and tap Delete Account at the bottom of the page. I hope this will be helpful. Have a good day.

I had the same problem with a calendar I just added today, but then I realized that pica was right that you have to go to "accounts/calendars," but that there are a few more steps, as detailed in an answer to a similar thread:

"Tap Settings > Accounts & Passwords > SubscribedCalendars. Tap SubscribedCalendars, and then tap the calendar that you want to delete. Tap Delete Account, and then tap Delete Account again to confirm. The calendar subscription is removed."

This worked perfectly for the calendar I'd just added.

That being said, I wanted to delete a race calendar subscription that I added over a year because at ten or so events a week it swamps my personal events, but I can't delete it because it does not appear in settings or in the list of calendars on the Calendar app. The only solution I could think of is to use the Google calendar (which I already added to Calendar) for personal events and reserve the Calendar for sporting events, which just means I need to remember to assign personal appointments to the right calendar when I enter them.

Select the Information button (the circle with the lower case 'i') beside the calendar you want to delete. Scroll down to the bottom of the pop-up screen and select Delete Calendar. Note: Since iOS 7, Apple has automatically added a 'Holidays' subscription to your iOS device that cannot be deleted, just hidden. It shows up under the Other tab.

This had worked for me.

Open Calendar app

Select any date

At the bottom of the screen press calendar

This will then take you to this page

Press the i on the holiday calendar you want to get rid of and select delete from the bottom of the page

I think I may have stumbled upon the solution.

If you go to Settings>Accounts and Passwords there is a section there called Subscribed Calendars where you can select each one - scroll down and there is a Delete Account option. Press it and breathe a sigh of relief!

Right; thanks.

The issue is that (AFAIK), there is no way to delete this calendar from (1) iPad settings; (2) iPad calendar app; or (3) Google on iPad. But from the desktop version of a Google/Gmail account, I was able to delete the calendar.

I was trying to figure this out, but had NO luck, until I tried to unsubscribe from Calendar on my Mac. Worked like a charm! Just right-click on the calendar you want to delete/unsubscribe from in the left-hand calendar list in the Calendar app, and it will get removed from your device. Hope this helps.

Thanks for this tip.

There doesn't appear to be any way to delete that sort of calendar from "Settings" or from the Calendar app on an iPad. And I couldn't find a way into this from Google on the iPad.

But on a desktop, from Settings in the relevant Gmail account, drilling down a few levels took me to two options - "unsubscribe" and "delete". Deleting it from the desktop worked to delete it from the iPad as well.

That's a very good point and one that could help a few others, completely forgot that sometimes a calendar can only be "managed" on the device it was originally setup on, which a lot of the times is the PC!

But it can also be the case that a PC just offers more functionality for doing that sort of thing when compared to iOS, which can appear "cut-back" in comparison.

Whatever the reason, if someone is having difficulty in removing a calendar on one device then it's possible by using another they might succeed.

Happy you resolved.

Settings > Accounts and passwords

The subscription is coming through google calender. You can delete it under settings from the desktop site.

I found a workaround to this issue. It may cause other undesired outcomes, but it did exactly what you are asking.

Settings > General > Language & Region > Region

I selected Yemen > Done > Continue

After force-closing the Calendar app and reopening it, my "Canadian Holidays" Calendar listed under "Other" disappeared. I'm guessing there are other regions where no holidays calendars are created, but this Holiday Calendar seems to be directly linked to your Region.

If you want it gone that badly, there's your option. 🙂

I always thought "Shared" calendars had to be removed from the account that they are linked too, so in your case do you not sign in to Google and remove from there!

Found these that might help

I've no Shared calendars to test the above, but my understanding is that you have three ways to setup a calendar for iOS, "Specific" to the device which you remove from within Calendar itself on said device, "Subscribed" calendars which has to be removed from within Settings on that device and "Shared", which is managed/removed from the web account for that service.

But even if I haven't quite got the above correct, the areas I would try for removal of a "calendar" is from within the App itself, then within the devices Settings section (ie. iOS's Accounts & Passwords) and lastly going to that accounts Web Site.

Hope this helps.

I have the exact same problem. sorry I cannot help. I too am waiting for Apple to fix this stupid problem they created. I don’t recall previous iOS versions having this problem.

Poor quality assurance testing by Apple.

Very dis

The above solution doesn't apply because for those of us who are experiencing this bug the "Subscribed Calendars" menu option simply doesn't exist (is not shown) when you select Settings > Accounts & Passwords. The only thing that appears is the heading "ACCOUNTS" with all of the accounts on the iPhone.

However, when inside of a calendar app, you will see the offending "Other" calendar that you wish to remove. In my case this is "US Holidays".

Apple needs to fix this bug.

Be careful doing that because you are messing with Location/Region Settings and it may impact on other areas of the system.

As I posted above the system puts several Calendars under “Other” and these are not ment to be removed, just deselected. If you have a Holiday Calendar under “iCloud”, then that’s the one you should be trying to remove.

I seem to remember a while ago some had trouble getting the Holiday Calendar under macOS to work and the only solution that Apple put forward was to Subscribe to it separately until a fix was found - these “duplicates” could be a left over from that period.
