Subscribing to Calendars
You can subscribe to calendars that use the iCalendar (.ics) format. Many calendar-
based services support calendar subscriptions, including Yahoo!, Google, and the Mac
OS X iCal application.
Subscribed calendars are read-only. You can read events from subscribed calendars on
iPhone, but you can’t edit them or create new events.
Subscribe to a calendar:
1 In Settings, choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” then tap Add Account.
2 Choose Other, then choose Add Subscribed Calendar.
3 Enter the server information, then tap Next to verify the subscription.
4 Tap Save.
You can also subscribe to an iCal (or other .ics) calendar published on the web by
tapping a link to the calendar you receive in an email or text message on iPhone.
