You add calendars via a calendar app, not Davx5

    ICS sync is a compatibility workaround from 1998. Google Calendar works natively on Android without any third party apps. The fact that syncing an iCal file requires a Fossify workaround on Android is a problem Apple created on purpose to lock users into their ecosystem.

    Oh no are you one of the proprietary Android guys? I dont use Google apps, Google Calendar might well support ICS links natively but I dont use that malware XD

    But yes it is odd that ICS is read only. CalDAV is better.
