How do I subscribe to a calendar?

Android does not support calendar downloads natively. However, there are applications which do just this. One which works great is ICSx⁵. Once you have installed that (some devices have it pre-installed), proceed with these instructions.

Step 1

On the Calendars page, select a calendar you wish subscribe.

Tap Subscribe.

Adjust calendar settings if needed.

Tap Add to My Calendars.

Step 3

You will be taken to Calendars page. On the calendar you just added, tap Download.

Step 4

If nothing happens, you do not have an application (such as ICSx⁵) to handle calendar downloads.

You may get a dialog asking which application to use. This guide uses ICSx⁵ but others work, too, such as Google Calendar. Only Huawei Calendar is not recommended because it does not display all-day events correctly.
