Your iOS may have a pull or fetch setting based on how often it will synchronise an external calendar URL. To manually refresh the iOS Calendar app you can follow these steps:

To view or update your Calendar app’s update frequency on iOS, go to Settings > Calendar > Accounts > Fetch New Data. Here you can set how often the calendar app should fetch new data, for example, Automatically, Hourly or Every 15 minutes.

💡 If you are experiencing issues with your Calendar app synchronisation, we recommend contacting Apple support.

⚠️ Please note that the synchronisation is not instantaneous, and new shifts you are assigned may not show immediately on your calendar. As such, we recommend using this feature with the Planday app to keep you updated with your schedule.
