I think the question is clear. Everywhere I read the use of google calendar but I’m using Apple calendar.

[Something like this?](https://apps.athom.com/app/nl.netactive.homey.ical2voice)

If so, why didn’t you just do a search at [apps.athom.com](http://apps.athom.com) like I now did for ya?

Yes you can. Ical isn’t something specific for Google or apple. It’s just a format. There is this app (that Michael explained) that will be able to read your agenda.

Just be sure there is a public link to it and your good to go.

I think I do something wrong. In iCloud I have selected agenda and Public checked (see attachment). I have the URL in iCalendar to Voice settings copied (see attachment). Now I have a flow created, unfortunately I get errors (see attachment).

What am I doing wrong? Can someone give me a hand?

I think that you need to change the webcal:// to https:// or http:// for it to work.

I experience the same problems as Matt. I’ve been trying for months to create flows based on appointments in my Apple calendar, but adding an Apple calendar with the public web link doesn’t create a working solution.

Sorry but I can’t help because I’m not aware of how Apple exactly does provide the icall. My thought would be that if it would be available from the web the icall app could read it. Obviously not ☹

Hi there, anyone has a solution for Apple calendars? It’s surprising that anyone uses the Apple Calendar in homey…

I’ve tried the icalendar To voice app, but it’s for Google calendars, and there isn’t any other app.

Hi Michael, I tried to install this app, but it says:  
An unkown error has occured [incompatible\_app\_version]  
Perhaps, is it a momentary error or something on Homey/app went wrong?  
Thanks

Hi, i’ve never used or installed this app. I only tried to help the topic starter.  
Maybe the app hasn’t been updated to 3.x, that’s the only thing i can think of.

You might want to use [https://github.com/jghaanstra/icalendar.homey](https://github.com/jghaanstra/icalendar.homey) instead which has some bugfixes over the app you were looking for. You have to install via CLI though.
