I am trying to get the iCalCalender app working on my Homey Pro.

In the settings of the app I am getting the error message

Error loading .ics file(s)  
Uri errors  
[Calender Name] : connect EHOSTUNREACH  
2a00:1450:400e:805::200e:443

I have been in contact with the provider of the iCalCalender app. They have checked error logs and don’t see a problem. They refer to Homey, als being the problem.

Homey has got the latest updates, the iCalCalender app also.  
The ical link from Google Agenda has been copied as described in the documentation, and works when I use the link to download the ical file locally.

Can anyone hint me in the direction of a solution?  
I really could work with the functionality of this app.

Thanks  
Rob

Sounds like the same issue as the one I posted 9 months ago: [Unexpected/incompatible result trying to force IPv4 HTTP requests · Issue #345 · athombv/homey-apps-sdk-issues · GitHub](https://github.com/athombv/homey-apps-sdk-issues/issues/345)

So yes, this is a Homey problem, but Athom is either unable to fix it, or they don’t care.
