We switched from Cozi and I started using the native calendar and started using the family calendar. My kids have ios but despite multiple invites I can add hubs who uses Android!

Hmm. I would think that opening the Calendar app, tap "Calendars" at the bottom, tap the circle-i icon to the right of the calendar, making sure that "public calendar" is turned on, and then share the link with your husband will let him subscribe to the calendar in Android and/or Google Calendar on the web.

Pretty much yes. They are coming from outside Apple’s ecosystem, so they can’t authenticate.

Alternatively, you would need to use Google Calendar (or some other calendaring platform with sharing features) on your device.

Ugh. I sorta use Google. It could import into Cozi so I added his calendar. The kids were all ios so I started using the family calendar. Ok well that’s that then. Thanks.

Can I import his and his import mine? That’s what I did! I shared it but he says he doesn’t get it. I’ve done it multiple times so this is another thing ios can’t do to Android is share calendars?
