After updating to iOS 18 the calendar freezes when I try to edit it. I have tried to restart it several times, but it doesn’t help. Any suggestions? Hoping for a quick trouble fix update.

iPad Pro (4th generation)
There is another thread on this topic under iPhones. I’ve had the same problem on both my iPad and iPhone, and 18.01 doesn’t help. Even worse: after deleting all of my calendar accounts and all of my email accounts, Exchange and iMap, the calendar was still killing my battery in the background without any data in it. The only thing I could think to do is delete both the calendar and Mail apps, and use Outlook for iOS and iPadOS until Apple fixes this. I did submit a bug.
dortuno, I too tried deleting accounts in Calendar, however they do not delete. I'm having calendar problems on my iPad, as well as my Mac with the new operating system. I hope they get this fixed soon, and I'm surprised there aren't more people screaming about this.
Same experience here. After updating my and redownloading the calendar app it synchronized very quickly with exchange. No issues with freezing anymore, background activity, or battery drain. Similar on iPad. This rather annoying bug seems resolved, at least for my tech stack.
Sorry for the additional post but also disconnected NordVPN which was actively running on my iPad during the trouble shooting and there was no change.
Yes, startet up with “a new iPad “. And unfortunately I can’t start up using a backup because my iPad is administrated by my work.
I wasn’t able to try that because the iPad froze totally, I couldn’t do anything. I had to connect it to my computer to reset it. Hope you stopped the problem.
Short lived victory. iPhone shared family calendar still functioning normally but crashing again on iPad when try to add event.
Spoke too soon. Calendar app on iOS 18.0 on iPhone 14 Pro worked only momentarily. It has returned to its lengthy, 10-15 minute delay when saving/modifying any data. Too painful. I give up.
I have had exactly the same experience as you. I do not have an exchange account however. Sync issues are also occurring with the Message app. I hope Apple gets to the bottom of this soon.
On the iPad, try to do a hard restart, and then try to delete the calendar.

Thank you! That worked like a charm.
I just installed iOS/iPadOS 18.1 on my devices, and have successfully switched back to iOS native Mail and Calendar apps. I an so glad to have Outlook off of my devices!
