I would like to change the color (grey) of the birthday calendar in the iOS calendar. But there is no Information circle in that row. How do I change the color?
Running iOS 18.0.1 on iPhone 12 Plus, and iOS 18.0.1 on iPad Pro 6th gen.
iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 18
I’m sitting trying to imagine a programmer who is making a major IOS revision waking up one morning and saying, “I have a great idea, let’s change the birthdays on all of the calendars to a color that doesn’t catch anyone’s eye and not give them a way to change it.” Then all the other programmers saying, “Great idea - done!”

It seems that the color of the birthday calendar cannot be changed directly. If you want a custom color, consider creating a new calendar and moving your birthday events there. This way, you can choose any color you like.
I was hoping Apple has some hidden method to change this. I don’t use the apple calendar itself, but allow another calendar app to pull from it. Because the apple calendar birthday is grey, so is my other one.
Looks like I get to manually enter birthdays into my primary calendar app. Something I was hoping to avoid.
Thank you
