Look at your safari browser history. Maybe you'll get a clue there.

I just refreshed to test cause i was genuinely curious.

It modified “Subscription Calendar”

So go to settings>Calendar and look at subscribed calendars. It may have subscribed you to a calendar via a URL with an .ics at the end of the link. That should be harmless and this is something that can be done from a web browser (usually intentionally.)

It SHOULD be harmless. I mean who knows if someone found a zero day vulnerability that can be deliver via calendar subscriptions but I doubt it.

I just checked and the only accounts that pop up when I click Calendar are my own email accounts. So not entirely sure what happened.

Start a screen recording and do it again? Then you can step the the frames?

Found it https://i.imgur.com/XXiUF0b.jpg

So it appears as ‘Other’ under the Calendar app. But when I go into Settings-> Calendar, it does not show the ‘Other’ account. No clue how to remove it.

Even weirder it does show under Fetch Data in the accounts tab but does not show otherwise. So i dont think i can delete it.

Wait, US Holidays is the subscription? That's a default that just comes with iOS based on your region. You don't subscribe/unsubscribe from that as an account or subscription. I just hide that. Honestly never thought to try to unsubscribe, personally. When you open the calendar, tap calendars at the bottom, scroll down, and you can just uncheck that to stop showing it.

Change your primary holiday calendar to a different region

  1. Go to Settings 📷 > General > Language & Region, then tap Region.
  2. Tap a region, then tap Change to [region].
  3. In Calendar, tap Calendars at the bottom of the screen.
  4. Deselect the Holidays calendar, then select it again.

Note: To subscribe to a holiday calendar from a different region, see Set up multiple calendars on iPhone.

I was thinking that it was a duplicate that was named as ‘US Holidays’. Because there are already US Holidays that are set to each account that is setup. This one in particular at the bottom of the list under “Other”.

Oh I see. Yeah that's the legit iOS calendar. I have US Holidays, Birthdays, and Siri Suggestions under "Other."

I actually sync with Google Calendars (multiple) and don't even use iOS or iCloud calendars and of course Google has their own.

I do have one and it's in a separate section called "subscribed."
