You can add events from websites to your calendar using Google Chrome on your iPhone or iPad, although this depends on how the website provides event details.
When you visit a webpage with event information such as a date, time, and location, Chrome may detect it automatically. In some cases, you will see an option like Add to Calendar or a prompt suggesting you create an event.
If this option appears, tap it. Chrome will open your device’s calendar app or a compatible service, where you can review and save the event details.
If Chrome does not show a direct option, you can manually add the event. Press and hold the event details (such as date and time), then copy them. Open your calendar app and create a new event, pasting the information into the relevant fields.
You can also use services like Google Calendar through Chrome. Open the calendar website, sign in, and create a new event by entering the details manually or pasting copied information.
Additionally, some event pages include downloadable calendar files (such as .ics files). Tap the download link, and your device will prompt you to add the event to your calendar.
You can create calendar events without the need to leave Chrome.

Keep in mind that Chrome on iOS does not have a built-in event manager. It relies on integration with your device’s calendar apps and supported website features.
In summary, adding events in Chrome on iPhone and iPad involves using website prompts, calendar integrations, or manually copying event details into your preferred calendar app.
