10. If you can't solve the problem

minical gets the same appointments as the iOS calendar. In order to isolate the cause, please check if the event is displayed in the iOS calendar app.

If there are no events in the iOS calendar app

It is not a problem of minical, but there may be a problem with the collaboration between the calendar service where the appointment is saved and iOS. By default, minical's appointments are stored in iCloud (unless it is linked with Google Calendar, etc.). Please check the support site of each company of the linked calendar service.
