We are rolling out a feature update that enables shared calendars to sync to mobile phones. This update will make it possible to sync all your Office365 shared calendars to your mobile phone for any permission level (view, edit, or delegate permissions). In addition, you can now share a calendar or accept shared calendar invitations from Outlook on iOS and Android.
Existing shared calendars will not be upgraded as part of this change, and they will continue to sync only to Outlook on the web, Windows, and Mac. Only shared calendars that are accepted after these changes are released will sync to mobile phones.
The shared calendar will only sync to mobile phones if:
The calendar is accepted from a sharing invitation using Outlook on the web, iOS, or Android
We'll be gradually rolling this update starting on 9/18 and rollout will be completed by 9/22.
You can find more details about shared calendar improvements at the article located here.

Classic Microsoft arrogance - rolling out new features without thinking about the implications and suggesting a "solution" that forces iOS users to use a Microsoft app instead of the native iOS mail app.
Pathetic.

If I have an O365 SharePoint calendar synced with my Outlook account, would this SPO calendar be accessible calendar on the outlook mobile app?

We were aware that one could import an ICS file for a point in time snapshot of the calendar. What we need is an iCal subscription to the SPO calendar. Are you saying there is a way to do this?
What we have are School SPO sites with calendars and Principals with personal outlook calendars.
Our principals would like to see their school calendars with real time syncing to avoid situations like double booking themselves.

You are a little bit to enthousiastic there. The native outlook app does not support shared mailboxes/calendars. So even the native app does not provide a solution.

Has anyone answered this question? I have a public folder calendar that will not share to IOS.

Julia, how does one unselect these calenders? I am using Office 365 on desktop, and IOS calender / Week Cal on my Iphone, and my calender is a total mess showing other's appointments. We just want this on desktop! It's totally confusing on mobile...

Hi,
When will you automatically upgrade all shared calendars to new spec?

Hi Ralph, in order to have the calendars show up in mobile, we have to migrate them from the old model of calendar sharing to the new model of calendar sharing. We are currently in an "opt in" period until all Outlook client work is completed, and then we will begin the service-side migrations that will automatically upgrade users and have the behavior you describe above (the calendars just start showing up). If you want to see it sooner, you can learn more about the work in progress here: aka.ms/sharedcalendars
