MicrosoftHi,
Shared calendars definitely work on those devices!
It sounds like the information you received from Support is incorrect.
In order to have the shared calendar sync to your mobile device, you need to accept the sharing invitation using Outlook on the web, iOS, or Android. So in your case, from Outlook on Android, search for the sharing invitation you received & click Accept again.
After re-accepting, you should see the calendar appear in your list of calendars.

I don't think it is wrong. Accepting the calendar again was her first advice but I decline at first because it seems incovenient.
The support tested an iphone and android in her end and it just works if the shared calendar is added back in desktop OWA and let it sync in the phone. I can put screenshots here.
My concern is this
What is the shared calendar was shared 10 years back so i don't have the invitation already and all users change their phone and the org has a lot of shared calendars. Does that mean I need to ask the owner of the calendar to re share the calendar to all users?
