Create a link to subscribe to my shared calendar? - hyperlink

Hello here is my problem.
I have a scrapping app that generates an ICS file to have a hosted calendar that is automatically updated for me.
So my users all have a specific link that hosts their ics file.
To do this, they must manually enter the links in their calendar app.
I would like that by clicking on the links their app automatically offers them to subscribe to this calendar.
I would like to find a solution that would work on android, iphone and pc.
If you have any ideas it would help me a lot.
I thought of potocol webcal but obviously it would not be managed by google ect

How to use Recurrence Rule for Google Calendar deep link IOS

I have an mobile web app targeting IOS that does two potential things:
If the user does NOT have the google calendar app installed: We open a link to add an event to the web version of google calendar.
https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/r/eventedit?text=event+title&dates=20210718T080010/20210718T083010&ctz=America/Mexico_City&details=book+details&recur=RRULE%3AFREQ%3DWEEKLY%3BCOUNT%3D11%3BBYDAY%3DSU%2CMO%2CTU%2CWE%2CTH%2CFR%2CSA%3B
And if the user DOES have the google calendar app installed, we open a DEEP LINK to add the event directly to their google calendar app.
E.G
com.google.calendar://?action=create&text=event+title&dates=20210718T080010/20210718T083010&ctz=America/Mexico_City&details=book+details&recur=RRULE%3AFREQ%3DWEEKLY%3BCOUNT%3D11%3BBYDAY%3DSU%2CMO%2CTU%2CWE%2CTH%2CFR%2CSA%3B
And testing on Safari, that all works EXCEPT - the recurrence rule doesn't seem to work for the deep link! The recurring section is just empty.
(The recurrence rule is this part recur=RRULE%3AFREQ%3DWEEKLY%3BCOUNT%3D11%3BBYDAY%3DSU%2CMO%2CTU%2CWE%2CTH%2CFR%2CSA%3B)
Am I doing something wrong?
...Further Notes if you're curious:
1: The recurrence rules are a little hard to read because they are all websafe, but they look like this
RRULE:FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=5;UNTIL=20210701T160000Zs
2: I would just work around this problem by opening the web link in all situations, BUT if the google calendar app is installed it intercepts the web links, and then just takes you to the main calendar and does nothing 😭
3: You should be able to open the above links on your ios device and see the behavior that I'm talking about
On further research, it appears that the Google Calendar app simply does NOT support recurrence rules on deep linking :(

Integrating Google Drive with iOS

I'm working on app in which I need to integrate with Google Drive for my iOS App.
So I started following Quick Start. Every thing worked perfectly fine and successfully able to get list of my file with the use of query in GTLQueryDrive class. But problem is that I am getting every thing for using query so for this there is no User Interface for Google Drive (like they can show all files with logos and we can get those file and some delegate may trigger as I also noticed in android integrated project). So
Is this possible that I Google drive give some default interface for listing files with actions available, instead of just using queries.
If possible then how can Integrate or some helping tutorial link.
Looking for help. Thanks.

It seems what you're looking for is the Google Picker.
It's is a "File Open" dialog for the information stored in Google
servers. With Google Picker, your users can access and upload photos,
videos, maps, and documents stored in Google servers. The selection is
passed back to your web page or web application for further use. You
can read more of that in the
docs.
I have to mention though that the example used is written in Javascript.
If possible then how can Integrate or some helping tutorial link.
Try this iOS Picker demo app from Github.
For additional info about implementing Picker, watch this video from Google.

User stats required for an offline iOS web app

I'm creating an iPad bespoke web app for a sales team which, on occasions, will need to work offline. So far, so good.
The client wants to be able to grabs stats of when the app is used by the sales team? Am I able to write to a file locally, then upload this file or email it at a given time?
Many thanks
If I understand your question correctly, the answer is YES!
You can write and read any kinds of file to your app document. Please check this link. After grabbing your file info, you can send it by email or dropbox or......

Saving data to to devices calendar

I am using query mobile, and phonegap to create an app. Within the app I am building a basic list which holds dates and associated information. I want the user to be able to click the list item and for the data to be saved to their own calendar.
I have searched online, and can't seem to find anything relating. Can anyone help push me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance...
Phonegap does not expose an API to access the device calendar.But I think you can create a phone gap plugin for this purpose.I am not sure about the feasibility of this.May be this link will give you more information.
Try this Android Calendar access plugin for PhoneGap : https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins/tree/master/iPhone/CalendarPlugin
