How to use Chinese, Hebrew, and Islamic calendars on iPhone and iPad
The Calendar app on the iPhone and iPad supports alternate calendars, including Chinese, Hebrew, and Islamic. By default, in America, it's set to U.S. format. However, you can easily change it to any of the other formats. Here's how!

- Launch the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
