Thanks for your message. What you're seeing in iOS 26 is a feature of Apple's operating system and not something that Hebcal.com controls.

If you don't wish to see the Hebrew date in Hebrew, you can disable the Hebrew calendar on iOS 26 following Apple's instructions:

Change how your calendar is displayed

You can customize the way your calendar is displayed to help highlight the information that’s most important to you. For example, you can choose which day you want to start the week with, display the Chinese, Hebrew, or Hijri calendar (alongside the Gregorian calendar), and more.

1. Go to the Settings app on your iPhone.
2. Tap Apps, then tap Calendar.
3. Do any of the following:
   • Display the Chinese, Hebrew, or Hijri calendar: Tap Alternate Calendars, then choose a calendar.
   • Display the week number next to every week of the year: Turn on Week Numbers.
   • Show the current day as the first day in Week view: Turn on Week View Starts On Today.
   • Choose a different day to start the week: Tap Start Week On, then tap a day.

After some testing the past week, we have confirmed this is an issue on Outlook.com. There is no way to force Outlook to refresh a calendar subscription, and for some reason it has stopped refreshing many of the Hebcal calendar feeds.

We have confirmed that if you unsubscribe from a Hebcal calendar in Outlook Web and then re-subscribe, the problem resolves itself immediately and you will see the events in Outlook.com in a matter of seconds. I hope this approach will work for you too!

G'mar Chatima Tova!

Thanks for your message.

We have confirmed that our Jewish Holidays (only major holidays) feed contains only major holidays such as Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur, Passover, Hanukkah. That feed does NOT include minor & modern holidays, fast days or Rosh Chodesh.

We offer a separate Jewish Holidays (all holidays)  feed which contains major, minor, modern Israeli holidays, fast days and more.

You can subscribe any of these specialized feeds at https://www.hebcal.com/ical/

We note that you mention "Gedaliah Fast" and not "Tzom Gedaliah". Some non-Hebcal holiday feed providers (for example Google Calendar itself) use the event title "Gedaliah Fast". If you're seeing that event title and not "Tzom Gedaliah" then it suggests that you didn't subscribe via Hebcal.com. For the fast of Gedaliah, only use the title "Tzom Gedaliah"

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal.

Candle-lighting and Havdalah times are derived from sunset times, which are approximated from a location (latitude, longitude) and day of year. As of August 2020, Hebcal.com calculates zmanim (halachic times) using an algorithm published by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The NOAA solar calculator is based on equations from Astronomical Algorithms by Jean Meeus.

Since 2013, Hebcal.com has been using lat/long definitions from GeoNames.org, which is available under a Creative Commons license. For the USA, we purchase a commercial ZIP code database from zip-codes.com that provides latitude and longitude for the “center” of each zipcode.
