The only way Easter doesn't show up is if you don't have US Holidays turned on.

We’re still not sure if it was a glitch, an “oops” or an intentional snub, but it looks like Easter Sunday has disappeared from Apple’s iPhone calendars under the company's latest software update.
Fox News reports some iPhone users have complained that Easter Sunday, which falls on April 1 this year and is the most important holiday in Christianity, has been erased from Apple’s calendar under its latest iOS version 11.2.5.

So how are you on the internet? By your standards *all* tech companies did and you should not use their products.
I would argue back that a VAST majority of their users are not Christians.
Apple is a truly international company. They need to keep their entire customer base in mind when doing these things.
Its easy enough to find the date for Easter and plug it into your phone or computer. This is really much ado about nothing.
It is an example of how Americans have no idea that there is a big world economy out there. And for most of the people who use apple products, their moms will tell them when its Easter.
I hate Apple and their Ifag army.
“More fake news.”

Seems as though others would disagree -
“Is anyone else missing the Easter and Good Friday on the 2018 iCal???

Not good enough - if it’s not a glitch, the question still remains as to why it was targeted for removal.
The only way Easter doesn't show up is if you don't have US Holidays turned on.
That would not be “the latest update” - that thread dates back to last year.
US Holidays is on by default for US iPhones, Easter is on that Calendar option. If you turn off US holidays *or* you bought an iPhone from another market or registered it in another market, you have to manually (re)enable it. Again, pretty much fake news.
HA!
Took me about three seconds, but LMAO.
“Fake news.”

As I posted above, it’s users who are complaining about it on Apple’s official forum. If the fix were simple, it’s odd that Apple wouldn’t want to address it ASAP in some official way. Late/No response is a bad response (and bad PR).
Except if you go with any other phone maker, your information will be given to the government without a warrant and used against you. Apple won’t (in fact, can’t) break their own encryption.
How is handing your information to the Little Satans in our government a good idea?
See post 27. It’s a non-issue - people turning US Holidays off or using non-US-market/registered phones.

It’s run by faggots and the moronic left.
I wouldn’t expect anything less from them.....they’re fools, the whole damn bunch of em.
Easter is gone off my Mac (HS v.10.13.2) calendar and my iPhone 7 calendar (iOS v.11.2.5). “Indigenous People’s Day” is there but Columbus Day is also there.
Last Friday I attended the weekly round table with some associates from Ft Worth for a few glasses of “tea.” Toward the end of it a couple of attendees got into a rather contentious disagreement over the proper way to describe Indians. Aside from people from India, the debate quickly narrowed to Indians from America. So at that point American Indian or Native American or indigenous poeple. Finally one attendee who had listened along as much as he could stand it announced, “Call them what you want but whatever it is, they are prototype DACA participants . . . Next?”
Easter can fall anywhere between 3/22 and 4/25.
It is on the 1st Sunday after the 1st full moon after the Spring Equinox.
Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy.

They are a private company. Unless you are a shareholder, they have no obligation to give you an answer for anything.
Design an app. Sell it. Then you can bitch.
And if you actually bother *reading* the thread you linked, you’ll see that the solution is “resubscribe to US Holidays”. This is a user error issue, not an Apple omission; as an IT support consultant, I see this often around various holidays. As one example, last November I had a user who complained that Apple had deleted Thanksgiving and Christmas and went on a long rant about how this was a case of Apple attempting to delete traditional American holidays. After he finally wound down, I took his phone, turned US Holidays back on, and sent him away.
