Repeating end of the month events on iPhone Calendar, problem for February

Question

This is more of an usability problem/bug/question.

I wanted to add an event to occur on the end of the month for every month. But if I choose October 31 and set Repeat Event -> Every Month, all months ending in 30 are left out (including 28-feb). So, I could solve this by putting the end of the month at 30, and only miss out on February... But I need it to be on the 31, when the month ends in 31; 30 when it ends in 30; and 28 or 29 for February.

The Calendar app doesn't detect that I want it "Every Month at the end of the month". I can't create an event for 30 and another for 31 because I would have the same event twice on months ending in 31.

So, anyone have a way around this?

Of course, going to each month and setting it is not an answer I'm looking for. And requesting 28-day 13-month calendars isn't either.

Answer 1

Set the graphic calendar solution aside, and try something like:

Repeat event <Monthly> on <first> <Friday>
Repeat event <Monthly> on <last> <day>

Translate that to a programmatic schedule as needed.
