How do I stop my iPhone from auto accepting calendar invites?

When I receive calendar invites, my phone auto accepts them and adds them to my calendar without giving me an opportunity to review and accept/decline. I can see in my sent emails that a (blank) reply has been sent. Is there a way to turn this feature off?

iPhone 13 Pro Max

Cannot accept calendar invitations on iPhone Following the last iOS update I can no longer accept calendar invitations on my iPhone. I get an invitation by email which is correctly entered into my diary but there are no “accept, reject, maybe” options available (as there previously had been). When I view calendar on my Mac these options are available for the same calendar event. This is an issue others have had but as far as I can find there has been no solution offered other than a description of how it should (and previously did) work. Anybody know how to fix this iPhone specific issue?

Iphone 8plus calendar issue I just started getting all the invites to other's calendar to which I subscribe. I didn't change anything I can think of and would like to stop this. I'm only getting these invites (the actual invite to accept/decline) on my phone and not computer. I don't know if "events affect availability" is part of it but I've tried multiple times to turn that off but it turns itself back on. There are so many event notifications that aren't mine and it's driving me crazy. (I also turned off "invitations", "invitee responses" and "shared calender changes" in the customize notifications area for the calendar app). Ideas, what am I missing?

If you're using Apple calendar(s), that shouldn't happen.

If you're using different calendar(s), contact the manufacturer support team and ask them.

Check your calendar accounts in Settings>Calendar>Accounts
