Simple Mobile apps have been very popular among FOSS enthusiasts. I've personally been using the Gallery, Contacts and the Phone app since a few years now. It's a shame that it has come to this, will be on the lookout for their forks.

Etar lacks features compared to SMT Calendar - mostly for me, the ability to assign different notification / sounds, and of course the ability to export the entire calender as ICS.
Re your question: no. If you try to import an ICS calendar generated by SMT Calendar, Etar only imports the oldest event.
Etar isn't as good as SMT Calendar but it has suddenly become very attractive. I've uninstalled SMT Calendar, and CalyxOS comes with Etar preinstalled. So now I rock Etar. Not super happy, but it's better than nothing. The next step for me is to install a CalDAV server on my home server. That way I'll never get caught unable to import my calendar into a new app. And I'll live with a single notification sound for all my events / appointments.
Oh. I didn't realize that Etar was the default in CalyxOS. That's disappointing, as I don't like the default CalyxOS calendar. I may stick with SMT Cal and just not update, and wait for someone to fork. I thought about forking it myself, but I'm not a developer, so won't be able to maintain it :/
