    Hello Debra Stipcich,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

    Before we proceed, may I know if the Mychart apps offer the "Add to calendar" button? Also, can you please go to Settings > Apps > Default apps and let me know the options you have for .ics files?

    I'm waiting for your reply.

    I need to be able to click on an appointment (such as in MyChart) and have it default to Google calendar and not default to Outlook without taking 6 additional steps
