iOS iCal Helper

Hello HN! Long time lurker and Apple user here. I made this simple tool to load .ics files client-side and open it in-browser so Apple's iCal integration enables adding it to their calendar. To say the app is barebones is an understatement: I made it in 2 minutes. Visual enhancements might come.
