How to add an event to my iPhone calendar?

How do I add an event to my iPhone calendar?

I'm not sure if you are talking about adding an event from an email/text or just simply adding an appointment or event? To just add an event/appointment tap on the calendar, then tap on the date you want to add the event, then tap on the + sign in the upper right corner and then fill in the details. I'm adding a link too.

I have tried and my plus sign is underintensified for some reason. I imported US holidays and I input birthdays to the contacts so they appear in my Birthday calendar but I sure like my smart phone better because I could assign icons to the different events and looking at the whole month could tell how many of a certain event seems like going back to MSDos to add an event in iPhone
