Ar you having write issues on Android, read this?

So, you HAVE TO USE the provided "permission" functions in order to get this working. I was using react-native-permissions to get the WRITE permission granted but I was just getting "write" errors. Enjoy the snipped

import {useCallback, useEffect, useState} from 'react';
import {Platform} from 'react-native';
import RNCalendarEvents, {
  CalendarEventReadable,
  CalendarEventWritable,
  Options,
} from 'react-native-calendar-events';
import {formatRFC3339, addMonths} from 'date-fns';

const NOW = new Date();
const IN_ONE_MONTH = addMonths(NOW, 1);

type UseCalendarEventsProps = {
  phoneCalendars: string[];
  loadEvents: (
    startDate: Date,
    endDate: Date,
  ) => Promise<CalendarEventReadable[]>;
  saveEventToCalendar: (
    title: string,
    details: CalendarEventWritable,
    options?: Options,
  ) => Promise<void>;
  transformDate: (date: Date) => string | undefined;
  loadError?: Error;
  saveError?: Error;
};

// results is undefined on the iOS sim.
// use a device to test calendar access
async function requestCalendarAccess(): Promise<boolean> {
  try {
    await RNCalendarEvents.checkPermissions(false);
    const res = await RNCalendarEvents.requestPermissions(false);
    return res === 'authorized';
  } catch (error) {
    return false;
  }
