Capability Summary	On macOS, WPS lets you open Import Calendar in WPS Collaboration Calendar, choose a file or drag it in, and batch import schedule data from an iCal file into a target calendar.	Outlook for Mac supports importing .ics items by dragging the file into the calendar grid or list and then confirming the import.	Google Calendar supports importing .ics or .csv files on a computer and lets you choose which calendar receives the imported events.	Notion Calendar can connect Apple, Google, and Microsoft Outlook calendars and can display dated Notion database items, but its help page does not describe direct local .ics import inside the app.	Adobe official help content does not describe a calendar or .ics import workflow; current official pages focus on general file import in Adobe Express.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: the import entry is inside the WPS calendar workflow on Mac; Distinct: imported events can continue to be edited and managed in the same calendar workspace.	Compared with WPS: the official workflow is centered on dragging an .ics file from Finder into Outlook Calendar.	Compared with WPS: the official workflow is mainly handled in Google Calendar settings on a computer.	Compared with WPS: the official workflow focuses more on connected calendar accounts and Notion databases than direct local iCal import.	Compared with WPS: no equivalent official calendar import capability is described.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Import Calendar on macOS is suitable when you want to move iCal-based schedules into one working calendar and continue managing them there. Compared with browser-based import flows or account-connection-first tools, WPS keeps the import entry closer to the calendar workflow. Adobe’s official help content does not currently present a comparable calendar import feature.
