The shared Google Calendar is not visible in the iOS Calendar app

When another user shared a Google Calendar, it is not visible in the iOS Calendar app. Upon checking the Google Calendar web UI, the shared calendar is listed under 'Other Calendars' and not 'My Calendars'.

The visibility of the shared Google Calendar in the iOS Calendar app depends on whether it is categorized under 'My Calendars' or 'Other Calendars'.

The visibility of the shared Google Calendar in the iOS Calendar app depends on whether it is categorized under 'My Calendars' or 'Other Calendars.' When sharing the calendar, choose 'Make changes and manage sharing' to include it under 'My Calendars' for the specific user. If you choose 'Make changes to events,' it will be listed under 'Other Calendars'.

iOS App Icons Randomly Flickering / Flashing

When looking at iPhone Home screen, iOS app icons randomly flickering or flashing without any indication what was the purpose. 

Some threads suggested the app icon with "Cleaning" text was attempting to clear cache.  In this case, no "Cleaning" text was displayed.  Also saw a thread indicating there might be a log file called Panic under Diagnostic and Usage Data that was affecting the app.

iOS version 11.1.1, Settings > Privacy > Analytics and turn off Share iPhone Analytics.  (So far, this seems to solve the mystery.)
