Apple's reminders and calendars have become better and better in recent years, and they are completely free and integrated with the system. But the only slight problem is that his reminders and calendar are completely separate. We have no way to view the content of reminders in the calendar, and vice versa. Evminders, is a simple gadget that can help you display Apple's own reminders in the calendar. You can also display the calendar schedule in the reminders. With the shortcut APP, the synchronization of data is even completely automatic, and there is no need to open the APP at all. It should be noted that only reminders with dates can be displayed in the calendar! Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Email: evminders@metaorder.ltd
