Have had a couple of questions about Parchment. For the tasks it pulls all of that from Apple Reminders. So whatever is there you will see that in Parchment. For calendar it pulls from the system. Basically whatever the Calendar app can see Parchment sees. apps.apple.com/us/app/parchme...

If you've been on the Parchment beta check TestFlight. This will be the shipping version. You should see a new icon and syncing should be A LOT faster. also; - Edit and delete events/reminders - Collapsed view now shows the next timed event/task - Future days no longer show past tasks as overdue.

There are very few people I would pour a Dr. Pepper Zero Sugar with Cream Soda out for, but Bonnie Tyler is one.

Having a very public email address means I get signed up for a lot of stupid stuff without my consent. This is just but a taste of my inbox but it might be the dumbest thing I've ever read.

I know I am just repeating what every developer has said before, but why does it take so long to get a Mac app approved by App Store Connect? The iOS TestFlight was approved in minutes this morning, the Mac TestFlight is still Waiting for Review. Also, why does every TestFlight need to be approved?
