Hello, I am trying to schedule reminder in my app based on my silent push notification received but I'm unable to do so in background or suspended mode.Can anyone suggest a way to do so? My basic purpose is to remind the user at a specific time based on the info received from push notification.Thanks!

EventKit - Display calendar events & reminders
Hello All, It appears I've hit a dead-end in developing a "scheduling" app in terms of utilizing the Date Picker control as a calendar that actually functions like the apple calendar. It also appears the EventViewController will only display one event versus an array of events??? So in order to list events/reminders in an app, we have to build this out in a table view or stack view??? I'm finding it hard to believe we can't simulate the current calendar display that when you click on a day, it will display that days events/reminders and have the 7 day view on top of it, etc... Also, I did look at the calendar kit in CocoaPods. I was hoping to build my own using EventKit though. Lastly, I was going to post a screenshot of this calendar/schedule image from an iPhone 11 simulator but it looks like we can't post screen shots in here???

Is calendar invitation status tracking via public icloud endpoint allowed?
Hi All, I want to build a web application to automatically track calendar invitation status. After searching the forum I already figured out that there is no official apple api to access the calendar data of the user (without asking the user to enter his apple credentials). Luckily there is even a public accessible http endpoint to get the needed information: https://www.icloud.com/calendar/eventreply/?t=<IDENTIFIER>&p=p31&cc=DE This link is included in the email being sent out to the invited people. Navigating to the link shows the invitation status of all people invited to this event. Exactly what I need. Is it okay to use this endpoint for my purpose? Thanks in advance. Best, Jan

Add event to iCal API with link?
Hi, I'm a software developer. I have a web application where users receive event invitations via email. In the email, I would like to have an iCal Calendar icon that when a user clicks it, it opens up the Create Event page within their Calendar. And it would be populated with the data passed in the URL parameters like event start and end date, timezone, title, description, Link to the event, etc. I have already done this with Google Calendar and Outlook Calendar. For example, the Google API URL looks something like this: Add to my calendar Does apple have a link similar this? Or is the only way to create an .ics file and have the User download and import it into their Calendar?

Can EventKit not read iCloud calendar on watch?
My standalone watchOS app is trying to read from the calendar via EventKit. It seems to only see local calendars though, not any of my iCloud calendars. Do I have to do something special to be able to view the iCloud based calendars?

I dont see anything in the documentation about how to add Tags in EventKit. Is that available to us to use and I just missed it in the documentation?
