ADDITIONAL DETAILS:

• Customized events / tasks are great for tracking a repeating event such as a birthday, anniversary, or meeting as well as an appointment, wedding, vacation, dinner, sporting event, doctor’s visit, graduation, party and more.
• Use the program as a task manager for “to do” tasks such as going to the store, making a phone call, or doing an errand. Phone numbers entered in the event notes can be clicked on to dial on the iPhone.
• The closest holiday or custom event is always displayed first in a scrolling sorted list. By default when the date of a custom event has passed, it will display "expired" on the selection screens and will no longer display on the main screen.
• When importing birthdays from your contacts, choose to import only new entries or also update previously imported birthdays. If the birthday has a note, it will be imported as well.
• Increase the size of pictures or text in the pop-up details window using pinch gestures.

Note: While the ability to be notified of upcoming events without the program running is a requested feature, Apple does not allow a program to run in the background, so this is currently not possible. We are exploring the use of push notifications, but no decision has been made yet due to the complexities of recurring events.
