If this were available on macOS as well, and did sync via iCloud I'd be all over it. It's a great model for a calendar/task manager but I really don't want to have to squint at my phone screen while using it.
Thanks. I'm happy to share that iCloud sync and MacOS app is something that already in the plan for future development. In the meantime, if you have an M-series Mac, you should be able to run the app directly on your Mac since I've enabled Mac Catalyst support.
Just a heads up from someone who's gone down iCloud sync path before. Make sure you're aware of the tradeoffs before relying on it for your app. It has a lot of downsides that aren't immediately obvious due to it relying on the user's iCloud storage quota. Many user's don't understand this and will leave 1 star reviews etc.
Thanks for the heads up. I’ll definitely keep that in mind. I’m curious though, what other downsides did you run into when using iCloud sync? Would love to learn from your experience.
In general it's a bit of a closed box, it's not that easy to work with and to me felt unreliable and difficult to debug. Running migrations can be easily forgotten and this needs to be done in the dashboard as far as I remember. There aren't official APIs to check certain things like if the user has quota, what to do when the quota is full, how to communicate that etc. I think you may be able to check if it's enabled though. Another one is its not cross platform in any meaningful way, I thought this would be fine initially but as the app I worked on developed it was clear a web or Android version would be nice to add without being tied to an Apple account. I ultimately removed it and wrote my own optional sync layer with my own auth and no one seemed to mind. This thread might be useful https://mastodon.social/@marcoarment/109540935902363728
Most of those things can probably be worked around and might not be applicable to your app but for me it went to the bucket of technologies not to touch again.
