Reminder Support

Specify event reminders directly in your natural language query (e.g. remind me 5 min before, add reminder for 3 hours before, with 15m reminder, alert 1 hour before, remind me at time of event). Custom alarms are automatically created on the resulting event in Apple Calendar.

Timezone Support

Specify a timezone in your query and the event time will be converted to your local timezone automatically. The original timezone time is shown in the subtitle for reference.
