Field notes
The page describes a menu-bar panel that can resize from a week to two months and groups calendars by account. Its meeting workflow searches invitation URLs, locations, and notes for links, while the quick-entry panel parses phrases such as “lunch with Dana Friday 1pm.” The site says place suggestions use Apple’s map service and that the app otherwise avoids network access; availability is still presented as coming soon.
