Feature Request: Support for URLs in new reminders #133

Open fadersolo opened 1 year ago

fadersolo commented 1 year ago

I often use the URL feature of reminders to remind me to visit a website or deep link into an email on Mail.app. I’d love to have access to the URL field when I edit a reminder. Even better, it’s be so cool if this was smart enough to recognize when I’ve included a URL in the new remind prompt and just add to the URL field for me.

I am attempting to dig into the inner workings of REMReminders and REMAttachments right now, and I kinda found out how to manipulate the REMURLAttachment, but I am still figuring out how the reminders app saves those contents

@fadersolo sorry for the delay in replying. I want this feature to be available in the app, but this part of Apple API is closed. Currently the URL information is obtained through a workaround, but saving information in this field is a little more complicated and will require further investigation to make it work correctly.

Bummer. I really appreciate y’all giving the feature a solid try though! This app has become my favorite way to interact with reminders from my desktop machine.

I'm not giving up, but it definitely won't be the easiest feature. I really appreciate your words about the app 🤗

I would definitely second the feature request for URL links to be clickable within items in the Reminders MenuBar window. Have there been any developments on this?

Also, I wrote an app spotlight on Reminders MenuBar for my publication, Apple Dispatch: https://appledispatch.substack.com/p/manage-reminders-from-your-menu-bar

I love using your app and thought you might want to know about the article.
