Completion status of events in Sorted³

Based on the logic of Hyper-Scheduling, in order to make it easier for users to manage tasks and events in one place, Sorted³ adds a task-like "done" function to the event. Although the events are extracted from the device where Sorted³ is located, if you have set to extract a certain Calendar on multiple devices, whether the event in the Calendar has been done, this status is synchronized through iCloud.
