Reminders MenuBar requires macOS Big Sur 11 or later.
Reminders MenuBar can be installed using Homebrew.
brew install --cask reminders-menubarDirect downloads can be found on the releases page.
After downloading and extracting, just drag the .app file to the Applications folder.
Reminders MenuBar uses EKEventStore to access reminders on macOS (which are available in Apple Reminders and can be synced through iCloud). On first use, the app should request permission to access reminders as shown below.
In System Settings > Privacy & Security > Reminders it is possible to manage this permission.
If you are using OpenCore Legacy Patcher it is possible that you are not being able to grant access permission to reminders and therefore you are facing a window saying "Access to Reminders is not enabled for Reminders MenuBar".

This issue is related to OpenCore Legacy Patcher as stated in the official documentation:
OpenCore Legacy Patcher | Unable to grant special permissions to apps
A workaround is to use TCCPlus to add this permission. I would suggest looking up some threads on the subject and if possible making a backup before trying commands that might affect the use of macOS.
I cannot guarantee that TCCPlus still works or if it's reliable for new versions of macOS. The workaround below was tested by other users on issue #159, but if you decide to proceed it is at your own risk.
After downloading and extracting TCCPlus in the Downloads folder, open the Terminal and run the following commands:
cd ~/Downloads/
chmod +x tccplus
./tccplus add Reminders br.com.damascenorafael.reminders-menubarFeel free to share, open issues and contribute to this project! ❤️
