Choose three fixed answers. The planner does not read a file or collect a filename, path, document, query value, or account detail.

FAQ
Default editor and privacy boundaries
What the planner can explain, and what remains a local macOS choice.
Does this planner change my default app?
No. It only explains a documented path. LoveMarkDown 1.2.2 starts a request, and macOS asks you to confirm the change.
Which LoveMarkDown version includes the in-app request?
The public Mac App Store version 1.2.2 includes the request. Signed Direct downloads remain at version 1.2.1.
Which Markdown extensions are covered?
The documented registration covers .md, .markdown, .mdown, and .mkd files.
Does the planner read or upload a Markdown file?
No. It accepts fixed choices only and does not access a file, filename, local path, document content, URL, account, or clipboard.
