Can I use the same instance of EKEventStore on different threads?

Question

I was wondering if it is safe to use a single instance of EKEventstore on different threads? I can't find anything about it anywhere.

I would be intending to get a unique EKCalendar instance on each thread.

The descriptions of enumerateEventsMatchingPredicate:usingBlock: and eventsMatchingPredicate: in the EKEventStore reference imply that this is safe to do:

This method is synchronous. For asynchronous behavior, run the method on another thread with dispatch_async or NSOperation.

I'm currently doing this in one of my apps and it appears to be working.

I've moved it all on to the same thread as I was having issues with the first time an app was run. After permission for using the store was requested maybe about 1% of users wouldn't have the permission propagated to the other thread causing lots of issues in the app.
