## What is Echo?

Simple, frequent alerts scheduled to remind you of repetitive tasks throughout the day (or week). Set beautiful, easy to understand reminders using natural language.

Want to be reminded to regularly stand up and move? Be alerted to drink water every day? Take walks on weekends? Or call Mom on Sunday? Echo was born out of necessity. 

Echo is the perfect blend between an alarm app and a habits app, enabling you to take care of yourself on a daily basis. We are all aware of the things we need to take care of every day, but we frequently forget about the small things that are meant to improve the quality of life. That's where Echo comes in, reminding you to relax from time to time, go for a walk, do some exercises, eat a meal, drink some water, etc.

In the end, it's all about developing healthy and mindful habits. Echo can be used for a lot of things, but our main goal was to encourage our users to remember the smaller things in life that can help if done regularly.

You can set up reminders as frequently as every 10 minutes, have them start at a particular time or after you launch Echo, and repeat until an end time or until a number of cycles is reached. You can have echoes repeat every day, on weekdays, on weekends, or setup your own custom day frequency.

Track how frequently you perform an action from the “Stats” screen and measure your performance.

Echo is free to download and supports three simultaneous reminders (echoes) without unlocking. Customize your echoes further with our unique sound pack and add some fun to your reminders.

### 4/5 — I have ADHD and this really helps me stay on track

*2024-02-27, version 1.1.1*

This app is so inexpensive and so effective and simple to use. You guys are geniuses-seriously- and when and if you ever read any of the stupid negative comments they are just haters or not tech savvy individuals but on occasion you might just get an idea from someone who gave you negative feedback cause, well, there is always room for improvement.. whether it be an app or just an area of in your life. That’s where the magic happens is in the grey area.
 Anyway I wanted to thank you, for helping me organize my life, it means a lot to me. Apple does not come stock with an app like this that can help remind you to drink water every hour. I just can’t get over how great this app is and how much it’s helped me improve my day to day functioning. I am a semi-professional who is now adulting at a much higher capacity and it’s all thanks to you guys!  
The only feedback I am going to add here is that I wish there were a few more noises. But that’s it, other than that 5 stars! And I am NOT the kind of person that leaves reviews for apps, but y’all this app has straight up changed my life! Thank you. From the bottom of my heart.

### 5/5 — Will purchase if

*2022-11-22, version 1.1.1*

I am a day trader and do not want to stare at screen during the entire market time. Please allow 5m period timer so i can rest my eye and just look when the candle closes thats will be 😎

### 5/5 — Busy Bee’s solution for self care

*2022-02-23, version 1.1.1*

I love this app and find it incredibly useful even on the free version. I plan on paying 4 dollars total for the additional features is provides. I have noticed it has been a liiitttle while since the last update has happened (4 years as of right now). I feel the minor problems that users encounter can be addressed, but I know the developer is a small two man band. I am grateful for a useful and simplistic app for my needs. After using the app for a few weeks I feel that my only constructive feedback would be to change how the stats look. I like the look that the developers are going for, but I feel for functionality purposes there could be a clearer way to convey the data. There is a lot of potential for this app and developer. I like it, keep up the good work!💕🐝

Update 2/23/22:
I still really enjoy this app and have bought the two purchasing options. It can give regular gentle reminders which is suitable for my needs. 💖

### 5/5 — Two dudes thanks

*2021-12-04, version 1.1.1*

Love the sound reminders which are not intrusive but gentle enough to be exactly that - a reminder.  Thank you, you two dudes who have apparently actually never met. Nice app.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2021-08-23, version 1.1.1*

Simple perfect app , I hate to write reviews but this one is hands down the best , it’s simple , easy to use , reliable and zero fees ! Keep up the good work ! If you’re hesitant to download this app. Stop hesitating and just download it .

### 2/5 — Lesson learned

*2021-06-12, version 1.1.1*

Note to myself, don’t buy the sounds and expect them to work on your Apple Watch..
App developer should address this in the description prior purchase.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work, needs an update!

*2021-06-05, version 1.1.1*

Crashes every time.

### 5/5 — Simple. Perfect. Absolutely great.

*2021-05-27, version 1.1.1*

I use it primarily for stretch reminders throughout the work day. Set and forget reliability and more. No other app needed. Quit looking.

### 5/5 — Vibes:🌊🤍🥰🦋☘️🌱🌼

*2021-05-02, version 1.1.1*

I love this app with all my heart because it gives me a sense of tranquility even when I write down the most stressful tasks. It’s definitely the blue background, which is a beautiful choice. I, who has never bought anything, might by the sound effects - too pretty!  The app is very calm, fluid almost, and I haven’t seen problems *yet.* I only just downloaded it but I love it already and  100% recommended as of now <3

### 4/5 — Great but can’t edit reminders

*2021-03-15, version 1.1.1*

I really love this is app after searching for something that offers more flexible reminders. The only issue I have is that I seem unable to edit the text about what the reminder is for. So, I have to keep deleting it and make a new one from scratch. Not the end of the world but it’s an annoying glitch.
