### 5/5 — Great app, sorry it's not updating anymore

*2017-04-21*

I love this app. Keeps track of the last time I did a chore or changed the printer ink. Reminds me when it's time to do something, whether it's daily, weekly, monthly or yearly. My iPhone just told me it will no longer work with the next update and I don't know what I'll get to replace this simple, efficient and easy to use app.

### 4/5 — Great App!

*2017-03-16*

Overall great, simple, and easy to use. I use this mostly to keep track of recurring household maintenance chores. Would be great if it included a way to filter and show only due tasks or those coming due in a set number of days. I get overwhelmed and distracted when I have to scroll through my list of 50+ items looking for which ones are over-due.

### 5/5 — Best simple reminder app for recurring events.

*2016-10-13*

Last updated in 2013, but works perfectly!  This is the best simple app for recurring events like cleaning the fish tank or giving the kids allowance.  Set how often you want to be reminded (a week, two weeks, etc.). And voila!  You can be a day early or two weeks late, tap and it resets to your set interval, and it tells you the last time you did something.  Not many apps stand the test of time, but this one is perfect!

### 4/5 — Works for a number of reminders

*2015-01-05*

I know you originally developed this app to remind you when you need a haircut but I also use it for monthly/6 week reminders in my life, not just haircuts. Just wished for a different app cover and not the scissors/comb. Great app though.

### 4/5 — So simple

*2013-11-25*

This app is quick and easy to use. I only wish there was a way to sync it with other devices so my family could share to-do lists.

### 4/5 — A unique and welcome twist...

*2013-10-04*

...on the typical countdown-style timer. This app is a good replacement for the older app "perpetual reminder", which was unfortunately discontinued last year.

### 1/5 — Not what I thought it would be.

*2012-07-03*

Don't waste your time. You can just as easily add stuff to your calendar.

### 3/5 — Needs Better Notification Alerts

*2011-07-04*

I noticed that when a particular time function has reached its specified goal, that at least a notification alert will simply appear on the app icon itself with the red badge number icon, but that's it. To me, that's not good enough.

I want my phone to actually sound-off, vibrate or something to alert me immediately at the moment when the goal has been reached.

### 4/5 — Useful Simplicity

*2011-04-13*

Very useful app. I agree with DRMRJ... Handy, Simple, Uncluttered... extremely simple interface. Works great so far. The only thing I would change is to add a "Notes" field so I could add 3-4 lines of additional info for each event. It's a small deficiency. I would give this app 4.5 stars if I could. Put in the Notes and it's a solid 5+ for its useful simplicity.

### 5/5 — HANDY. SIMPLE. UNCLUTTERED

*2010-08-27*

It is uncluttered and handy for events that are not time sensitive as there is no alarm - just a badge. Good for events that I don't need to put into "ToodleDo" or on my "whenever I get around to it" list on my free "ToDo" App. Nice for "Go to gym every 2 days". It was simple to add, edit, re-order, & delete. I really like this one!

The problem I encountered was quickly addressed by the developer. This app definitely gets 5 big ones. I really wanted to put it on my home page but haven't figured out who gets kicked off. 

Definitely worth paying for this. 

Thanks for a very handy piece of SW.
