The APP I didn’t know I needed

Between work, family, chores, hobbies, friends, and whatever else life throws at me- I have 10-15 things I need to do a day and before this app, I would just forget! Not anymore. It’s simple, but SMART. Has just the features I need, not what I think I wanted. Has truly made my life BETTER.

Stopped sending push notifications

Has been working fine for weeks, then stopped sending push notifications. No response from developer for weeks. Tried reinstalling, even joined the the TestFlight beta. Now back to regular, all the time a paying customer.
Real bummer, because I loved the app when it worked.

Promising - but no feedback on bugs

It’s a good app, I like the design, I like the idea, but I presume the issues I’m experiencing in the reminders not showing on creation until a force close & reopen, lack of visual feedback on the creation of a reminder, and no notifications for newly created items. I know Marco will improve it, I’ve emailed multiple times and I don’t expect a personal response, but a lack of updates since release worries me.

Uncomplicatedly recommended

The only reminders app I’ve been consistently using without delaying reminders indefinitely into the aether or having them become noise my brain gets used to.

A Todo List that just works. But isn’t itself work

I love getting stuff done and being organized. But I don’t like having to learn and maintain a system to stay organized. This is a list. It reminds you. And it will keep reminding you. That’s what it should do!

It makes remembering important stuff easy.

I only have one list and I don’t feel bad swiping off the reminder if I can’t right now. I know it will remind me later without me having to change settings or set a new date.

Thank you!

Excellent UI

Great simple design that is everything the stock apple reminders app should have been. The subscription pricing turned me off initially (and I still don’t love the idea of it) but it’s worth it to have a simple and clean reminders app

Literally life changing

I’m not exaggerating - I don’t forget to get things done any more! I cannot even specify what about the way this app works that makes it better than every other reminder app I’ve tried. Thank you so much!!

Finally.

This is the first to-do app that I can works for my brain.

I tried GTD and OmniFocus - it worked well when I stuck to it, but I always fell off the wagon. I tried Todoist and others like it - they didn’t stick.

I’ve used Unforgetful for weeks now, and I’m really liking it. The only thing I would love added would be a global “new task” shortcut for macOS, but I can hack one together with Shortcuts or BetterTouchTool in the meantime.

Love This App

Love this app! It helps me in so many ways… it is now one of my go to apps! I use it for everything from medication reminders to daily tasks and important appointments! I am so relieved to not be reliant on G****** Calendar, which I find to be clunky and not reliable. Thank you for useful, well written appl!

Truly useful and useable

One of the first apps I can really get into for this sort of thing with a great trim interface and well thought out features. It does just what it needs to do. Love it.

Wow!

Ok, maybe it took an app for ADHD people to make me realize I might be a little ADHD myself? I LOVE this app and it works for me in a way most task management apps have not

Vibe-coded garbage.

If I have a reminder set to go off at a specific date and time in the future, this app reminds me every day regardless.
You want to control which list a new reminder goes in? You can't.

With investigating

I think Marco was being rather modest when he announced his app "Unforgettable" on the ATP podcast and that "it might not be for you, because it will keep nagging you" I find its features refreshing and useful for the following reasons; (as someone who has tried to use all the various todo apps and has not stuck with any of them)

1. Anything that is past its due date automatically changes to "Today." No effort required on the users part. The next category is "Tomorrow."
2. Anything after tomorrow coming up in seven days has its own category of "Next 7 Days"
3. Anything scheduled after that 7 days is termed "Next Thirty days."
4. Anything beyond 30 days is categorized as "Beyond."
5. And most of all because all of those categories are listed on the same page with a small bit of scrolling. You really get a feeling of the direction you want to go towards.
6. And you have a 30 day free trial before being charged. I have never encountered such an offer with the developer wanting to make sure that this is what you really want! None of this 3 days or 1 week trial, which you forget about and you wind up with paying for an app for a year because that was all that was offered with the free trial.

NOT just for ADHD folks!

My biggest issue with the built in app is that if I accidentally dismiss the reminder I never get reminded again. Just fixing that 1 issue is making this a huge gain for me!

I have many tasks that just need to get done in the next week, not at a specific time and the way Unforgetful works is perfect for the way my life and work gets done.

The app looks basic, but nice. This is a feature for me: I want to get stuff done not spend time organizing tasks or admiring my task list.

Well done, Marco!

Great experience so far

I really like this app so far. It is just simple enough not to create a barrier for us ADHD kids and advanced enough to be incredibly effective. I’ve been looking for this app for years.

Exceptional

Great focused reminder app. Works just as advertised. Easy to use and allows me to get stuff done. I don’t forget things I meant to do, be it this morning, tomorrow, or to call Mom each Tuesday. Superb.

Bugs me, but in a good way!

Some things must be done today or some specific day. Others, not so much. Unforgetful is the first app I’ve found that expertly handles deferring tasks without stressing me out.

One bit of advice for the trial period: Set a reminder before the end, but you won’t need it 😉

Funktioniert nicht

Die App hat nach einiger Zeit einfach aufgehört Benachrichtigungen zu schicken. Nach mehreren Wochen Funkstille kam heute eine: Die kostenlose Probezeit ist vorbei. Das war’s. Eine Möglichkeit, einen Bugreport beim Entwickler einzureichen habe ich nicht gefunden, Kontaktversuche auf Mastodon und Reddit bezüglich des Bugs wurden ignoriert.

Typical Marco Arment app

Great concept and could be a great app if it actually worked as intended. I had location reminders not work several times now. I've run out of patience to troubleshoot or wait for fixes for Atment apps.

Great app

Exactly the app I needed to remind me
