## What is Yap! Reminders?

Yap! works on the Apple Reminders and Calendar you already use — nothing to re-enter, no new system to learn. Anything due gets repeated, politely persistent alerts until you snooze it or mark it done: Yap! never gives up, and it never breaks through your Focus or Do Not Disturb.

ONE SMALL PRICE, ONCE. No subscription, no ads, no account, no tracking — a rare thing these days.

Ever miss one little reminder and lose the whole task? Yap! re-alerts as often as every minute, or as gently as you choose, until things actually get done. Done in Yap! means done in Apple Reminders, instantly.

POLITELY PERSISTENT. Waiting yaps stay visible on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, and resume the moment your Focus lifts. Need one reminder to be LOUD? Mark it Urgent in Apple's Reminders app — Apple's Urgent alerts work alongside Yap!.

• Works on your existing Apple Reminders & Calendar — your data never leaves your device
• Snooze right from the notification: your presets, or type any duration ("45m", "2h", "1:30", "half an hour")
• Live Activity shows what's waiting, even during Focus
• Apple Watch too: snooze or finish a reminder from your wrist
• Pick your yap sound — built-in or import your own
• Pay once, own it forever: nothing renews, nothing recurs
• No account, no tracking — nothing is collected, ever

Built for ADHD brains and anyone whose reminders deserve a second bark.
