Loopy is for important things that don't happen every day. Some tasks are easy to forget precisely because they only come up once in a while: booking a dentist appointment, changing bed sheets, treating your pet, getting a haircut, changing your car's oil, renewing a subscription, or taking care of something around the house. They don't need your attention every day—but you don't want to forget them. Loopy keeps these recurring tasks and reminders in one place, so you always know what you've done and when it's time to do it again. And if you do something earlier or later than planned, Loopy adjusts with you. Complete a task on the day you actually did it, and the next due date is calculated from that date—not from the old schedule. For example: a task repeats every 14 days. It was due April 1, but you completed it April 5. The next date becomes April 19. WHAT LOOPY IS FOR • Recurring tasks and reminders that happen weekly, monthly, every few months, yearly, or on your own custom interval • Home maintenance and household chores • Health checkups and appointments • Pet care and treatments • Car maintenance • Personal care • Subscriptions and renewals • Any important task you need to do again later FLEXIBLE RECURRING TASKS • Create tasks with daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, or custom intervals • Choose any custom interval from 1 to 365 days • Set a start date • Mark a task complete earlier, on time, or later than planned • Enter the actual day you completed it • Let Loopy automatically calculate the next due date STAY ORGANIZED • See overdue, today's, and upcoming tasks on one screen • Calendar view for planning ahead • Search by text and repeat type • Swipe to complete, edit, or delete • Keep a history of completed tasks • Archive tasks without deleting their history • Restore archived tasks whenever you need them REMINDERS • Daily summary of today's tasks • Local notifications on your iPhone • No unnecessary notification spam YOUR DATA • Your data starts on your device • Export and import JSON or CSV • Create local backup files • Light, dark, and system themes • Available in English and Russian FREE • Up to 5 active tasks on iPhone PRO • Unlimited tasks • Cloud sync across your devices • AI assistant • Additional Pro features • Available as a subscription or a one-time Lifetime purchase SIGN IN Sign in with Apple, Google, or email to use cloud synchronization and AI features with Pro. Loopy isn't another endless daily to-do list. It's a place for the important things you only need to think about once in a while. Know when you did it. Know when it's time again.
