Can't Forget Life is full of tasks that don't belong on a calendar but are genuinely annoying when you forget them — taking your vitamins, watering the plants, rotating your car tires. Can't Forget keeps track of them so you don't have to. Reminders • Create activities with a schedule, or leave them unscheduled and mark them whenever you get around to them. • Schedules can repeat once, daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly — with flexible multiples (every 4 weeks, every 3 months, etc.) • "Daily" activities can be set to any combination of days: weekdays, weekends, M/W/F, or any custom mix. • Push notifications remind you when it's time, and the app badge shows exactly how many are overdue for today. • Choose a custom notification sound for each activity — or set it to silent. Widget • Add a Can't Forget widget to your Home Screen to see today's pending activities at a glance. • Subscribers can mark activities Done or Skip them directly from the widget — no need to open the app. Calendar Screen • See what's coming up, what's already done, and what's overdue — all in one place. • Tap an activity to mark it Done, or Skip it to clear the badge without counting it against you. Unskip anytime to restore it. • Browse past days to review your history, or look ahead to see what's coming. • Fine-tune completion times in the Done list for accurate record-keeping. Activity Screen • Full search makes it easy to find any activity, even when your list grows long. • Tap any activity to review its schedule, browse its history, or change its settings. Settings • Eight color schemes to make the app feel like yours. • Control how far in advance weekly, monthly, yearly, and one-time activities appear in the Coming Soon section.
