Our app is the only reminder app thats simpler yet smarter than pen and paper.

We believe that the world DO NOT need another cluttered reminder app that it’s so complicated to use that you give up after a few tries. This is where Repose comes in handy! Add a reminder SUPER FAST (often in less than 2 seconds!) about what you need to be reminded about and move on with what you where doing. Simple as that! THE TRICKY PART WITH REMINDERS We believe the hardest part about remembering stuff is the first step - to get it ”down on paper” - and that’s the reason why we have focused 100% on making it ridiculously easy to use when it comes to writing the reminder! You can use Repose with text only or write the reminder and add a time with our pre-defined time suggestions. Nice, huh? DO YOU HAVE (LESS THAN) 2 SECONDS? Good!
