Keeping track of who needs to rotate and when can be a headache. Rotations makes it easy. Set up a buddy system for the entire shift in seconds, whether you're rotating outside order takers, expeditors, or any other positions. Simply configure the rotation schedule, and your team can check the app to know exactly when it's their turn to switch, taking the responsibility off your shoulders. For more complex setups, like rotating 1 person every hour and 3 people every 30 minutes, use iPad's Split View feature. You can run two instances of the app side by side, each with its own rotation, making it easy to manage multiple positions and keep everyone rotating smoothly.

Passport and visa renewals, vehicle inspections, car and home insurance, bills, subscriptions, birthdays and anniversaries: all in one list, sorted by time. A LIST SORTED BY TIME Your reminders sit in Overdue, Today, Tomorrow, This week, This month and Later. The closest date is always on top, and urgency colors show what needs attention at a glance. ALERTS THAT SET THEMSELVES The further away a date is, the earlier the first alert arrives. For a passport that expires in a year you hear about it three months, one month, one week and one day before. Pick your own alerts for any reminder if you like, and set your alert time and quiet hours. ADD IN THREE TAPS Title, date, save. Add with ready made suggestions, use "Save and new" to enter several in a row, or paste a whole list to add dozens at once. REPEATING DATES Set birthdays, yearly renewals and monthly payments to repeat. When you complete one, the next date appears on its own. TAGS, SEARCH AND BULK ACTIONS Group reminders with your own tags, search them, and complete, postpone or delete several at once. Deleted reminders can be restored for 30 days. WORKS OFFLINE Add and edit without a connection. Everything syncs when you are back online.
