IAlwaysForget
Read full descriptionHide full description
You can forget. We will be there to remind you. IAlwaysForget sends you one email every morning with what you have to do today. That is all. No notifications, no badges, no overdue counter. WRITE IT THE WAY IT COMES You type "call the garage tuesday at 10am" and it is filed: the date, the time, the reminder. "Take the bins out every thursday evening" becomes a task that comes back. "Buy more coffee" waits with no date. No form to fill in, and the reading is shown to you before anything is saved. THE MORNING SHEET One email, in the morning, with the day: your routines, what falls today, and the few tasks you put first the evening before. The rest of the time, nothing happens. THE TASKS THAT COME BACK A recurring task starts again from the day you actually do it, not from the day it was due. Water the plants every 3 days, change the extractor hood filter every 6 months, service the boiler every year. A LIBRARY OF REMINDERS ALREADY WRITTEN Seventy-four everyday maintenance reminders - home, vehicle, health, paperwork - each with its interval and the reason behind it. Adopt one in a single tap if it applies to you. YOUR CALENDAR, IF YOU WANT IT An address your own calendar reads to show your dated reminders and habits. Off by default. THROW A THOUGHT WITHOUT OPENING THE APP A "Throw a thought" shortcut, available in the Shortcuts app, to Siri and on the Action button. The thought goes, and you go back to what you were doing. WHAT WE DO NOT DO No streaks to keep, no points, no badges, no notifications. No advertising, no selling your data. What you write stays on our server, in France. There is only one version of IAlwaysForget: everyone gets everything.
