MinutesLeft is a widget app that displays your train and bus departure times — and personal deadlines like "leave home by 8:00" — as red dots on the face of an analog clock. An alarm clock only tells you when to wake up. Everything after that — when to leave, which train to catch — is something you have to remember yourself. Calendar notifications just ping you about one event at a time; they can't show you, at a glance, how several things are closing in on you right now. minirefu puts all your time constraints on a single clock face, so you can tell at a glance what's coming up and how soon. "Missed this train? No rush, the next one's coming soon." "Missed that one? Better hurry, there's a long gap before the next." That rhythm — different for every line — becomes obvious just by looking at how the dots line up on the dial. 【Key Features】 • Register train and bus departure times by day type (weekday / Saturday / Sunday & holidays) • Also add one-off errands or milestones like "leave home by 8:00" • Check at a glance from the home screen widget — no need to open the app • Highlight the last train or bus with a distinctive double-ring mark • Just snap a photo of a timetable for automatic recognition (processed on-device by default; register your own API key for higher-accuracy cloud processing) • Freely customize the look — clock face background, hand color, and each dot's color/shape/icon (some options are premium) Whether it's a rushed morning or a race against the clock on your way home, minirefu shows you your current time situation at a glance.

The call

Pushover Notifications also leads on device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). みにれふ's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs monthly). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
