Hi there, here are Nadine & Robin, the two founders of nag. Most reminder apps remind you once and then give up. nag doesn't. It comes back, over and over, until you actually mark the thing as done. That's the whole idea. WHY WE BUILT IT We forgot things. Small things like paying a bill, taking a pill, redeeming a coupon. Recurring things like the compost, the laundry, drinking enough water. So we tried the reminder apps out there (more than a hundred of them sat on our phones) and we always hit the same two walls. First, they remind you once and then go quiet. A reminder arrives at a bad moment, you swipe it away, and it's gone for good. We wanted one that keeps coming until the job is done. A few apps could do it, but they gave up in endurance testing after a couple of weeks, so you could never really rely on them. Second, they are either bloated with features you never asked for, or so simple they break on a real repeat. We wanted an app that does a few things better than anyone else. So we built nag. We have been working on it with several people since 2019. Every reminder app can fire once. What separates them is the second reminder, and the fiftieth. The one you swiped away at a red light. The monthly one on the 31st. The yearly one in a leap year. Most apps quietly drop those, and you find out when it is already too late. We have spent seven years on exactly those cases. It is the least glamorous work in software, and it is the entire product. WHAT YOU GET Reminders that don't give up Firing once is easy. Coming back is the hard part. Every repeat is re-checked against a reference implementation before we ship a release, so your monthly reminder lands on the right day. An overdue nag comes back at the interval you choose, every 5 minutes, every 15, or hourly, until you tick it off. Postpone straight from the notification +10 minutes, +1 hour, +1 day, or done. The app stays closed. Repeats that hold From "every day at 7" to "every 3rd Monday of the second month". Monthly and yearly nags land on the right day, every time. Set a reminder in seconds Write it the way you would say it, or use the time picker with 12 presets you can change. Focus timer, logbook and widget Time a task, look back at everything you finished, and keep what's next on your Home Screen. Works fully offline You don't need internet to get reminded. Even after three weeks without a connection, your reminders fire as scheduled. No account needed nag works completely without one. Sign in with Apple or Google only if you want your reminders backed up and synced across devices. WHAT OUR USERS SAY "I really like that the app pings reminders several times, so if I miss the first, it keeps going. Instead of silently sitting in the notification tray." "I love it! It's on my home screen next to my calendar. Love that the reminders are simultaneously REALLY easy to make short ones, AND able to make detailed ones." "Awesome! Saved me from multiple alarms. My daughter and I both have ADHD and have such a difficult time remembering small details, so we were constantly forgetting keys, lunch, homework, meeting notes." SUBSCRIPTION nag comes with a free trial. It then continues as an auto-renewing subscription. The trial length and the price for your country are shown in the app before you buy, and you can cancel anytime in your App Store settings. No ads, no selling of your data. The subscription is what keeps nag running and bug-free for years. Terms of Use: https://nagreminder.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://nagreminder.com/privacy If you have questions, just write to us.

EasyDue

EasyDue is a reminders app for the things you actually have to do. Most reminder apps notify you once. If you're driving, in a meeting, or half asleep, that notification is gone and so is the task. EasyDue keeps nudging until the thing is genuinely done. CAPTURE IN PLAIN LANGUAGE Type "pay rent on the 1st of every month" or "call the dentist Friday at noon" and EasyDue works out the date and the repeat as you type. Add a #category to file it. Paste a link and it moves into its own field. ALERTS THAT DON'T GIVE UP Turn on Auto Snooze and an overdue reminder re-alerts on your schedule — every minute if that's what it takes — until you complete or postpone it. Press and hold any alert to mark it done or push it to one of your own quick times, without opening the app. DONE MEANS DONE EVERYWHERE Complete a reminder on your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch and every other device goes quiet. Everything syncs privately through your own iCloud account. BUILT FOR REAL SCHEDULES • Repeats that match life — monthly on the last weekday, every third Tuesday, or counted from when you actually finish • Twelve Quick Access Times you define, one tap away in the app and on the notification itself • Categories with colours, so you can see at a glance what a reminder belongs to • Vacation Mode — mark reminders or whole categories to stay silent while you're away, then pick up with the next occurrence • Urgent alerts that break through Focus modes • Notes and a link on any reminder, so "pay rent" can take you straight to your bank • Logbook of everything you've completed • Home screen widget, Apple Watch app, and a watch complication • Import your backup from Due PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No analytics. No servers. Your reminders live on your devices and in your personal iCloud, and we cannot read them. EASYDUE PRO The free tier keeps 3 active reminders. EasyDue Pro removes the cap and adds Urgent alerts and Due backup import: $1.99/month or $10.99/year. • Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. • Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. • Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
