About

SelfPush

Read full description

SelfPush turns reminders into push notifications you actually want to receive — because you wrote them yourself. Sometimes you already know what you need to hear. You just need to hear it at the right moment. The night before a hard day. Five minutes before a difficult conversation. On the morning of an anniversary you don't want to forget. SelfPush lets you write that message in advance and schedule the notification, so the right words arrive at the right time — from the only voice you fully trust: your own. HOW IT WORKS • Write a short message in your own words • Pick an exact day and time, or use a daily delivery schedule • Let SelfPush choose from your message pool, or use a random delivery window • Your phone delivers it as a normal push notification — tap to read the full message in a clean, focused view • Edit, reschedule, or delete any message at any time WHY SELFPUSH IS DIFFERENT Most reminder and affirmation apps push generic quotes from strangers, generated by an algorithm. SelfPush does the opposite. Every word is yours. There are no curated quotes, no AI-generated affirmations, no daily "wisdom" from people you've never met. Just your own voice, sent forward in time to the version of you who needs it. DESIGNED TO BE QUIET SelfPush uses a soft "Quiet Paper" design — warm whites, hairline borders, a single coral accent. There is nothing to scroll, no feed to refresh, no streak to break. You open the app to write or edit a message, and then you close it. The product happens later, on your lock screen. PRIVACY BY DESIGN • No ads. Ever. We will never sell your attention. • No tracking. We do not run analytics SDKs that profile you. • No account required. There is nothing to sign up for. • Your messages live on your device, and — if you turn on iCloud sync — in your private iCloud container. They never touch our servers. • Export your saved messages to JSON when you want a portable copy. SELFPUSH+ (OPTIONAL ONE-TIME PURCHASE) The Free tier is genuinely useful: 20 messages, one push per day, local storage. SelfPush+ is for people who want to make this a long-term practice: • Unlimited messages • 1, 2, or 3 pushes per day instead of one • Random delivery inside a time window you choose (e.g. between 9am and 6pm) • Start and end dates for focused seasons (e.g. only during exam week) • iCloud sync — write on your iPhone, read on your iPad • Notification history — see every push you've already received • Family Sharing supported It's a one-time purchase. There is no subscription, and there will never be a subscription. PERFECT FOR • Self-coaching before meetings, presentations, interviews, or hard conversations • Habit reminders that don't feel like nagging — because past-you wrote them • Anniversaries, milestones, and dates you don't want to forget • A personal "open this when you feel like quitting" message scheduled six months out • Anyone who has ever wished a wiser, calmer version of themselves could text them at exactly the right moment WHAT WE BELIEVE Your most honest words to yourself shouldn't sit next to an ad. They shouldn't be analyzed by a recommendation engine. They shouldn't be uploaded to anyone's training set. SelfPush is built so that the only person who ever reads what you write is you. Write something kind to your future self today.
