Time Kept is a time-tracking app designed for recording important dates and memories. It doesn't rush you to achieve more; it simply reminds you at the right moment: some people are worth thinking of early, some days are worth preparing for, and some past moments are worth cherishing. In "Days", you can view upcoming birthdays, anniversaries, and promises, while easily setting up custom reminders and preparation checklists. In "Memories", enrich your records with text and photos, and gently scroll through past moments along a beautiful timeline. You can also turn a significant date or memory into a clean, minimalist time card to share with those who walked alongside you. Key Features Important Dates: Track birthdays, anniversaries, promises, and major life events. Flexible Repetition: Set events to repeat weekly, monthly, yearly, or keep them as one-time milestones. Smart Reminders: Custom alerts ranging from 30 days in advance to the exact day. Preparation Checklists: Turn anxious waiting into calm, organized preparation.
