Life’s busy. Remembering shouldn’t be. Notify helps you remember what matters most. It’s your thoughts, turned into instant notifications. We built Notify because we forget things too. Capture a thought before it’s gone and turn it into a lock screen reminder in seconds. Whether it’s something to bring with you, a task for later or an idea you don’t want to lose, just type it and send. You don’t need to choose a date or time to remind yourself now. Notify puts your notes where you’ll see them: on your iPhone lock screen. Use Live Activities for visible reminders you can glance at throughout your day, with a simple way to edit them while they’re active. • Quick reminders, your way Choose a Live Activity, a smaller live notification or a standard notification. Send yourself a quick note now, or schedule a reminder for when you need it. • Capture thoughts even faster Open Notify straight from a lock screen widget. Use Siri to start a reminder, or voice-to-text to get your message down without typing. • Photo reminders Sometimes a picture says it better. Take a photo in Notify and turn it into a Photo Live Activity, so the thing you need to remember is right there on your lock screen. • Ticklists for everyday tasks Keep a short to-do list on your lock screen and tick things off as you go. Schedule a repeating ticklist for your daily routine and start with fresh, unticked tasks each time. • Reminders for later Schedule any notification type once or on a repeating schedule. Change the message, type or schedule when plans change. When a scheduled Live Activity needs you to open Notify to start it, a notification will prompt you. • Notification history and folders Find past reminders, resend a note and organise your notification history into folders with your own names, colours and icons. Deleting a folder keeps your notifications. • Bring your plans together Import events from Apple Calendar and tasks from Apple Reminders to use them as notifications in Notify. • Make Notify feel like yours Choose your theme colour, pick a custom colour and explore a collection of backgrounds, from simple black to animated designs. Create and schedule reminders on your device, even offline. iCloud sync is available with Premium and can be turned off in settings. Notify is free to download. Notify Premium adds photo and ticklist reminders, smaller and standard notifications, history folders, voice-to-text, all backgrounds, imports and more, with a one-time purchase and no subscription. Got a thought you don’t want to forget? Send it to yourself.
