Some things do not need to be done today—but they are worth remembering. When did I last give my cat a deworming treatment? How long has the water filter been in use? How many days has it been since I watered that monstera? Is it time to replace the toothbrush head? LoopCare is a recurring task and life log built for everyday care. It never asks for a daily check-in or treats a few late days as failure. Log an item when you actually finish it, and the next date is calculated from there. Care for life without being ruled by dates. [TWO WAYS TO MATCH YOUR RHYTHM] Recurring For pet treatments, changing sheets, replacing filters, watering plants, car care, and anything else with a rough cycle. Finish early or late and the next date is recalculated from the actual completion. You can also postpone, skip, or add a past completion. Record Only For things with no fixed schedule when you simply want to know, “When did I last do this?” Record Only keeps each entry and the intervals between them, without creating a next due date or unnecessary reminder. [KEEP EVERYDAY CARE IN ONE PLACE] • Home filters and sections for Needs Attention, Pending, Record Only, and Completed • A Schedule Calendar plus monthly and yearly statistics • A Care Log for completions, postponements, skips, and past entries • Templates for home, pets, plants, supplies, and equipment • Search, groups, archive, restore, and permanent deletion • Custom item colors and icons, six themes, Light and Dark modes, and an iPad layout [LOG FROM THE DEVICES YOU ALREADY USE] • Sync data between iPhone and iPad with iCloud • View, complete, or log again from Home Screen widgets • Complete, postpone, or skip tasks on Apple Watch • Use Siri and Shortcuts to list, complete, or postpone tasks • Connect tasks with Apple Reminders [RELIABLE WAYS TO PROTECT IMPORTANT RECORDS] • Set up automatic iCloud backups, create restore points, and restore after reviewing the selected backup • Export or import LoopCare backup files, even when iCloud is temporarily unavailable [GENTLE GUIDANCE WITHOUT THE PRESSURE] Overdue only means “not done yet.” It does not mean failure. LoopCare uses clear, calm states instead of constant red badges, streak pressure, or punishing language. When life changes pace, LoopCare continues from when you actually finish. [MADE FOR EVERYDAY LIFE] Home: sheets, curtains, storage, and appliance cleaning Pets: deworming, bathing, checkups, and litter boxes Plants: watering, fertilizing, pruning, and repotting Supplies and equipment: filters, toothbrush heads, coffee machines, cars, and instruments Personal care and anything irregular whose last date you want to remember [FREE VERSION AND LOOPCARE PRO] The free version includes LoopCare's core features and up to five active items. Unlock unlimited items with a one-time purchase of LoopCare Pro: • No item limit • No subscription—pay once and keep it • Supports App Store Family Sharing • Supports the continued care and improvement of LoopCare The actual price is shown in the App Store.
