About

TendCue

Features
Read full description

TendCue is for recurring tasks that should follow when life actually happens, not a rigid calendar date. Use it for changing sheets, replacing filters, watering plants, grooming, household maintenance, and other routines that may happen earlier or later than planned. When you complete a reminder, TendCue calculates the next due time from that actual completion. With TendCue, you can: - Create reminders that repeat by minute, hour, day, week, month, or year. - Complete a task and roll the next due time forward from when it was done. - Snooze a due reminder or choose early and delayed notification offsets. - Correct completion history when you forgot to record a task or entered the wrong time. - Pause and resume a routine without marking it complete. - Sync reminders across your Apple devices with iCloud when available. - View, complete, and snooze reminders from Apple Watch. - Choose the app language and visual theme that work for you. No separate TendCue account is required. Reminders are local-first, with Apple system services used for notifications, iCloud sync, and the Apple Watch experience.
