Break free from routine or start a new one with Stoobs! Receive randomly timed reminders that inspire you to try something new, shake up your habits, and bring more variety into your day. Unlike traditional calendars and reminder apps, where everything is scheduled for an exact time, Stoobs uses the power of surprise to capture your full attention, so it feels more natural, less repetitive and much harder to ignore. Instead of reminding you at exactly the same time every day, Stoobs delivers reminder notifications at random moments within the time ranges you choose. List reminders make Stoobs even more varied: you choose a theme and add several possible messages. Stoobs then picks both a random time and a random item from your list. A mindfulness reminder might send a breathing exercise one time and a short reflection prompt the next. A movement reminder might choose squats, stretching or jumping jacks. Stoobs doesn't limit how many reminders you can schedule. Whether you want a few reminders each week or dozens every day, Stoobs keeps them coming. Make Stoobs yours! Customize: • Notification text, color and notes • Daily, weekly, monthly or yearly intervals • Weekdays and time windows • Repetitions per interval • Minimum time between reminders • Random entries from your own list, such as messages, quotes or exercises around one theme Need inspiration? Explore our collection of examples: • Drink water four times a day • Stand up and stretch five times a day • Take a movement break three times a day on weekdays • Take a mindful breath three times a day • Practice a mindfulness exercise twice a day • Stop scrolling and put your phone away every evening • Read a page of a book once a day • Call some friends twice a week • Water your plants once a week • Review your budget once a month • Declutter one small area once a month • Back up your important files once a month • Change your passwords once a year • Schedule a dental check-up once a year • Review your personal goals once a month • Write down one thing you're grateful for once a day • Send yourself a motivational message twice a day • Get some fresh air twice a day • Practice a random mindfulness exercise three times a day • Receive a random motivational quote four times a day • Pick a random workout exercise once a day • Get a random journaling prompt every evening Your privacy comes first. Stoobs doesn't collect any personal data. When you start your journey, an anonymous account is created automatically—no sign-up, no personal information required. Your reminders are for you, and only you. Note: Push reminders require notification permission and internet connection

You know all those things you keep meaning to do? Learn to juggle. Reorganize the garage. Try that new coffee place across town. They float around in your head, taking up space, making you feel guilty for not doing them. Maybe... Later is where those tasks go to live — until you're ready for them. Think of it as a box sitting in your kitchen. Drop in notes about things you'd like to do someday. When you find yourself with a free afternoon and a spark of motivation, reach in and pull one out. That's it. No due dates. No priority levels. No red badges screaming at you. HOW IT WORKS Add tasks whenever they pop into your head. Give them a name, a rough time estimate, and optionally a category — that's all you need. When you're ready to do something, tap Pull a Task. Tell the app how much time you have, pick a category (or don't), and it'll find something that fits. The app is smart about matching. It considers: - How much time you actually have right now - What day it is and what time of day - Where you are (for location-based tasks) - Tasks you've recently dismissed You might get exactly what you expected, or something you completely forgot about. That's the fun part. DESIGNED FOR HOW YOUR BRAIN ACTUALLY WORKS Traditional task apps assume you'll dutifully review and prioritize lists. Maybe... Later assumes you won't — and that's perfectly fine. - No overwhelming lists to scroll through - No guilt from overdue items (nothing is ever overdue) - Tasks come to you — you don't have to hunt for them - Low friction to add, low friction to do - Dismiss a task with zero consequences — it goes back in the box FEATURES - Pull tasks matched to your available time, category, and location - Set preferred days and times for tasks - Add locations with GPS radius so tasks surface when you're nearby - Recurring tasks with cooldown periods - "Put off for" delays so new tasks don't surface immediately - Rewards — write yourself a little treat note for finishing - Works completely offline, all data stays on your device Maybe... Later won't fix your life. But it might help you finally do that thing you've been meaning to do.
