Sticky Tasks works with the way you already remember things - your physical environment.

Log it when you do it. Remember it when you need it. Most people don’t forget everything. They forget what they need — when they need it. Not because it wasn’t important. But because the details got separated from the moment they belonged to. LogWhen is your simple, private, context-aware memory app. It’s not a to-do list. It’s not a habit tracker. It’s not another overloaded productivity system. It’s one place to log life as it happens — and retrieve it later with clarity. - Why LogWhen? Because you’ve asked: • When did I last change the furnace filter? • What paint color did we use? • What was that gift idea? • When was our last date night? • When did this start? • What did we decide in that conversation? You always remember you need something. You just don’t remember the context — when it matters. LogWhen keeps the who, what, when, where, and why connected. - Features - Unlimited Logs - Unlimited Custom Categories (with color-coding) - Unlimited Custom Relationships (people, pets, vehicles, properties, work roles, etc.) - Unlimited Custom Measurements (weight, distance, cost, duration, blood pressure) - Notes - Automatic Draft Saving and Resume - Log Search - Filters - Backdating (log past events with the correct date/time) - Stats (insights on your logging activity) - Views (calendar and heat map views that allow for search and filter) - Quick Add (set up quick adds to easily add events to your log with one tap) - Reminders (set reminders + complete reminder to auto-log the event) - Local-First Storage (on device) - Data Export (csv) - Works Offline (no account required) Private. Simple. Yours. Built to Reduce Pressure — Not Add It No streaks. No guilt loops. No “optimize your entire life” pressure. Just clarity when you need it. Log it when you do it. Remember it when you need it. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
