Kept is a minimal app for logging and tracking when you did what. No hassling you with notifications or daily streaks, just a log of what you did and when. There are plenty of times in a day when you might find yourself asking; when did I: - Take my vitamins? - Water that plant? - Change the sheets? - Get a haircut? Kept keeps track of it all, so you don’t have to. Kept isn’t another to-do list, nor is it an extra reminders app. Kept will never tell you when to do things or add to an already growing heap of notifications that most people either clear away without checking or leave to pile up over days. Instead, Kept lets you know when you’ve got things done when you want to know it. Kept works seamlessly across all of your devices, with support for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Mac. Kept+ allows you to pay once, and get access to Pro features for everyone in your family. - Tasks & Tags: Add tasks with distinct titles and add an icon of a sketch, symbol, or emoji to distinguish tasks at a glance. Add tags to categorise, sort, and filter your tasks with ease, to easily find the task you’re looking for at a glance. - Logging: Log tasks quickly and easily, with optional comments for future reference or to remind yourself about something you did differently for the next time you go to log a task. With Kept+, you can also add an image and a location to your log, giving you extra clarity in the future. - History: With Kept, you can check either an individual tasks history, or the combined history across all of your tasks. See what comments you added previously, reference an image from a previous log, or check where you were when you completed a task. - Apple Watch: With Kept+, you can check and log tasks straight from your wrist without the need for your phone to be nearby. - Widgets: Keep track of your tasks and log them directly from your Home Screen without needing to open the app, with Kept+. - iCloud Sync: Kept syncs your data across all the devices you use it on, keeping your tasks and history up to date across all of your devices. - Deep iOS integration: Build shortcuts with Kept to log tasks in a way that works best for you, and use your voice to speak with Siri about your tasks, your history, to log a task or check when you last did something. - Accessibility: Features full support for VoiceOver and Reduce Motion. - Privacy first: Kept works completely offline, and all data stays on your device and in your personal iCloud, where it stays private and accessible only to you.
