Pingy vs Time Jars

Pingy — Reminders That Don't Give Up Pingy is the persistent reminder app for people who struggle to stay focused and keep resetting timers without ever actually doing the task. Most reminder apps ping you once and vanish. Pingy doesn't. It keeps coming back — again and again — until the thing is actually done. HOW IT WORKS Tell Pingy what you need to do and choose how often it should remind you. It'll keep nudging you at that interval until you mark the task complete — straight from the notification with a single tap, or in the app. You can dismiss any individual notification, but Pingy won't let the task quietly disappear. PERFECT FOR - Taking medication on time - Drinking water throughout the day - Starting tasks you keep putting off - Staying focused on what matters - Building better habits - Actually doing the thing instead of just swiping notifications away SIMPLE & EFFECTIVE No complex task management, no overwhelming features, no account to create. Just persistent reminders that keep coming back. Set quiet hours and Pingy stays silent overnight — it picks back up in the morning. Built for people who need that extra accountability push. FEATURES - Customisable reminder intervals — every few minutes to once a day - Persistent notifications that keep coming until the task is done - Complete a task in one tap, from the notification or in-app - Quiet hours so you're never disturbed overnight - Edit a reminder any time without starting over - History and a running count of everything you've done - Full dark mode — follow your system or lock it to light or dark - Clean, minimal interface with no complicated setup - Works fully offline PRIVATE BY DESIGN Pingy collects nothing. No account, no analytics, no tracking. Every reminder stays on your device and never leaves it.

Time Jars is a satisfying visual time tracker built around a simple idea — every 30 minutes of focused work earns you a marble. Drop marbles into your jars to watch your time and effort build up over days, weeks and months. Create jars for each area of your life — work projects, fitness, learning, hobbies — and watch them fill up as you invest time into the things that matter. MARBLE JARS Create as many jars as you like, name them, pick a colour, and start dropping marbles. Each marble represents 30 minutes of focused time. Watch your jars fill up with satisfying physics and animations. TIMER Use the built in timer to track your work sessions. When the timer ends you'll be prompted to log your time and drop your marbles automatically. TASKS & TODOS Create a task list and assign each task to a jar. Tick off tasks as you complete them and log your time directly from the task screen. PLANNER Plan your day, week and month by scheduling your tasks into time slots. See exactly what you should be working on and when. TARGETS Set daily, weekly and monthly marble targets for each jar. Track your progress and celebrate when you hit your goals. STATS View detailed charts showing how you've spent your time across days, weeks, months and years. See which goals are getting your attention and which need more focus. - Works fully offline — your data stays on your device - Dark and light mode - Satisfying marble physics and animations - Visual progress tracking - No subscription required
