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.

Miss notifications? See them but think "I'll do it later" and completely forget? Looopit is a persistent reminder app designed for your recurring tasks. It simply won't stop nudging you until you actually get them done. ■ The 3 Levels of Persistence [1. Persistent Alerts] Notifies you at the exact time and repeats until completed. You have full control over the intervals and frequency. [2. Relentless Snooze] Keeps sending snooze alerts at your specified interval until you explicitly tap "Done". [3. iOS 26 Full-Screen Notifications] Fully compatible with iOS 26 full-screen alerts. For your most critical reminders, Looopit takes over the entire screen so you literally can't miss them. ■ Key Features - Flexible Recurrence: "The 3rd Wednesday," "End of the month," or "Every 5 days"—handles any schedule you throw at it. - Timeless Tasks: Registered a task with only a date? Get bulk reminders at your preferred times throughout the day. -Chime Mode: Just need a gentle nudge? This mode chimes to let you know it's time—no swiping or completion required. - Smart Tags: Categorize with tags like [Work] or [Family], and filter your list instantly. - Quiet Hours: Automatically pauses snoozes during your bedtime or deep focus hours, and resumes them when you're ready. - Time Zone Support: Traveling abroad? Choose to be alerted at your "Usual Time" or "Local Time". ■ For 'Due' Users Like Due, Looopit excels at recurring routines and persistent nudges. But it goes a step further: you can set multiple days of the week for a single task, or easily add end conditions like "End after 5 times" or "Repeat until [Date]". ■ Pricing The free version allows you to complete up to 15 tasks per month. A monthly subscription removes this limit. That’s it—simple, transparent, and fair. ■Terms of Use: https://looopit.1-b.jp/en/terms.html

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pingy at none against Looopit's 3. Pingy also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Looopit's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
