Remember less. Live a little more. LifeCycle helps you remember the recurring things that keep life running: changing the air filter, booking the dentist, renewing documents, caring for pets, and remembering birthdays. Add a reminder once, choose when it is due and how often it repeats, and keep a little less in your head. A CLEAR VIEW OF YOUR DAY See overdue and due-today reminders together. Mark something done with one tap, undo a completion, or move it to a date that works for you. A SCHEDULE YOU CAN CHANGE Browse upcoming reminders by month, search, and filter by category. Edit any due date. Repeat by days, weeks, months, or years, starting after completion or from a regular scheduled date. A PLACE FOR THE THINGS YOU CARE FOR Keep reminders organized in Library, explore optional ideas, and connect reminders to people and belongings. Import birthdays from Contacts if you choose. Archive reminders without losing their history, then restore them whenever you need them. A LITTLE HELP REMEMBERING Choose your reminder time, keep completion notes and costs, and export a readable copy of your reminders and history. Enjoy light and dark appearances and layouts that adapt to larger text. Start fresh or choose a few suggestions. No account is required. Your reminders are stored locally on your device.
