Since remembers the recurring things that never quite belong on a normal to-do list. Changing the sheets. Replacing a toothbrush. Testing the smoke alarms. Add something once, choose how often it should happen, then mark it Done when you actually do it. Since schedules the next time from there, so your routines move with real life instead of slipping out of sync with a fixed calendar. Open the app and you can see what’s due, what needs attention today and what can wait. • Repeat routines every few days, weeks or months • Mark something Done and let the next due date move automatically • See a simple Due, Today and Later view • Add an optional reminder notification at the time you choose • Edit, remove or undo without turning your life into a project plan • Sync your routines with iCloud, with no separate account required Since is for the little recurring jobs you want handled, without keeping all of them in your head.
