Write it the way you'd say it. "Dentist Thursday at 10" becomes a reminder — and Nodino makes sure it rings. Nodino is a reminder app that does one thing, well: it takes what's on your mind and hands it back at the right moment — at a time, on a day, or at a place. No clutter, no learning curve. FAST BY DESIGN • Type it like you'd say it: the date comes out of the sentence by itself, and Nodino shows you what it understood before saving. • Categories pick themselves as you type, worked out on your device. • Swipe to postpone or delete, with Undo for when you change your mind. • The top of the screen tells you how your day looks: "2 today, 1 overdue". ALERTS YOU CAN COUNT ON • On time, every time — and a gentle morning nudge while something stays overdue. • Repeat daily, weekly, on chosen days, monthly, every 6 months or yearly, with a first and last day if you need them. • All-day reminders, for things that have a day but not an hour. • Pause a repeating reminder while you're away. NODINO PRO • Unlimited active reminders (the free version keeps up to 3 at a time). • Reminders by place: when you arrive somewhere or when you leave — once, or on every visit. • Next up on your Lock Screen: a live countdown in the Dynamic Island, with Done and Later — and you choose how early, reminder by reminder. • Nodino on Apple Watch: see what's next, tick it off, dictate new reminders. • Up to three alerts on one reminder, and snooze buttons you choose. • Interactive widgets, Siri and Shortcuts. • Extra notification sounds and premium themes. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your reminders sync through your own private iCloud. Suggestions are worked out on your device, and your places are never sent anywhere. No ads, no account. In English, Italian, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese and Chinese.
