Don't Forget
Read full descriptionHide full description
Don't Forget is the focus companion for minds that move fast. Start one task, get interrupted, always know exactly where to come back. No lists. No system. Nothing forgotten. HOW IT WORKS Start what you're working on. Just name it and go. Don't Forget tracks your time, keeps your task front and center, and stays out of your way. Get interrupted, freely. Something urgent comes up? Tap βSwitchβ. Your current task is automatically parked, timestamped, and surfaced the moment you're ready. A gentle notification reminds you to return 60 seconds later. Resume in one tap. Your interrupted task is right there, exactly where you left it. Nothing to reconstruct. Nothing lost. FEATURES Β· Live Activity & Dynamic Island Your task runs in the Dynamic Island with a live timer β even when you're deep inside another app. Β· Intelligent Task Switching Switch without consequence. Your previous task is parked and waiting, not abandoned. Β· Smart Return Reminders A quiet nudge after every switch: "Go back to this?" Not nagging. Just enough. Β· Task Backlog & Planning Capture future tasks without breaking your current focus. Schedule them with optional due date reminders. Β· Daily & All-Time Statistics Focus time, tasks completed, interruption count, average duration, and completion rate β tracked honestly. Β· macOS Menu Bar Start, switch, and resume tasks without ever leaving your current window. BUILT FOR REAL BRAINS Most productivity apps were built for people who can sit still with a long to-do list. Don't Forget was built for everyone else. For the people who start something, get pulled into something else, and then stare blankly trying to remember what they were doing before. For the people who have been told to "just focus" their entire lives. No guilt. No overwhelm. Just a calm companion that remembers so you don't have to. PRIVACY Your data lives entirely on your device. No account required. No cloud sync. No tracking. Ever.
DayLoad

Most planners show you appointments. DayLoad shows you how full a day really is β before you say yes. PLAN β YOUR DAY AT A GLANCE A fixed week strip on top, the day's hour-by-hour timeline below. "Focus Today" highlights up to three key tasks. Habits with streak counters underneath β check them off, done. A WORKLOAD THAT'S HONEST Every task counts toward the day's load by its duration: green (light), yellow (full), red (overloaded). Decide per activity whether it counts β and set your own daily capacity. A FAMILIAR MONTH VIEW The whole month with your events as an overview. Tap a day to open its plan, long-press to create an event right there. FUTURE INBOX Something comes to mind? Tap, save, move on β it lands in your inbox first, not on the calendar. Drag it onto a time or a day when you're ready, and see what the day already holds. APPLE CALENDAR Your existing events fold into the workload, read-only β nothing is changed. FAST & QUIET No visual overhead, no icon clutter, text before icons. Instant feedback on every check. Light and dark mode. DayLoad is for people who don't want to forget things β and want to notice a day is full before it's too late.
