Some things are not tasks. They have no fixed schedule, but you still want to know when they last happened. Ormago remembers those moments for you—from watering plants and changing an air filter to pet care and shared household routines. It does not plan your future. It simply keeps a trace of what already happened. EVENTS, NOT TASKS • Create events with a name, icon, and color. • Tap once when something happens—no forms, notes, or checklists. • See how long ago it happened and browse its simple history. • Add an optional local reminder to a personal event. PERSONAL AND SHARED SPACES • Keep everyday events in your personal space. • Create a shared space for a family, home, or small group. • Invite people with a private link. • When one member records an event, everyone in the space can see the update. WIDGET-FIRST • See the last time directly on your Home Screen. • Record an event from its widget without opening Ormago. • Use a space widget for a compact overview of shared events. QUIET BY DESIGN • Start immediately without creating an account. • Optionally use Sign in with Apple for account continuity. • No public profile, social feed, ads, or chat. Ormago | Let what happened leave its trace. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
