Keep the to-dos and notes you do not want to forget right where you can see them. StickySort is a colorful sticky note app for the Lock Screen, Home Screen, and Dynamic Island. Capture tasks, shopping lists, plans, and ideas as individual notes, then check or sort them without losing context. Use a Lock Screen widget for quick access to a note. When you want to see a whole page, start a Live Activity from the page menu. It can display one page at a time for up to 8 hours. On supported iPhones, expand Dynamic Island to view the notes and complete checklist items. On the Home Screen, choose Page View, Pinned Note, Quick Add, Unsorted Count, Sort Reminder, or Checklist. Lock Screen widgets and controls keep important notes and actions close. Write first, organize later. Swipe notes left or right using your own rules, such as “Now / Later” or “Important / Let Go”. Use text notes, checklists, and links; customize colors, backgrounds, and fonts; organize with notebooks and pages; and back up with iCloud. Drawings, photos, flashcards, extra sorting axes, and expanded pages are among the advanced features in StickySort PRO. Premium features are available via App Store auto-renewable subscriptions or a lifetime one-time purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage and cancel subscriptions in your device Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions.

Some things are never finished for good. The trash goes out every Thursday. The water filter needs changing 180 days after the last one. The plants want water on their own schedule, not yours. Again is built for exactly those tasks — the ones that come back. GIVE EVERY TASK ITS OWN RHYTHM • On a schedule — every day, week, two weeks, month, or year, at a time you pick. • After completion — a set number of days after you actually finish it. Do it three days late and everything after shifts with you, instead of nagging you about a date that's already gone. • One-time — for the things you only have to do once. They leave when they're done. A LIST THAT SORTS ITSELF Tasks line up by when they're ready, longest-waiting first, with a marker showing where "ready now" ends and "coming up" begins. Every row tells you where it stands — ready 3 hours ago, ready in 5 days — so a glance is enough. The app icon carries a badge with the count, so you know before you even open it. Swipe a task to finish it on iPhone and iPad, or tick it off on the Mac. Either way it quietly reschedules itself for next time. WORTH LOOKING AT • Give any task an emoji, so you recognize it before you read it • Nine color schemes • Nine app icons to match, so your Home Screen matches your mood • Light, dark, or follow the system ON ALL YOUR DEVICES Again runs on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and keeps your tasks in step through your own iCloud account. There's no account to create, no password, and no server of ours in between. FREE, AND EVERYTHING FOREVER Track up to five tasks for free, with the Classic, Pride, and Trans Pride themes and matching icons. Everything Forever unlocks unlimited tasks, every color scheme, and every app icon. It's one purchase, not a subscription — buy it once, keep it, and share it with your family. PRIVACY No ads, no tracking, no analytics, no data collection. Your tasks live on your device and in your own iCloud account, and nowhere else.
