Time Buddy

Take your medicine, put out the trash, pick up the kids. These daily and weekly habits aren’t quite worth adding to your calendar — but they’re easy to forget. Register a habit and you’ll get a notification at the time you set. See it, and you’re done. No tapping, no dismissing required. ■ Notified. Nothing more to do. Alarms need to be stopped. Reminders need to be completed. That friction adds up. This app’s notifications are just banners. No additional action needed. ■ Repeat daily or on specific days Set patterns like “Take medicine every day at 8:00” or “School pickup Mon, Wed, Fri at 7:30.” Combine any days you like. Going on a trip? Toggle it off — no need to delete and recreate. ■ See your week at a glance A weekly grid shows all your notifications as color blocks by day and time. Your whole weekly rhythm, in one view. ■ Use it for Health (medication, supplements, eye drops), family (pickup, bath time, pet feeding), household chores (trash, cleaning, watering plants), habits (language learning, reading, meditation, journaling), and more. ■ Key features - Create notifications (title, time, days, sound, color) - Repeat daily or on specific days of the week - List view (time-focused cards) - Weekly grid view (color blocks by day and time) - ON/OFF toggle to pause without deleting - Notifications delivered even in the background Your daily rhythm, handled with a notification.

Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: ココトモ at 3 against Time Buddy's 1. ココトモ also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
