Miss notifications? See them but think "I'll do it later" and completely forget? Looopit is a persistent reminder app designed for your recurring tasks. It simply won't stop nudging you until you actually get them done. ■ The 3 Levels of Persistence [1. Persistent Alerts] Notifies you at the exact time and repeats until completed. You have full control over the intervals and frequency. [2. Relentless Snooze] Keeps sending snooze alerts at your specified interval until you explicitly tap "Done". [3. iOS 26 Full-Screen Notifications] Fully compatible with iOS 26 full-screen alerts. For your most critical reminders, Looopit takes over the entire screen so you literally can't miss them. ■ Key Features - Flexible Recurrence: "The 3rd Wednesday," "End of the month," or "Every 5 days"—handles any schedule you throw at it. - Timeless Tasks: Registered a task with only a date? Get bulk reminders at your preferred times throughout the day. -Chime Mode: Just need a gentle nudge? This mode chimes to let you know it's time—no swiping or completion required. - Smart Tags: Categorize with tags like [Work] or [Family], and filter your list instantly. - Quiet Hours: Automatically pauses snoozes during your bedtime or deep focus hours, and resumes them when you're ready. - Time Zone Support: Traveling abroad? Choose to be alerted at your "Usual Time" or "Local Time". ■ For 'Due' Users Like Due, Looopit excels at recurring routines and persistent nudges. But it goes a step further: you can set multiple days of the week for a single task, or easily add end conditions like "End after 5 times" or "Repeat until [Date]". ■ Pricing The free version allows you to complete up to 15 tasks per month. A monthly subscription removes this limit. That’s it—simple, transparent, and fair. ■Terms of Use: https://looopit.1-b.jp/en/terms.html

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Looopit at none against RepGate's shown. Looopit also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.2). RepGate's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 days). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
