Most reminder apps ping you once and shrug. BugMe doesn't. BugMe is the persistent, escalating reminder app built for ADHD brains — and anyone whose to-do list keeps losing the fight. Notifications start gentle, then get progressively harder to ignore, so the thing actually gets done. Reasonable. Relentless. On your side. WHY IT WORKS • Escalating nudges — five tiers from a friendly tap to "okay we need to talk" • Smart timing — nudges land when you can act, not while you're asleep • Quiet hours — set your boundaries; BugMe respects them • AI breakdown — paste a vague task, get clear next steps • Calendar + 90-day heatmap to see your week and your streak • Mascots, themes, and a dashboard built to feel like a friend, not a manager BUILT FOR ADHD, USEFUL FOR EVERYONE • Time blindness widget so "later" stops being a black hole • Pick-For-Me mode for when you can't decide where to start • Streak tracking that celebrates progress without punishing slip-ups FREE FOREVER • Up to 5 reminders, push notifications, three escalation tiers, AI breakdown (limited) PRO — $7.99/MONTH • Unlimited reminders, all five tiers • Daily morning + evening digests • Random nudges, custom categories, themes • Priority support PRIVACY FIRST Your reminders are yours.
