Cadence answers "when did I last…?" Tap once to log. Smart predictions learn your personal rhythm and tell you when each thing is due — no schedules to set, no recurring reminders to configure. Cadence tracks the things you do — but not every day. Oil changes, medication, plant watering, home maintenance, pet care, dentist visits, and everything in between. Life is full of tasks on their own schedule, and forgetting them costs you time, money, and peace of mind. Unlike basic reminder apps, Cadence actually learns YOUR rhythm. Log an event with one tap, and Cadence predicts when you'll need to do it again — no manual scheduling, no recurring reminders to configure. Just smart, automatic tracking. ▸ TRACK ANYTHING ON ANY SCHEDULE • Oil change reminder & maintenance log • Medication tracker & pill reminder • Plant watering schedule • Home maintenance checklist (HVAC filter, bed sheets, cleaning) • Pet care tracker (flea medication, vet visits, grooming) • Haircut tracker, dentist reminder, eye exam schedule • Exercise log, laundry tracker, and more ▸ SMART PREDICTIONS THAT LEARN YOUR PATTERN • Automatically calculates your personal interval for every task • Shows "Usually every 3 days" with confidence percentage • Color-coded urgency: green (on track) → yellow → red (overdue) • Trend arrows show if your habits are improving or slipping • Live-updating timers: "2h 14m ago" — always know where you stand ▸ ZERO FRICTION LOGGING • One-tap logging from beautiful smart cards • Streaks and celebrations make logging feel rewarding • Attach photos and notes to any log entry • Import existing patterns from Apple Reminders automatically ▸ CADENCE PRO — UNLOCK YOUR FULL RHYTHM • Unlimited events (free: 5 events) • AI Rhythm Insights with weekly Cadence Pulse score • Beautiful interval charts and trend analysis • PDF export — share maintenance summaries with family or landlords • Family Sharing — sync household tasks via iCloud • Smart reminders tuned to your personal rhythm ▸ SHARE WITH YOUR HOUSEHOLD • Remind family members: "The HVAC filter is overdue!" • Share streaks and rhythm stats on social media • Family Sharing keeps everyone on the same page ▸ 100% PRIVATE — YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS • All data stored locally on your device • No accounts, no logins, no analytics, no tracking • No servers, no cloud (except optional iCloud Family Sharing) • Import from Reminders — processed on-device only Whether you need a medication reminder, oil change tracker, plant watering schedule, home maintenance log, or just want to answer "when did I last…" — Cadence remembers so you don't have to.

About

Clair App

Read full description

Clair brings your tasks, quick notes, and ideas together in one clean, simple app. No clutter, no sign-in, no subscriptions, just three focused tabs that work the way you think. Todos: Capture tasks the way you'd send a message, type it, hit send, done. Set reminders so nothing slips through. Add priority flags to see what matters most at a glance. Sort your list the way that works for you. Cards: Quick sticky notes for anything you need to jot down fast, a thought, a reminder, a snippet to refer back to later. Choose from a range of colors to organize visually, and sort your cards however you like. Notes: A full notes experience when you need more space to think. Organize with folders, write in Markdown for clean formatting, and sort to find what you need quickly. Make it yours: Customize Clair with accent colors and font options so the app feels like your own. Privacy first: Clair works entirely on your device, with no accounts, no tracking, and no logins. Your data is yours. Clair is aimed at anyone juggling multiple lightweight capture tools, such as a todo list, a notes app, and a place for quick reminders, who wants them combined into one simple interface instead of switching between separate apps. It solves the friction of that context switching by keeping fast task capture, quick notes, and longer form writing in one clean, three tab app.
