Instantly see how much time has passed since you last did something so you can make confident daily decisions without guessing. Did you empty the trash 2 days ago or 10 days ago? Knowing the exact time elapsed gives you the context to make the right call without relying on memory. Whether you need a reliable last time tracker, a flexible routine log, or a clear visual of your home, pet, and health statuses, DoneAgo keeps your life organized. HOW IT WORKS Tap to update: After you finish an activity, tap the card to update its status. The timer resets and records the exact timestamp automatically. Track by states: Define custom states that change over time (e.g., Cleaned/Dirty, Fed/Pending, Done/Due). Notes: Attach specific notes to any logs so you remember the exact context later. OTHER FEATURES: Photos: Attach a photo to any log so you can see what actually happened at a glance, not just rely on memory. Automation: Set a time threshold per state. When time runs out, DoneAgo automatically advances the status on its own (e.g., Watered automatically moves to Needs Water after 3 days). Widgets: Pin your status tracker directly to your screen. Check how long it's been and update it with a single tap without opening the app. Notifications: Receive alerts only when a tracker has been stuck in a certain status for too long. Your rules, your thresholds. Visual History Log: View historical patterns over time to see the natural rhythm of your routines. Fully Customizable: Organize everything by custom categories (Home, Health, Pets, Hobbies). Ad-Free Experience: No annoying ads or pop-ups interrupting your dashboard. Stop guessing when you last did something. Open DoneAgo, look at the relative time, and make the right decision for your day.

Your brain isn't built for holding onto things. BrainBuffer is. Open the app, type a thought, tap send. That's it — no folders to choose, no categories to pick, no setup standing between you and getting something out of your head. Simply effective. CAPTURE WITHOUT FRICTION Just type. BrainBuffer strips away every extra step between having a thought and having it safely out of your head. DATES THAT WRITE THEMSELVES Type "call mom tomorrow" or "email the client in three days" and BrainBuffer picks up the timing automatically — no date picker required. Need something more specific? Tap the calendar icon to set an exact time instead. A LIST THAT SORTS ITSELF Unfinished thoughts float to the top. Pinned ones lead the pack. Anything scheduled soonest comes first. You never have to organize anything — open the app and the most important thing is already waiting at the top. SEE YOUR DAY AT A GLANCE Switch to Timeline view to see everything grouped into Overdue, Today, Tomorrow, This Week, and Later — a clear shape for your day without lifting a finger. REMINDERS THAT ACT, NOT JUST ALERT When something comes due, BrainBuffer lets you know — and you can snooze it an hour, push it to tomorrow, or mark it done right from the notification. No need to even open the app. ALWAYS ON YOUR HOME SCREEN Add the BrainBuffer widget to see your latest thoughts without unlocking your phone. STAYS WITH YOU Turn on iCloud Sync and your buffer follows you across every device signed into your iCloud account. Prefer to keep everything local? Turn it off anytime — your data, your call. MADE TO GET OUT OF YOUR WAY Pick your accent color, choose light or dark mode, and switch between List and Timeline views — BrainBuffer adapts to you, not the other way around. BrainBuffer isn't trying to be a project manager or a life-organization system. It's the fastest possible path from "I need to remember this" to "it's handled." Empty your brain. Trust the buffer.
