About

Refill

Features
Read full description

Refill helps you see the small recurring things that are easy to forget because they are not urgent yet. Instead of building another checklist, create glass orbs that slowly drain as time passes. A full orb can wait. A low orb needs attention. An empty orb means it is time. Use Refill for the quiet things that repeat: watering plants, changing filters, washing sheets, practicing guitar, checking the fridge, calling someone, or any routine you want to keep visible without adding another calendar. When the work is done, press and hold to refill the orb. That deliberate reset keeps each completion intentional. Refill works best for repeat upkeep, not endless task lists. It helps the next small thing stay visible until it is done. Privacy Policy: https://refill.300990.xyz/privacy/ Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
