Small Todo is for the tasks you keep putting off. Buy it once and that's the end of it: no subscription, no ads, no account, and nothing extra no matter how much you use it. The AI runs on your iPhone, on Apple Intelligence or a model you download, so it still works with no signal. You can also bring your own API key to use an online model (it connects directly to the provider; we can't see your data). Type the thing you're dreading, like "do laundry", "clean my desk", or "renew my passport", and an AI running entirely on your iPhone breaks it into steps so small they're hard to say no to. Get the laundry basket. Empty it onto the chair. You know, achievable things. Then comes the fun part: checking them off. A GAME, NOT A CHORE Every tick is a little celebration. The checkbox squashes and pops, particles burst, confetti cannons fire from the corners, and your phone gives a satisfying thump. Check steps off quickly and you build combos. Finish a list and the whole screen celebrates with you. (Reduce Motion is fully respected.) CHANGE OF PLANS? JUST SAY SO Need to tweak the plan? Type it right into the list, like "my basket is already empty" or "add a little reward at the end", and the steps reshape themselves. What you've already done stays done. IT PLANS AROUND YOUR LIFE Keep small facts in Memory, like "I live in a second-floor walk-up" or "I won't touch coriander", and Small Todo takes them into account every time it breaks a task down. Everything in Memory is yours to see, edit, or delete. COMPLETELY PRIVATE, FULLY OFFLINE Everything happens on your device. With Apple Intelligence or the on-device model, your todos, your requests, your Memory: none of it ever leaves your phone. No account, no cloud, no tracking, no ads. It even works in airplane mode. CHOOSE YOUR MODEL Use Apple Intelligence, or download an open-weights model (Qwen3.5, recommended) that runs locally instead. Your pick, in Settings. A SOFTER KIND OF SOFTWARE No harsh red badges. No guilt-trip streaks. Just a soft, plump, hand-drawn design, encouraging words, and the quiet satisfaction of watching a scary task become a list of easy ones. Small Todo requires Apple Intelligence (iPhone 15 Pro or newer) or a device capable of running the downloadable on-device model.

Remi is the reminder app that listens. Just speak, and Remi's AI turns your words into perfectly structured reminders — with the right title, date, time, list, and subtasks — so you can capture a thought in seconds and get on with your day. KEY FEATURES • VOICE-FIRST CAPTURE Tap the mic and talk naturally. No forms, no fiddling. Remi transcribes your speech and files it for you. • AI THAT ORGANIZES FOR YOU Smart parsing reads natural language like "remind me to call the dentist tomorrow at 9" and fills in the details. When you're offline, an on-device parser keeps working, so you can capture reminders anywhere. • Calendar Sync Keep all dated reminders, including completed ones, visible in Apple Calendar using a writable iCloud, Google, Exchange, or local calendar. Remi stays the source of truth and keeps titles, notes, subtasks, recurrence, and schedule changes up to date without adding duplicate alerts. • STAY ON TRACK Reminders, lists, and home-screen widgets keep everything in view, and timely notifications make sure nothing slips. • SIX MORANDI THEMES Choose from six carefully designed Morandi color themes paired with light and dark modes for a sophisticated, calming aesthetic that adapts to your mood. • BILINGUAL — ENGLISH & 中文 Remi understands and speaks both languages. Switch anytime and dictate in whichever language you're thinking in. • PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your reminders live on your device and in your own iCloud. No account, no ads, no tracking. Reminder text is used only to create your reminders. • SYNC ACROSS YOUR DEVICES Turn on iCloud sync to keep your reminders, lists, and subtasks up to date everywhere — through your own private iCloud. Subscription: • Remi offers auto-renewable subscriptions (monthly and yearly) for premium features. • Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. • The subscription automatically renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. • Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period. • You can manage or cancel subscriptions in your App Store account settings after purchase.
