I made this app for myself as the normal reminder apps just allowed me to ignore the reminders. This app really doesn't let you ignore them, it'll annoy you every minute until you deal with the reminder! I figured other people might be like me too so here it is! Dealing with the reminder might be stopping it as you've taken care of the task, or snoozing it as now might not be the best time. Your reminders can be recurring, every day of the week, or select days of the week or even monthly. Use Insistent as a reminder for anything that you can't afford to forget; taking a pill, paying a bill, doing a chore, calling your dearest mother, you name it! This app could be useful for those with ADHD where things out of sight are quickly forgotten. Word of caution though, don't let the app rule your life and bombard you with reminders throughout the day as that could end up making things worse!

Miss notifications? See them but think "I'll do it later" and completely forget? Looopit is a persistent reminder app designed for your recurring tasks. It simply won't stop nudging you until you actually get them done. ■ The 3 Levels of Persistence [1. Persistent Alerts] Notifies you at the exact time and repeats until completed. You have full control over the intervals and frequency. [2. Relentless Snooze] Keeps sending snooze alerts at your specified interval until you explicitly tap "Done". [3. iOS 26 Full-Screen Notifications] Fully compatible with iOS 26 full-screen alerts. For your most critical reminders, Looopit takes over the entire screen so you literally can't miss them. ■ Key Features - Flexible Recurrence: "The 3rd Wednesday," "End of the month," or "Every 5 days"—handles any schedule you throw at it. - Timeless Tasks: Registered a task with only a date? Get bulk reminders at your preferred times throughout the day. -Chime Mode: Just need a gentle nudge? This mode chimes to let you know it's time—no swiping or completion required. - Smart Tags: Categorize with tags like [Work] or [Family], and filter your list instantly. - Quiet Hours: Automatically pauses snoozes during your bedtime or deep focus hours, and resumes them when you're ready. - Time Zone Support: Traveling abroad? Choose to be alerted at your "Usual Time" or "Local Time". ■ For 'Due' Users Like Due, Looopit excels at recurring routines and persistent nudges. But it goes a step further: you can set multiple days of the week for a single task, or easily add end conditions like "End after 5 times" or "Repeat until [Date]". ■ Pricing The free version allows you to complete up to 15 tasks per month. A monthly subscription removes this limit. That’s it—simple, transparent, and fair. ■Terms of Use: https://looopit.1-b.jp/en/terms.html

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Insistent at none against Looopit's 3. Looopit's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 months) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
