Loop Task Reminder
Read full descriptionHide full description
Loop is a reminders app for the recurring stuff — the rhythms of real life that don't belong in a to-do list but still need to happen on a schedule. Oil changes. HVAC filters. Trash day. Filing taxes. Dentist appointments. These aren't tasks you complete and archive. They loop. And most calendar and reminder apps handle them awkwardly, if at all. Loop is built specifically for this. Two task shapes cover everything: Cycles — recurring tasks that reset when you do them. Set your interval ("every 3 months," "every Monday," "15th of each month"), mark it done when you're finished, and Loop resets the clock automatically. Elastic cycles reset from whenever you actually completed the task — so if you're three days late rotating your tires, your next reminder is three months from *now*, not from the original date. Fixed cycles follow the calendar: trash goes out on Wednesdays, rent is due on the 1st. Cliffs — one-time deadlines with real consequences. Vehicle registration. Passport renewal. Filing taxes. Cliffs don't repeat; they escalate. Loop surfaces them earlier as the date approaches and archives them when resolved. The home screen sorts itself. Tasks fall into three zones automatically: Critical (overdue or close to the wire), Active (running on schedule), Dormant (far enough out they don't need your attention yet). You don't manage the list. It manages itself. A library of 35 templates covers the most common recurring tasks across home, auto, health, pets, and finances — so you can add "Change HVAC filter" or "Rotate tires" in a tap rather than configuring it from scratch. Privacy-first. Your data stays on your device. No account required, no server, no analytics. Optional iCloud sync if you want it. Loop is for people who rely on recurring reminders but have always felt like something was slightly off about the experience. Simple setup. Clear design. Calm, persistent reminders that actually remind you. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://memoforagents.com/privacy
