Unforgetful is a new reminders app for people who can't stop hitting snooze
Key Points:
- Marco Arment, known for apps like Overcast and Instapaper, has launched Unforgetful, an alternative reminders app for iOS and Mac designed specifically for procrastinators who find Apple's Reminders app ineffective.
- Unforgetful integrates with the existing Apple Reminders database but addresses common issues such as missed notifications, accidental dismissal of reminders, and ineffective snooze functions by ensuring notifications repeat until tasks are completed.
- The app features a revamped snooze system with scaling intervals and limits simultaneous tasks to prevent user overwhelm, while maintaining a simple interface without advanced organizational tools.
- Users can continue using Siri to add reminders as usual, with Unforgetful replacing Apple Reminders notifications, eliminating the need to switch databases or export tasks if they decide to stop using the app.
- Additional features include an in-app microphone for voice reminders and a variety of widgets for the Lock Screen and Control Center, enhancing accessibility and ease of use.
