I built this app primarily for my wife, who has tried many mainstream todo-list apps (OmniFocus, Things, and Todoist come to mind) over the years with little success. She isn't particularly interested in setting up a productivity system and the administrivia that goes with it. Even having to remember to look at an app once a day was far from ideal for her. This app is an attempt at a solution for anyone that fits this description, with a focus on alerting over organization. Here's how it works: you create a nudge that's set to trigger at a given date and time, and the app phones you, texts…

Mom Clock▲742Hi HN, I’ve tried dozens of reminder and habit apps over the years. They’re all polite. Gentle. Easy to ignore. So I built something intentionally different.

nudge2.0▲107Hey HN! Nudge captures your screen every minute and uses GPT-4o to detect when you're distracted. Describe what you want to work on ("Review PRs on GitHub for 20min") and Nudge will alert when it sees you doing something else. I built Nudge because I get easily distracted at work. I've been using it for a few weeks and I'd say my procrastination is down 20-30%. (That's partly because Nudge forces me to break my day into small, concrete activities.) The AI detection can work perfectly but it depends on how clearly you describe your goal. For example, "I want to reply to my boss" is bad, but…

I struggle with time blindness and kept missing client Zoom calls. MacOS notification banners appear for 5 seconds and vanish...my brain can't hold onto them. I spent 2 months building a solution. What it is: Chime shows full-screen alerts that physically interrupt whatever you're doing. It's impossible to miss. Technical details: - Built entirely in Swift/SwiftUI using Cursor. - Uses EventKit for Calendar + Reminders integration - Todoist REST API v2 for task sync - All data stays local—no cloud sync How it works: - Syncs from Calendar, Apple Reminders, and Todoist every 1-30 min (This…
