24 alternatives to Remindme – A tool to set short-term reminders from the terminal
Hello there! The idea behind this CLI tool is to use it for short-term reminders, e.g. to remind you (via OS-specific notifications) to do something in 2 hours or in 10 minutes. The app is supposed to be cross-platform compatible. Still, I have limited access to platforms, so it was tested only on MacOS, Ubuntu (via VirtualBox), Fedora (via VirtualBox) and Windows 10 Home. I'd appreciate any feedback on how it works on these and other OS-es. Also, I have never tested it outside my time zone (GMT+2), so it would be nice to hear from folks from other parts of the world. Any feedback, comments,…

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…

I've been working on Recall for a while now, it had some initial traction in the beginning which has since died down now. I am facing the inevitable question of whether to continue with the project. I just put out a new release and it would be helpful to get advice from the community on what they think of the idea and my implementation.

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.
