What it does
Notifications vanish the moment you swipe them — then you forget anyway. Mada is different: your reminder lives on your lock screen as a Live Activity and stays there until you tap Done. Built for the small recurring things that matter — medication, plants, family calls. One tap to complete, right from the lock screen. No accounts, no ads, no analytics SDKs; the core app stays on your device. iPhone, iOS 17+. Not a to-do app — just a forget-proof layer for what matters.
Mada is a persistent iPhone lock-screen reminder that stays visible until you tap Done. Built for medication, vitamins, plants, and small recurring habits you keep forgetting. iOS 17+ Live Activity. No accounts, no ads.
Mada stays on your lock screen until you tap Done. So you never have to wonder. Live Activity keeps your reminder visible until you actually tap Done — no more swipe-and-forget. Done lives on the lock screen, not three taps into the app. Dynamic Island works too. 10 minutes, 30 minutes, tonight, tomorrow, or pick your own time. One tap fromfrom mada.ddugddag.net

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
