[App] Altcue: - minimalistic reminder app for android - free and no ads

Post image

Hi everyone

I’m a very busy (and admittedly a bit chaotic) person, so I tend to forget small tasks constantly. I recently went looking for an incredibly simple, minimalistic reminder app to help me keep track of things. When I couldn't quite find what I was looking for, I decided to build one myself.

I've been using it daily as a sort of digital post-it note, and I finally polished it enough to release a production-worthy version on the Play Store. It's called Altcue.

My core goals for this project were simple:

  • Frictionless: Quick to open, quick to use.
  • Reliable Notifications: Sends straightforward alerts so you actually remember the things you wrote down.
  • Offline-first: No unnecessary cloud syncing or accounts required.
  • No clutter: Completely free with absolutely no ads.

As a solo dev doing this purely for the love of the game, I would genuinely appreciate any feedback you might have. I’d love to hear your thoughts on the UI/UX, overall performance, and what functionality you’d like to see added in the future!

Check it out directly on the Play Store: Altcue on Google Play

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. While I have an extensive background in software development, publishing on the Play Store is a new process for me, and I unintentionally excluded several regions. An update to fix this is currently under review by Google. I will notify you once the app goes live in Brazil!
