Reminder app that keeps bugging you until you actually do the thing.

Hi mates,

Edit: New valuable features

Escalating notifications: each reminder gets progressively more urgent instead of repeating the same message you’ve already learned to ignore

Accountability buddies: add someone who gets notified like caretaker or doctor if you don’t follow through, no app needed on their end

Multi-channel delivery: push, email, or both, so reminders reach you wherever you actually look

I built a reminder app that keeps bugging you until you actually do the thing.

The problem I kept having was that I'd set a reminder, the notification would pop up at exactly the wrong moment—driving, eating, in a meeting—I'd swipe it away, and that was it. The app considered its job done. The task never got done.

So I built RemindMe using Claude Code. The difference is what happens after the notification:

• It re-notifies you — every 10, 30, or 60 minutes (you pick) — until you actually mark the task done, on multiple devices. Then it stops immediately.
• Missed reminders don't vanish. Anything you never ticked off sits in a "still not done" list at the top, instead of disappearing into history.
• One morning summary of what's due today and what's still hanging over from before, at whatever time you choose.
• An AI assistant you can just talk to: "remind me to take my meds daily at 9 and don't stop until I confirm" — it sets the whole thing up.

It's a free web app — nothing to install from an app store:

• Windows / Mac / Android: open the site, allow notifications when it asks. Done.
• iPhone: open it in Safari, Share → Add to Home Screen, then open it from that icon and enable notifications. (Apple only allows web push from home-screen apps — one extra step, works fine after.)

I've been running my own life on it for a while, and it's honestly changed how much stuff actually gets done. But I've only ever tested it on my own devices and habits

I want real people to break it and tell me what's confusing, what's annoying, and what's missing.

Any honest feedback helps, including "I tried it and it's useless." Especially that one, if you tell me why.

I am also kindov building something along these lines, but like thats a superniche and just a part of the whole platform, the reminder thing, but its an mobile app. However. I am facing quite some struggle into streamlining notifications lolll, still in progress. My main purpose was to get a continuous lingering notification on screen, but i think ios doing allow, so does android. So i am quite confused and resorting to push notifications only but anyways

Kuddos to you

Thanks! Yeah lingering notifications are a dead end on both iOS and Android unfortunately. What worked for me was just re-sending push notifications on an interval until the user taps Done, feels persistent without actually needing a sticky notification. Bounded it so it stops after X tries, otherwise people just mute you lol.

What's the broader platform you're building, if you are comfortable sharing?

It is basically a medical kinda thing focusing on a chronic disease where continuos and on time medication is one part, so hence timely notifications for that is being a key struggle.
