Don't let me forget.
The simplest reminder app ever made for ADHD. Tap, say it, forget it. It reminds you where you can actually do it. And it knows when you're done.
remember
"Yeah, I'll bring the cans in."
Ninety seconds later, it's gone. Not laziness. Not not caring. An ADHD brain drops the handoff between agreeing and doing.
Six hours later the cans are still at the curb. She isn't mad about the cans. She's mad that she has to be the one who remembers everything, for two people.
Every tool asks the ADHD brain to do the one thing it can't.
Lists need typing
Typing the task is the step that never happens. So the partner ends up doing the data entry.
Alarms go off in the shower
"9:00 am: trash cans" fires when you can't act. By the time you can, it's dismissed and gone.
Chore apps turn her into a dispatcher
Dashboards, streaks, overdue counts. Deleted the first week someone feels managed.
Tap. Say it. Forget it.
Hold the button
One big button. Hold it and say what you just agreed to. Two seconds. No typing, no list, nothing to organize.
Your phone figures out when
"The thing in the trunk" means when you get out of the car. "Trash cans" means when you pull into the driveway. You never set a trigger. It just knows.
It taps you at the right place
A buzz and one card, exactly where you can act. Done? Tap once. That's the whole app.
It reminds you where you can actually do it.
Your phone already knows when you leave home, pull into the driveway, get out of the car, or walk into the store. ADHDwear just uses it.
Getting out of the car
"The thing in the trunk"
Pulling into the driveway
"Bring the trash cans in"
Leaving work
"Pick up her prescription"
Walking into a store
"Dog food. We're out."
Any place you name
"When I'm at Mom's"
All of this is built into every phone already. No extra hardware, no beacons, no setup. Location is used on the phone and never uploaded.
No nagging about finished things.
A reminder that keeps firing after the job is done gets deleted. So closing a task is as easy as opening one.
Tap once
After a buzz, one tap means done. Two taps means "next time."
Say "done"
Hold the button and say it. Same as everything else.
Partner thumbs-up
She can tick it off from her phone. He gets a thank-you, not a follow-up.
It asks once
Nothing confirmed? Next time you're there it asks, "Still need the trunk?" and respects no.
She adds it. He gets it. She sees the check.
A partner can send a reminder by voice or text from their own phone. It goes into the same engine with the same triggers. When it's done, they see a quiet check mark with a time.
No dashboard of missed tasks. No streaks. No red. The partner is usually the buyer, but the wearer decides if it stays. Every competitor built for the buyer and lost the wearer.
Built for a brain that's been yelled at by its own apps for twenty years.
button
No projects, tags, folders or priorities. One question: what should I not forget?
to save
If saving takes longer than deciding to skip it, it's lost. Hold, speak, done.
shame
No red, no streaks, no "you missed 14 tasks." A missed one just waits for the next trigger.
uploads
Voice and location are handled on the phone by free built-in AI. Nothing leaves your pocket.
The expensive parts just became free.
On-device AI
iOS 26 ships a built-in language model and transcriber any app can use. Android has the same. What cost $60 per user per month in the cloud now costs nothing.
US adults diagnosed
About 6% of adults, half of them diagnosed as grown-ups, and the fastest-growing group. One of the most active, product-hungry communities online. (CDC, 2024)
Category validated
Amazon bought Bee. Meta bought Limitless and shut its pendant down. The giants want "ambient AI" for everyone. Nobody built it for the people who need it most.
Free to try. $29 once to keep the peace.
A subscription sold to someone whose whole problem is forgetting things is a churn machine. We charge once, like a good tool.
