Nudge Monster
iPhone reminders that stay in sight while you scroll
Every other reminder app tells you once. Nudge Monster doesn't stop. Each reminder becomes a live countdown on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island that starts by itself and stays until you mark the task done. It can't be swiped away by accident. Monster mode adds an alarm that rings through silent mode and Focus. It also pulls birthdays from Contacts and warns you the night before. No account, no tracking, no ads: task names never leave your phone.
Hi Product Hunt, I'm Avinash, the solo developer behind Nudge Monster.
This year I missed my sister's birthday. The day before, I had been on the phone with her talking about that very birthday. I knew. I still forgot. That's when it hit me that knowing isn't remembering, and a notification that shows up once and disappears is built to be ignored.
So I built a reminder app that refuses to be ignored. When something is due, a live countdown starts by itself on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, and it stays there. You can't swipe it away by accident. The only way out is to mark the task done. For the things that really matter, Monster mode rings an alarm straight through silent mode and Focus.
The hardest part was keeping the countdown alive. iOS retires Live Activities after a while, so I built a small push service that brings them back. It only stores an anonymous ID and two timestamps. Your task names never leave your phone, and there is no account, no tracking and no ads.
It also pulls birthdays from your Contacts, warns you the night before, and keeps a Hall of Shame for the things you ignored.
The free tier has unlimited reminders and birthdays. Pro adds unlimited Monster mode, more countdowns and a Home Screen widget.
I'd love to know: what is the one reminder you keep ignoring? And tell me if the monster is too annoying, or not annoying enough.
