RemindMe - The reminder app that doesn't give up after one ping

by
Most reminder apps fire once. You swipe it away and forget anyway. RemindMe keeps reminding you until you mark the task done, and each notification is worded differently so your brain can't tune it out. Add an accountability buddy, and they're told if you skip it. Free, no app store install, works on iPhone and Android.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Irfan, a self-taught developer from Pakistan. I build WordPress sites for clients — this is the first product I've made for myself. I built RemindMe because I kept missing things I'd actually set reminders for. The notification would fire, I'd swipe it away mid-task, and twenty minutes later it may as well have never existed. The app did its job. I didn't do mine. And it didn't care. So I made one that cares. Three things make it different: 1. It keeps reminding you until you mark the task done, then stops. Bounded, not infinite. 2. Each nudge is worded differently and gets more direct. Repeating the same notification five times just teaches your brain to ignore it; this way it can't. 3. You can add an accountability buddy. When your reminder fires, they get a short note saying you committed to it. If you don't finish it by your deadline, they get told. Nothing else. They don't need an account or an app. It runs as a PWA, so there's no app store and no install. Add it to your home screen, and you get real lock screen notifications. Free, no ads, and I'm not selling anyone's data; it's hosted on a server I pay for myself. I'd genuinely rather hear what's broken than what's good. If you try it and something doesn't work, or the whole idea seems wrong, please tell me here. I'll be around all day. One thing I'm curious about: does the accountability buddy idea appeal to you, or does it feel like too much pressure? I go back and forth on it.
