Hi Product Hunters. Let me introduce – DeskMinder². The biggest and completely free update. This is my second product launch. The app has come a long way and has been completely reimagined. Now it’s not just a reminder, it’s also a tool for task focus.
Key changes:
A completely reimagined app, with every pixel on the screen refined
Added modes to switch between tasks and reminders
Redesigned fullscreen notifications
Improved and refined design – now truly glass-like and flexible
Introduced an experimental Audio-Haptic effect
Added the ability to animate the Menubar icon
New screen showing the full history of all tasks and reminders
Quick reminder rescheduling now available
Improved integration with Apple Reminders
Custom shortcuts added, along with the option to quickly cancel a timer
Performance and all animations significantly optimized
App size reduced by more than 60x
Huge congrats on the launch of DeskMinder²! 🚀
I’ve already tried it and love how simple and effective it is. It really helps me stay focused throughout the day. Wishing you continued success and lots of upvotes today!

@bohdan_hlamazda Thank you for such a review and support. I’m glad you liked the app and found it valuable for yourself.
findable.
Very cool. Will try. Since my ADHD made it impossible to finish watching the video I have a question:
Is the idea to replace my todo list?

@peterbuch Yes, absolutely. You can create both reminders and tasks. If you enable sync with Apple Reminders, the tasks will stay there as a to-do list, and they will also be available within the app on a separate History screen. I plan to continue developing the to-do functionality and eventually create a full-featured task list.
findable.
kudos @ launch, love the logo and shortcuts support, heavy shortcuts user

@__tosh Yes, I understand you 🙌 That’s why the product is designed to be fully usable without a mouse. You can trigger it with a shortcut and then switch between entering the time and the reminder/task text.

This is the moment when I’m thinking about switching to Mac! Congrats!

@kate_ramakaieva Switching to Mac is the right move 🐱 - the coolest apps are usually found only on Mac, including, of course, DeskMinder :)
Nice launch! Love how simple DeskMinder² is—sometimes that’s all you need. Do you plan to keep it minimal, or add more ways to customize reminders later? Either way, one-click reminders sound perfect for my chaotic workflow.
