Maker here! Thanks for the hunt @chrismessina!
Me and @julie_liang wanted to solve a problem we both had. Plum was born from that.
One feature not mentioned is your data is private because we don’t have a backend. Everything stays on your phone. There’s no signup/login because we are not tracking our users.
Thanks for all the positive vibes PH community! It really means a lot for a small developer. Great community you have here @rrhoover!

This is great! I had the exact same idea in my backlog for quite a while now, so quite excited to see I'm not the only one! Good work @chrismessina
I love the simplicity of the design, though I think the biggest challenge with reminder apps is how to avoid being another notification that is snoozed/dismissed/deferred. I guess since these are self selecting folks should act on them at the scheduled time.
Been waiting for a simple solution to this problem for a while now! Agree with @abadesi though, the challenge is for this to make keeping up with friends and contacts easier and not another pressure!

@rrhoover one more personal CRM for you to check out 👀
@amrith many personal CRMs focus on keeping in touch with friends/contacts. That's not what I'm looking and take an organic approach to my relationships (i.e. if I care about them, we'll stay in touch with out an external nudge).
@nathan_ganser I can see this being useful for some people but not something that's particularly high priority for me. I value fewer, stronger personal relationships than a lot of loose connections.

@rrhoover Curious what kind of task/use case you've been trying to achieve with personal CRM tools? If it's not for managing loose connections, wouldn't other types of tools be more ideal, like Notion, Airtable, etc.
@nathan_ganser@rrhoover +1 to what everyone else said. I don't fully understand this fascination with a personal CRM from so many people in technology. Is this product not accomplishing the objective of a lightweight "personal CRM"? What else would a product like that do if not remind you to keep in touch with people...?
@nathan_ganser@rrhoover@iansmith Please do tell which other personal CRMs you know of but ONLY if they let you keep your data. I'm tired of giving my stuff to others to sell.

Please bring it on to Android. I need this. Also add birthday or occasional reminders.
