About this app

[nag requires a subscription after a FREE 3-day trial: around USD 11/year, 3/month, or 42 lifetime. This keeps nag running bug-free for years - no ads, no data selling - just a reliable tool that works]

Hi there, here are Nadine & Robin, the two founders of nag reminder - the Essential, Persistent and Most Powerful Productivity App on Android 👋

🏁 The best way to know what nag is all about, is to tell you directly why we developed the app and what problem we tried to solve. If you are interested in the features, just skip this section and scroll down.

PROBLEM:
We forgot things once in a while. Often small things like buying or taking care of something, paying a bill, redeeming a coupon etc. Sometimes also recurring things like disposing of compost, taking pills, doing laundry etc.

What to do then? Just download an app that reminds you, right? Well, we have tested all android todo, productivity and reminder apps ourselves (we have about +100 productivity apps on our phones) and were not satisfied.

There were generalyl two problems:

1️⃣ Firstly, that these apps only remind you once and then give up. The apps are not intrusive enough. Sometimes a reminder just comes at an inappropriate time and you forget to do this reminder at all. The app should remind me then again until I have actually done it. One or two apps had this capability, but they failed in endurance testing over several weeks so you couldn't rely on the app. So it should be persistently nagging me.

2️⃣ Second, the apps are eiter way too complicated / have multiple usecases or were too simple and very limited in their power. We need an app that is focused on a few functions but does them better than anyone else.

SOLUTION
We have been working with several people since 2019 on a prototype that takes into account the above aspects and gives you a productivity tool at hand so you can be more productive than ever. With nag you will never forget anything!

To achieve the benefits described above, nag has the following features:

🔔 Persistent & Effective Reminders
Since nag uses novel and patented notification system to remind you of things over and over again until you do them, it's impossible to forget anything. In short, if it's in nag, you'll never forget it!

🔁 Most Powerful Reminders
From the simple daily & weekly reminders to the complex every-3rd-Monday-of-the-second-month kind of reminders.

⚡ Set & Postpone Reminders in Record Time
Patented workflow & time picker with 12 preset and fully customizable times.

🧰 Essential design
This app has more than 15 years of design experience with UI/UX and focuses on the essentials so that the app is easy to use & yet can offer the most powerful reminders on the market.

🏝️ Works fully offline
You don't need internet to receive reminders. With other apps, notifications start coming irregularly in offline mode, unlike with us. Even if you don't have internet for 3 weeks, reminders will come as scheduled.

🛡️ Secure & Synced
Your data is securly stored end-to-end with SHA-256 encryption at all times so we can't access your reminders. We are fully GDPR compliant.

A few words from our users:

"I really like that the app pings reminders several times so if I miss the first, it keeps going. Instead of silently sitting in the notification tray" by Snackrat

"I love it! its on my home screen next to my calendar (...) love that the reminders are simultaneously REALLY easy to make short ones, AND able to make detailed ones." by Snackrat

"I absolutely love this app!" by Beast1985

Ratings and reviews

As someone who moved over from iOS, I've been looking for a replacement for the excellent Due app. Nag Reminder is the closest I've found to date. There are a couple of minor bugs that prevent me from rating this five stars. The first is that I can not dismiss the sample reminder meant to show how to postpone. The second is that when choosing a specific day of the month, it will read 31th instead of 31st as it should. It does the same thing with 3rd. It reads 3th. Other than that, it's good.

This app is a good start towards copying Due, an iOS app. Sadly, at the moment, it is buggy. The notification sound changes randomly. Also, the reminders don't fire when set, but a minute later. This is also random, as some go off when set, some don't. With both bugs I've tried clearing and resetting, but the issue persists. I contacted the Robin, whose reply was the standard (as evidenced here) "I've forwarded this to the developer..." For the price, NOT worth it.

I LOVE NAG!!!! As a nuerodivergant, it is impossible for work on priority items or keep appointments without help. Nag is perfect for me. It allows me to schedule my important tasks and it non-stops reminding me about each one! This ap is a godsend. I did have a minor issue with it recognizing my yearly subscription when I upgraded my phone. I eventually was able to contact the developer and it was fixed quick.

What’s new

rollback to the last stable version. sorry for the unstable version :( we are working on it!
