Dewing: Self-Care Reminders

Yeongwoo Seo

About this app

"When did I last do that?"

Dewing remembers so you don't have to. Set how often each routine repeats — a haircut every 3 weeks, exfoliating weekly, a subscription every month — and Dewing works out the next date from the last time you actually did it. No daily nagging. Just the right reminder at the right time.

■ Routines that run themselves
- One tap to mark it done — the next date is set for you
- Every day, every few days, on set weekdays or days of the month, just once, or on dates you pick
- Missed one? It moves to the next turn, and you can bring yesterday's back to today
- Up next — finish brushing, and Dewing points you to sunscreen
- A reminder on the evening something is due
- A heads-up a few days early for anything you need to book
- Cancel a subscription before you're billed — tap Cancelled on its early reminder, and the date stays in your archive

■ Events and to-dos, one calendar
- Timed or all-day events with alerts, plus simple to-dos
- Link a salon visit to your haircut routine and check it off right from the event
- See your phone calendar (Google, Apple and more) alongside — events are read only on this phone
- Countdowns for big days, with a prep list that tops your routine tab as the day nears

■ Your drawer and empties
- Note when you opened each product and how long it's good for — get a heads-up 7 days before it expires
- Snap the expiry mark on the bottle to fill it in (the photo isn't saved)
- Used it up? It goes on your empties shelf — see how many you finished this month

■ Pick one to start
- My care — skin, hair, body and everyday routines
- Pet care — feeding, grooming, vaccines (dog or cat)

■ Your products and how-tos, in one place
- Share to Dewing — save a product or a how-to link from any app straight into a routine
- Up to 10 items and links per routine, each one tap away

■ Better with a buddy
- Link up with one code — you each see only today's routines
- Overdue? Send a paw-print nudge (up to 5 a day)
- Suggest a routine your buddy keeps skipping, picked from presets
- Treatments and private routines stay hidden; you choose what's shared

■ Features
- Mirror — light up the screen for beauty devices, shaving or makeup, zoom in on your nose, lips, brows or hair, and flip to "As others see me" (face detection runs only on your device). Open it straight from a home or lock screen widget
- Lock screen card — on evenings with routines left, your character shows them on the lock screen and Dynamic Island
- Home screen widget — check off routines without opening the app, tap again to undo, with your D-day countdown
- Rhythm view — see your streak as a trail of footprints
- Before & after photos on your log (photos stay on your device)
- Pause a routine while you travel or recover
- Mark a routine private — its name is masked on screen, in widgets and in notifications
- Petting sounds — record your pet and hear it when you pet your character (recordings stay on your device)
- Dark mode

■ A little Korean heritage
Pick Dewy the cat, Dewri the dog, Dewni the rabbit, Dewrang the tiger, Dewkang the shark, Dewchi the haechi, Dewba the panda or Dewmi the fox. Finish your routines and collect "yeopjeon," old Korean coins, from daily missions — spend them on traditional accessories like a gat hat or a norigae charm, a moon jar to keep by your side, a magpie or lucky toad to sit with, and character colors.

■ No pressure
- Start right away, no sign-up needed
- One reminder in the evening, only when something's due — turn it off anytime

Not the what, but the always.
Dewing remembers the cycle for you.
