Not another Reminders alternative—an insistence layer

Most “Apple Reminders alternatives” ask you to migrate lists. Naggy takes a different path: keep Apple Reminders as the system of record, and add stubborn follow-through for the tasks that matter.

Why people switch—and why they shouldn’t have to

Folks leave Reminders looking for recurring nagging, ADHD-friendly insistence, or louder completion loops. Migration costs habits and widgets. Naggy removes that tax.

Where Naggy differs from list apps

Todoist, Things, and others are great PM tools. Naggy’s job is narrower: keep selected Reminders alive in notification space until Done.

Privacy-first

Local processing via EventKit. No account required for the core nag loop.

Try persistent reminders on iPhone

Naggy sits on Apple Reminders and keeps alerting until you mark Done.

FAQ

Do I need to import my lists?

No. Point Naggy at reminders you already have.

Can it replace Reminders completely?

It isn’t trying to. If you want a full GTD suite, use one—and still attach Naggy for critical follow-through.
