Description

Ever wished you could jot down a task and set up a reminder alert really, really fast? Yeah, we do too.

The beauty of Due lies in its simplicity. There's no account to create, no start or end date to set, no need to prioritize, tag nor categorize.

★ WHAT'S NEW IN 1.8–1.8.1 ★

✓ iCloud sync

Keep your data in sync across your iPhone and iPad through iCloud.

✓ Improved Dropbox sync

Sync database on Dropbox can now be moved to another location of your choice within your Dropbox folder.

✓ Assignable alert tones

Assign a distinctive alert sound for each reminder. Shows the last two most recently used alert sound for quick access to frequently used alert sounds.

✓ Retina-display graphics for the new iPad

✓ Two brand new short alert sounds

✓ Duplicate reminders
Create reminders quickly based on the time and recurrence of existing reminders. Now easier to create a series of reminders at different hours of day (eg. 3 doses of medicine daily).

✓ Updated date and time parsing behavior
Tap on title bar to parse date. Due no longer sets the due date and time automatically when typing in the title, and no longer prompts to remove/keep parsed date in title on saving/dismissing of keyboard.

✓ Easier to modify recurring reminders now
Due now asks if changes should be applied to just the next occurrence, or to all future events when editing recurring reminders.

Customer Reviews

One downside (3 stars)
While using local notifications is a plus for battery life, lack of push means that you must open the app for it to sync via iCloud. So if I set a reminder on my iPad, then head out with only my iPhone, I will not be reminded unless I open the app on my phone beforehand.

This is a huge issue and the one reason why I will use the default Apple Reminders app until this feature is added.

Really great app - I would love to dep

Perfect. Excellent. Brilliant. Simple. (5 stars)
I use other organizing tool and to do list apps, but this application hits the sweet spot between simplicity and power. Within a day it has already become an essential part of my routine. If there were six stars, I would award them.

great app (5 stars)
can't think of many improvements!
