Marco Arment Launches Unforgetful on 3 Apple Platforms to Fix Reminders Gaps

Summary
Unforgetful debuted for iPhone, iPad and Mac as a new task app from Overcast developer Marco Arment, aimed at users whose reminders get missed or dismissed.
Arment built it around Apple Reminders’ existing data after identifying three core flaws: tasks without alerts can vanish, dismissed notifications do not return, and snooze choices are too limited.
Persistent alerts are the app’s centerpiece, repeatedly notifying users until a task is completed or deleted, with flexible snoozing, spaced-out due reminders and delayed location alerts.
The app strips out folders, tags and overdue labels to keep tasks from getting buried, while still supporting Siri-created reminders plus widgets, Lock Screen controls and Control Center controls.
Unforgetful is available now on the App Store with a 1-month free trial, then a subscription that covers all three platforms.
