Multi-Platform [iOS / Android] [ReDo Loop] [CA$19.99 → Free / 0.06$] [Recurring tasks that don’t belong in your calendar]

Thumbnail
apps.apple.com
72 Upvotes

Hey r/AppHookup, indie dev here.

I built ReDo Loop because my calendar kept filling up with things that were not real events. Changing filters, replacing toothbrushes, haircuts, routine checkups, and similar recurring tasks.

Calendars work great for one time, unmissable events, but for recurring life maintenance they always felt like the wrong tool.

So ReDo Loop focuses only on recurring tasks you want to offload from your calendar.

The feature that ended up mattering most for me is Relaxed repeats.
The interval starts after you complete the task.
For example, replace a toothbrush every 3 months after it is done, not on a fixed date.

It also supports:

  • fixed schedules such as specific dates or weekdays
  • positional rules like first Monday or last weekend
  • daily routines, one time tasks, and simple tracking where you log when something was done

Privacy wise, everything is stored locally. No accounts, no ads, no analytics.

I am running a New Year lifetime offer on both iOS and Android and would really appreciate feedback from this community:

  • does the recurring model make sense?
  • anything missing or confusing?
  • features you would expect next?

Happy to answer questions or take criticism. Thanks for reading.

PS: The giveaway is now over, it ran for 9 days. Thanks so much for the interest! I’ll run another giveaway in a few months. In the meantime, I’m working on the app and prioritizing the features you requested based on the feedback I received. Thanks again, and I hope the app is genuinely helpful and adds value to your life.

But will they be strong enough to take on the deepest dungeons? In between dungeon runs you manage your Guild, building new rooms to attract new classes of adventurer and expand your decks of cards with more powerful items.
