Reminders that lock your apps until it's done

RemindLock is an iPhone reminder app for people who ignore reminders, built for ADHD: when a reminder is due, the apps you picked stay locked until you type “I did …” or reschedule it.

RemindLock's home screen: Reminders for Tuesday, November 3, with Fold laundry (10 min) and Put away dishes.

How it works

How it works in 3 steps

  1. Set a reminder and pick the apps to lock.

    A title and a time is all it needs. Add a first tiny step, why it matters, or how long it takes.
  2. When it's due, those apps lock.

    Open one and you get the reminder instead, not a notification you can swipe away.
  3. Type “I did it” to unlock.

    Or take a photo. Then your apps are back.

Why it works

Built for real days, not perfect ones

Start small
The block screen shows a first tiny step and how long it takes, like “Do dishes · 5 min”. Start a timer right from it.
Room for real life
Can't do it now? Move it with a reason, or drop it. There's a daily emergency unlock, and no streaks or guilt.
Lock in for a while
Start a focus lock for 1 minute to 12 hours, and extend it if you need more. A countdown on your Lock Screen shows what's left, and your apps unlock on their own.
Private
No account. Your reminders, reasons and photos stay on your iPhone. Privacy policy

Questions

Can I cheat?
Yes, on purpose: you can always drop a reminder or use the daily emergency unlock. It's built to add a little friction, not to be a prison.
What if I can't do it right now?
Move it to a new time with a short reason, up to twice per reminder, or drop it.
Does it need Screen Time?
Yes, Apple's Screen Time permission for individuals. RemindLock never sees which apps you pick.
Can it lock Phone or Messages?
No. Phone, Messages and the apps you always allow never lock.
