Location reminders

Tie your to-dos to places, not clock times

Remap tells you when you're close by. Fine with the app closed.

Remap home screen (Korean): the place you are near right now with 3 things to pick up, and your saved places below

You get home from the store and go, "Ah — I forgot." You knew you were out of laundry soap this morning. Inside the store, it never once crossed your mind. Your memory isn't the problem. That thought belonged to a place, not to a time.

Remap ties your to-dos to places instead of clock times. Write "laundry soap at the store" once, and the next time you're near, Remap tells you.

How it works

  • A nudge when you get close — home screen, notification, checklist and map (Korean)
    A nudge when you get closeGrocery store, pharmacy, post office, dry cleaner — any place works. Come near it and a notification arrives with the place name and one line: "You're close by."
  • Write it down, the place remembers — to-do list, notification and map (Korean)
    Write it down, the place remembersWrite the to-do, attach one place, and you're done. After that you're allowed to forget. Remembering is the place's job now.
  • Check it off when you walk in — task detail with the Got it all button (Korean)
    Check it off when you walk inTap the notification and your list is there. Check things off one by one, then hit "Got it all." Turn on Repeat and it comes back the next time you visit.
  • Fine with the app closed — a notification on the lock screen (Korean)
    Fine with the app closedYou don't have to keep Remap running. Quit it completely — when you get near the place, it wakes up on its own and tells you.

Nothing to set up

Your iPhone can do something like this on its own. It just takes so many taps that most people try it once and never again. Remap has no toggles to flip and no screen for drawing zones on a map. Write it down, and the app handles the rest.

Why location has to be "Always"

To notice that you've arrived while you're out, the app has to be able to check location even when it isn't open. That is what "Always" is for. Location is used only to send you a notification, and no record of where you have been is kept.
