Howls
Productivity
$1.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
HowLS is an app to track infrequent, recurring tasks. The sorts of tasks unworthy of an alarm, but which stack up and will probably irritate you if you leave them too long.
The sort of tasks which you should do semi-regularly, but which you don't necessarily have to do today. For example:
- defrosting the freezer
- calling your Great Aunt Flo
- organizing photos
HowLS is not an app for unique to-do items (ones you'll never do again), nor particularly for daily tasks (which you tend to remember anyway).
How long since you changed your toothbrush? With HowLS, you can check that.
You don't need a detailed log of all the times you changed your toothbrush. Just the last time will do.
And a gentle in-app reminder that maybe those bristles are wearing a bit thin.
How long since you bought flowers for a loved one (even if that's yourself)? With HowLS, you can make sure it wasn't back in the last millennium.
