Due review

Due solves one problem better than any other app here: reminders you cannot ignore. The developer's App Store listing explains Auto Snooze, which keeps re-alerting you about a missed reminder every 1, 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60 minutes until you mark it done or reschedule it. Critical Alerts get through silent mode and Focus, and Prominent Alerts on iOS 26 ring like an alarm. Twelve customizable quick times and natural date parsing make setting and postponing fast, recurring rules handle patterns such as every third Wednesday, and countdown timers cover tasks like laundry. It has an Apple Watch app, widgets, Control Center buttons and Shortcuts. There is no account, the developer says it cannot access your reminders, and sync runs through iCloud or Dropbox. The $7.99 purchase includes every current feature and a year of new ones; an optional $4.99 annual Upgrade Pass covers later additions. Due is not a project manager, so many people pair it with Things or Reminders.
