WakeMinder – Mac reminders that appear when you open your laptop

Comments (1)

omar_szn · 6h ago

I built WakeMinder because I often remember things after stepping away from my Mac — but forget them again by the time I return.

WakeMinder solves that by showing reminders the moment you wake your Mac. You can add reminders from your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch (with voice dictation), and they instantly appear on your Mac the next time you open it.

It syncs via iCloud, works offline, and doesn’t rely on notifications or background apps. Just wake your Mac — and your reminder is there, waiting.
