"Live Minder" is a productivity tool that brings your Apple Reminders and To-Do lists to the forefront—on your Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, notifications, and Always-On Display. It syncs in real time with Apple Reminders and iCloud, so tasks stay up-to-date across all your iOS/iPadOS devices. It also integrates with ChatGPT for AI-assisted list creation and automation, without replacing the native Reminders app.
Key capabilities include managing reminders directly from the lock screen or Dynamic Island, creating new reminders, and using AI to auto-generate lists (e.g., ingredients, shopping, to-dos) for free. You can delete reminders, customize live notifications with colors and themes, and automate workflows via Siri Shortcuts. Live Minder emphasizes privacy, with no data sent to servers for reminders (local to the device; analytics data may be collected).
Typical workflows:
- View and complete reminders directly from the lock screen or Dynamic Island.
- Create and organize new reminders within Live Minder, while keeping the core Reminders app in sync.
