    Get a nudge

    When someone is due, one gentle reminder arrives. Tap it to open the chat.

Inside the app

Everything lives in one calm list.

Weekly for your best friend. Every few months for an old roommate.

Give each person a rhythm that fits. Nudge works out when they are next due and sorts your list by who has waited longest.

Privacy

Your friendships are nobody else's business.

Stays on your phone

Your people, notes and check-ins live on your device. Nudge has no server to send them to.

No account

Open the app and add your first person. No sign-up, no email, no password.

Backups you own

Turn on backup and it goes to your own iCloud or Google Drive, where only you can reach it.

Free, tips welcome

Every feature is free, with no ads. If Nudge helps, you can leave a tip from inside the app.

FAQ

Before you ask.

Something else on your mind? Write to us.

Is Nudge free?

Yes. Every feature is free and there are no ads. If you like it, you can leave a one-off tip in the app.

Does Nudge read my messages?

No. When you tap WhatsApp or Messages, Nudge opens that app and steps aside. It never sees what you send.

Why does it ask for my contacts?

So you can pick people from your contacts instead of typing them in. Nudge only keeps the people you pick, and you can add people by hand instead.

How many reminders will I get?

One per person when they are due, at the time you choose. If several people are due on the same day, they arrive together in one notification.

What if I am busy when a nudge comes in?

Snooze it for a day, a few days or a week. The person stays on your list until you check in.

What happens when I get a new phone?

Turn on backup in settings. On the new phone, install Nudge and restore from your iCloud or Google Drive.
