Anyway this is a pretty useful idea. What made you start off creating it?
The TLDR:
Where it started: me standing in front of a long aisle of dog food bags at Costco, racking my memory for which kind I was supposed to buy next for my finicky golden retriever, Kilo.
How it ended: me building Rotation List, so nobody will ever have to forget again.
I explained more in:

With an AI assist, there was no reason to stop adding improvements as I thought of them, so I didn't.
That is the mantra of today, yes. In a similar vein, I made my initially personal C course into something I could make public-facing, with some refinements, I also kept adding features but them my "sanity"(?) kicked in and i squashed a couple to be only in dev mode. Perhaps they will return to the public version after a round of refinement.
I first programmed in C on a PDP 11 many years ago. I'm curious what you mean by "public vs. dev mode"?
Right now the App Store page also doesn't say it in the first paragraph
And it really does do a lot. That's not hype. It's full-featured as I could make it without turning into something it's not, like a calendar or "productivity system."
At the heart of it is the mechanic of a rotation list, not forgetting what's next, but that's just the beginning.
None of my other apps have ever had a hard paywall, and success was not a result. So I tried something different this time.
In the end, I just couldn't go with a hard paywall; it's against my nature. So, on the paywall at the bottom, there's a "not now" button that lets you use all the features of the app without paying for 7 days.
