A better use for your phone.
Then back to your day.
Change what your phone is for
It brings you back.
It doesn’t manage you.
It doesn’t go stale.
Add a few phrases to one Nudge. Oftly rotates them so you don’t see the same one every time.
A rhythm that fits.
Choose how often it appears—from every 15 minutes to once a week. Set the days and hours that work for you.
How it works
Set it once.
Let it return.
Give each Nudge a message and tell it when to appear.
- 1
Write a Nudge
Type a phrase you want to see again, like “Wherever you go, there you are.” Add more if you want.
- 2
Choose when it appears
Set when it can appear and when it should stay quiet.
- 3
Glance and keep going
Read the notification. Nothing to tap, log, or complete.
A few examples
Worth remembering.
A line from your practice. A note to your future self. Or the thing you keep meaning to remember. If you’d write it on a sticky note, it belongs in a Nudge.

Home Screen widgets
Between Nudges,
it stays in view.

Straight answers
What to expect.
Is Oftly a habit tracker?
No. Oftly brings a thought back to mind. It has no streaks, checklists, or progress charts.
How is this different from a repeating reminder?
A repeating reminder shows the same words at the same time and asks you to check them off. Before long, you stop seeing it. Oftly rotates your phrases and stays quiet when you want it to. Nothing to complete.
What happens if I ignore one?
Nothing changes. There’s no streak to break or score to fix.
How often can a Nudge appear?
Choose how often it appears—from every 15 minutes to once a week. Set the days and hours that work for you.
Does Oftly have a feed of affirmations or prompts?
No feed. Each Nudge holds the phrases you choose.
Where are my Nudges stored?
On your iPhone. Oftly doesn’t store your Nudges on a server.
