Write it the way you'd say it
A reminder is a sentence before it's a form. Type "dentist thursday at 10" and Nodino pulls the date out for you: the title stays "dentist", the date goes where it belongs, and three steps become one.
- "dentist thursday at 10"Weekdays, times, "tomorrow", "the 29th of September" — written the way you'd actually write them, not in a format you have to learn.
- It shows you what it understood.Before anything is filed, the reading appears under the field — and one tap waves it away if it got you wrong. Nothing happens behind your back.
- Only a day? Then only a day."Pay the tax bill on the 29th" has no hour, so Nodino doesn't invent one: it becomes an all-day reminder and stops asking.
Runs on the device with Apple's own text analysis — no account, no network, nothing sent anywhere. Included in the free app. Natural Language Input →

Remind me where, not just when
Some things aren't tied to a time — they're tied to a place. Buying milk makes no sense at 6 p.m.; it makes sense when you're at the shop. Nodino nudges you the moment you arrive somewhere, or the moment you leave.
- "Buy milk when I get to the store."Pick a place on the map, and the reminder waits there until you show up.
- "Take the keys when I leave home."Leaving works too — the alert lands while you're still at the door, not once you're on the road.
- Once, or every single time.A one-off errand, or a standing rule that fires on every visit. You set how close is close enough.
Place reminders need location permission — choose "Always" so they work with the app closed. Your places never leave your device and your own iCloud. Location-Based Reminders →

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Nodino really free?
Yes, and there's no trial and no account. The free app keeps up to 3 active reminders at a time — reminders you've completed don't count towards it, so you can use Nodino for years without paying. Smart on-device suggestions, iCloud sync, reliable alerts and all 16 categories are included at no cost. Nodino Pro lifts the 3-reminder limit and adds place reminders, up to 3 alerts per reminder, Home Screen widgets, Siri Shortcuts, custom notification sounds and all 9 themes. It's a monthly or annual subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase — your choice.
Where are my reminders saved?
Your reminders are saved locally on your device using Apple's modern SwiftData framework. If you enable iCloud, they are synchronized to your personal iCloud account. We never host, see, or have any access to your data.
How do the smart suggestions work?
Nodino uses on-device natural language analysis. As you type, the app automatically suggests times, dates, or details. This processing is performed entirely on your iPhone/iPad, meaning your data never leaves your device and no internet is required.
How is Nodino Pro priced?
Your choice. Nodino Pro is available as an affordable monthly or annual subscription, or as a one-time lifetime purchase that's yours forever. Every option supports Apple's Family Sharing, so your family members can use it on their devices too.
How do place reminders work — and do they drain my battery?
You pick a place on the map and how close you need to get, then choose whether the reminder fires when you arrive or when you leave. iOS does the watching itself, using the same low-power location monitoring that powers system features — there's no app running in the background and no GPS left on. Place reminders are part of Nodino Pro, they need location permission (choose "Always" so they work with the app closed), and your places stay on your device and in your own private iCloud.
Does Nodino work on Apple Watch?
Yes, with Nodino Pro. The watch app shows what's next and lets you tick it off from your wrist. Your reminders are already there — they travel through your own iCloud, so there's nothing to pair and nothing to set up. Two honest limits: you can't create a reminder from the watch yet, because an alert scheduled there could be missed, and notifications are still sent by your iPhone. Answering one from the watch — Complete, Snooze — works today, with or without the watch app.
Are there any ads or trackers?
None. We practice strict data minimalism. Nodino does not contain any advertisements, third-party analytics SDKs, trackers, or hidden analytics. Your privacy is 100% protected.
