Features

Everything a to-do list needs. Nothing it doesn't.

Built around one idea: if you set a reminder, it should reach you, even with the screen off and the phone in Doze.

Alarms that ring

A full-screen alarm over the lock screen, with your choice of sound, plus Done and Snooze.

Nudges until done

Missed it? LOR reminds you again every 30 minutes, or whatever you choose, until it's ticked off.

Lists and priorities

Your own lists with colours and icons, Low/Medium/High priority, notes and subtasks.

Calendar and repeats

See tasks per day. Repeat daily, weekly, monthly or on the days you pick.

Daily rings

Track water, workouts and meals at a glance with the progress rings on Today.

Stats and streaks

How much you finished this week, your current streak, and a history of done tasks.

Home screen widget

Today's tasks on your home screen, with checkboxes that tick off right there.

Backups you own

Export everything to a JSON file you keep, and restore it on a new phone.

Screens

Calm, clear, and quick.

Light and dark themes, big tap targets, swipe right to finish and left to delete, with Undo.

FAQ

Questions

Is it really offline?

Yes. LOR doesn't request the internet permission, so Android won't let it connect to anything. There's no account, no sync and no analytics. Your tasks live in a database on your phone and are excluded from cloud backup.

Why isn't it on the Play Store?

LOR is a free, open-source project distributed directly from GitHub. The source is public, so anyone can check what it does or build it themselves.

My reminders arrive late or not at all. What do I do?

Some phones, especially Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo and Realme, stop background alarms to save battery. Turn off battery optimisation for LOR in your system settings. LOR shows a tip for this, and its Settings page warns you if notifications, exact alarms or full-screen alarms are switched off.

How do I move my tasks to a new phone?

In Settings, choose Export to a file and save the JSON file somewhere you can reach, then use Restore from a file on the new phone. Nothing is uploaded anywhere along the way.

Which Android versions are supported?

Android 8.0 (Oreo) and newer.

Is it free?

Completely. No ads, no in-app purchases, no premium tier. It's licensed under the GNU GPL-3.0.
