I can’t decide if I would ever use it at all or use it all the time. So I’m genuinely curious where the idea came from?

Well it’s two-fold: First - I wanted something simpler than the default Apple reminders, where i just write the reminder and set the time and fire it, instead of going through the menus Second - I thought that my wife would want to send me a reminder, while i’m doom scrolling on the toilet, and the reminder would appear over the app and would stay there in the island until i acknowledge it.

The second one was the one that pushed me in this direction.
