DeskMinder is a simple, effective macOS app for quick desktop reminders. Perfect for short tasks or ADHD users who need unmissable, full-screen notifications. Set up to 99-minute timers via drag to stay on track.
I’m thrilled to introduce DeskMinder — a simple yet powerful macOS app for short reminders, perfect for anyone who either loses focus quickly or gets so immersed in work that they miss typical notifications.
🔑 Key Features:
Instant reminder creation: set a timer (up to 99 minutes) simply by dragging.
Full-screen notifications: smoothly appear but are impossible to ignore. No more missed.
Flexible configuration: choose widget position and appearance or remove it entirely and invoke via hotkey.
Ideal for short tasks: anything from “turn off the stove” to “call the client back in half an hour.”
The app will be priced at $5.99, but for the Product Hunt community, we’re offering it free for two days. Give it a try, share your thoughts, and help us make DeskMinder even better.
Thank you so much for your time! We appreciate your feedback and ideas. 🙏
This is a must-have for deep work sessions! I often lose track of time when focused—this will definitely help with time management. Any plans for an iOS version?
@dmitriychuta DeskMinder looks like the perfect solution for those “just a quick reminder” moments that traditional to-do apps overcomplicate. The full-screen notifications make sure nothing slips through the cracks—great for deep workers! do you plan to add integrations with other macOS apps or calendars for more seamless workflows?
Thanks again everyone for the support! It was a great launch, so for that reason we’re offering a discounted price for the next week for those who haven’t had a chance to try it before we raise it.
DeskMinder looks super useful for those of us who tend to either forget small tasks or get lost in deep work! The full-screen reminders are a smart way to ensure nothing slips through the cracks. Excited to give it a try—thanks for making it free for the PH community! 🚀
Just downloaded DeskMinder, and at first glance, it’s a real game-changer for staying organized! The app is super intuitive, super fast, and looks like it will be an essential tool for my workflow. Hopefully, it will be just as useful for my colleagues too! Huge thanks to the developers for this awesome tool! 🔥 Thanks!
Congrats with the launch Dmytro! 👏
Looks quite interesting, and potentially useful - trying it out. 🧐
One thing I noticed - how can it be 183 MB in size for such a simple and small app? 🤯
This is a great idea. As a founder I have so much going on, it's easy for things to slip through the cracks, whether personal or professional. This is a great way to help remember the important stuff and get it done! Congrats to the team and best of luck with the launch!
Love the simplicity of this! Sometimes all you need is a clear reminder, not a bunch of complicated task management features. How customizable are the alerts?
Super smart idea! I constantly forget short tasks like following up on emails—DeskMinder seems perfect for that. Can’t wait to try it out!
One of the key things we have power over and can control is our focus of attention.
Useful app.
DeskMinder feels like the perfect balance between subtle and impossible-to-ignore. Congrats on the launch
Wishing you a successful product launch! 🚀 May your hard work pay off, your users love what you’ve built, and your vision turn into a great success. Here's to innovation, growth, and exciting new opportunities ahead! 🎉
Wow! The product looks great! I've tried to use widgets, but this approach should work much better.
Congrats on the launch, Dmytro! 🎉 DeskMinder looks super useful - wishing you great success! 🚀
