👋 Hi, I'm
I'm 11 and in 6th grade. In my free time I like making apps and figuring out how to fix stuff that bugs me. Most of what I build I never even finish, but one of them actually made it onto the App Store, and that's DayForge.
The problem
Permission slips signed on the morning they were due. My mom texting "did you pack your water bottle?" like every other day. Nobody wrote reminders in the same place — it was a sticky note here, a text there, or just hoping someone remembered.
It wasn't a huge deal, but it kept happening. So I figured I'd try to build something for it.
"It's such a small problem. There has to be a simple way to fix it."
How I built it
I worked on it on weekends and whenever I had free time between homework. A lot of what I made didn't work or I just scrapped it and started over. A few versions I deleted after like a week.
The idea I kept coming back to was simple: one app where the whole family could see the same reminders, and it actually felt fun to open instead of feeling like another chore list.
eventually, it worked. mostly.
An app for family reminders and checklists that kids actually want to open. Parents can see what's going on without asking, and nothing gets forgotten in a group chat again.
Not just a reminder that says "pack for practice" — an actual list, so you don't forget the shin guards.
Keeping a streak going and collecting diamonds makes finishing your list feel worth doing.
Parents get one email that sums up the week instead of having to check in every day.
zero bugs, according to my testing — my mom's phone may disagree
Made so nobody forgets the small stuff anymore.
