Validating an aggressive deadline reminder app
People who delay tasks until the last moment may still fail to act even when they keep a to-do list. Normal reminders often appear only once or twice, and sometimes just a few hours before the deadline, so they may not break the habit of procrastinating. The proposed product is an app that sends more frequent and stronger reminders as a task deadline gets closer.
The goal is to interrupt phone scrolling and bring the unfinished task back into view. The core question is whether many people face this same problem, and whether they would ly use an app that pushes them this hard.

- Normal to-do reminders may be too rare and too late to change behavior.
- The idea is an app that becomes more forceful as the deadline gets closer.
- The product assumes repeated reminders can interrupt phone scrolling and restart focus.
- The main thing to is whether people would ly use this kind of aggressive reminder app.
