Side Reminder

On macOS, Side Reminder sits on the edge of your screen and slides in when you move the mouse to that edge, so Apple Reminders is always one gesture away.

Side Reminder is a macOS productivity app that adds a faster front end and extra features to the native Reminders app.

It is built with SwiftUI and works with iCloud, so your existing lists stay where they already are.

Beyond the slide-out panel, the app adds Kanban boards for your tasks, a built-in terminal, and AI agent integration that can carry out tasks rather than just store them.

Voice input is private and runs on the device.

The terminal and agent features point at power users, so if you only want a simple checklist, the standard Reminders app may be enough.

If you keep Reminders open all day and dislike switching windows, the edge-access idea is the main draw.
