Skip a week and nothing breaks
A reminder you can live with is one you can ignore this week without paying for it next week.
What this actually looks like
Nagging stops working
The tenth notification about the same person gets swiped away, and then all of them do.
Too many people, too fast
You added everyone you know, felt overwhelmed by the list, and deleted the app.
Streaks make it worse
A streak about to break turns a friend into a chore.
What Ciao! does about it
One note, not one per friend
Everyone who is due that day goes into one note, in the evening. On Sunday, one more if anyone is waiting.
No streaks, no red numbers
Nothing counts up against you. The face gets worried, and is happy again when you talk.
Start with three
Start with a few people. Add more as you get used to it.
Try it with someone you know.
