Made to get through

More signal.
Less background noise.

Built for people whose ordinary notifications have become easy to miss, dismiss, or forget.

Calendar & Reminders integration

Works with the schedule you already have.

Connect your existing calendars and reminders. Choose the commitments that matter, and Hard Stops turns them into alerts that are much harder to miss.

01

Impossible to overlook

Full-screen takeovers on Mac and unmistakable notifications on iPhone give important commitments the attention they deserve.

02

Know when to leave

Add a destination and buffer time so a deadline becomes a practical leave-by plan—not just another event on a calendar.

03

Ready on every device

Create recurring or one-time Hard Stops and keep them in sync across your Mac and iPhone with private iCloud storage.

04

An alert you recognize

Choose a distinct sound for the moments that matter, then act right from the notification: done, snooze, or open Maps.

For real life

Some moments deserve a hard stop.

Not every event is urgent. Mark the ones that are, and let Hard Stops protect them from the rest of your day.
