# Lately

> Lately is an iOS app (with an Apple Watch companion) that helps people with ADHD and time blindness stop being chronically late. Users enter a destination, arrival time, and transport method; Lately schedules Apple Reminders, SMS alerts, and a lock-screen countdown telling them exactly when to leave. Friends can be attached to events so they're pinged when you're running behind — adding gentle social accountability.

Lately is built and maintained by Erik MacInnis. The product is built in public, shipped for iOS 18+ / watchOS 11+, localized in English, Spanish, and French, and available on the Apple App Store.
