Due: The Superfast Reminder App for iPhone & iPad

If you are not happy with the current reminder app in your iPhone or iPad, "Due: The Superfast Reminder App for iPhone & iPad" is for you.

I have been using Due for 2 years and counting. Why do I like it? First, it is really fast and slick when adding a reminder, or a timer.

When a reminder went off, you can quickly tap to acknowledge it or double tap to extend the time. Beside that, you can also choose to snooze, which is very useful for me as sometimes I'm not ready to do something and will do it says, 30 minutes later.

If you tap on a reminder's check box, Due will move it to the Logbook tab which you can reuse/recycle the reminder. It saves time from typing! If your reminder is a repeating reminder, the check box will show as a circle which will push the reminder to the next date/time.

Due's Timers is also frequently used by me. Let's say I want to cook an instant noodle or boil an egg, I just need to switch the 3 minutes timer on with a tap and tap it again to stop.

Another function I like in Due is the ability to backup and sync to DropBox. You can then make sure your reminders are safe if you something happened to your device. You may choose to auto sync at launch or on exit.

And lastly the built in alert sounds. I really love the Glass Ping sounds as you can see below. It is soft but loud enough for me to hear and not to disturb people around me.

My short apps review is based on my own usage and it might not cover all the functions in an app. Try it yourself and comment below if you prefer a different reminder apps.

Our Penang trip starts with eating Penang's local food at Kedai Kopi New Cathay (新國泰茶室) . Once we reached Penang, dropped our luggages and took bath at our homestay Havara Place ), we walked to Kedai Kopi New Cathay for local food. This hawker food restaurant is introduced by our homestay owner since it is his favourite place for delicious local Penang food and also within walking distance from our bungalow homestay. Penang Hawker Food - Char Kuey Teow Come to Penang must eat Penang Char Kuey Teow , right? The Char Kuey Teow here at Kedai Kopi New Cathay has big fresh prawns as shown in the photo above. One of the best Char Kuey Teow I ever ate, but I have not eaten other Char Kuey Teow here in Penang. Most of my dates with Char Kuey Teow were in Petaling Jaya and Kuala Lumpur stalls only. Cockles (siham) spotted. A must have optional item in your Char Kuey Teow. When I'm chewing my Char Kuey Teow, it is always exciting to spot some siham swimming between the kuey teow...

Lala Chong Seafood Restaurant At Kampung Sungai Kayu Ara, Petaling Jaya

Image
Lala Chong Seafood Restaurant  at Kampung Sungai Kayu Ara is one of our favorite Chinese seafood restaurant in Petaling Jaya. Before this, the restaurant was operating near Subang Airport. In Kampung Sungai Kayu Ara, our other favorite Chinese restaurant is the Damansara Village Steamboat Restaurant as blogged on my blog post here . Lala Chong's specialty is their big and juicy lala, thus the name Lala Chong. We saw many customer eating their crab as well but we never had the chance to try their crab. Steamed lala soup is the must order dish here in Lala Chong Seafood Restaurant. The tasty addictive soup goes well with white rice. I can just eat the soup and the rice alone. This dish is also served with candle to keep the soup warm throughout the dinner. Big, fat and juicy lala. The lala are clean and no sand found in the body. Steamed tilapia. Fresh and delicious but personally I'm still prefer steamed Tilapia at Restoran Lan Je Steamed Fish as blogged on my blog post here . ...

Visiting Peacock Garden and Wen Wu Temple during Taiwan Trip to Taichung and Taipei

Image
On the way to Wen Wu Temple, we stopped for a while at Peacock Garden.  I think there are only around 30 peacocks here.  Nothing special if you have seen a peacock before in real life. The Peacock Garden. Can you see any peacock? A nice peacock, too bad it didn't expand the tail. A white peacock staring at my black lens. Is this a peacock or a chicken?  Looks like a chicken to me. Another peacock with nice hair After looking at the peacock, we went to Wen Wu Temple.  Wenwu Temple is located at the shoulder of mountain, north of Sun Moon Lake .  It was built in 1938 when the people are worried the water of Sun Moon Lake will cover Longfeng Temple and Ihuatang of Shuishotsun,  so they built the Wen Wu Temple. Year of Steps is the original entrance to the temple.  There are 366 steps of stair which represents the days in a year.  Now it leads down to the the Sun Moon Lake.  We just take some photos from the top but didn't climb down as we worrie...
