I put a calendar widget, an alarm widget, and google keeps widget on my phone’s homescreen. It helps a lot when it’s the first thing I see. I also use Nova Launcher to make everything more aesthetically pleasing, which helps incentives me to use them. I also love true black backgrounds for OLED screens (one less distraction and saves battery).
I have my calendar on my home screen and I just ignore it because now it’s just part of the scenery. The only thing that actually helps me remember things is having a smart watch with alarms because I don’t ignore the haptics on my wrist.
Remembering to keep it charged though? That’s a whole other thing.
I do that, too. I bought a USB power bar that sits on my nightstand, so I’m more likely to charge my devices. Do you ever get “ghost notifications”? Like, your pocket or wrist feels like it’s vibrating, and you perk up?
Yeah I have my chargers on my nightstand and I put my phone on the charger every night no problem, but my watch and ring (I have an Oura) I want to wear at night (for the haptic alarm that doesn’t wake my partner, and sleep tracking); so a lot of nights I end up laying in bed on my phone for 30+ minutes past when I wanted to go to sleep just waiting for them to charge enough.
Also, I used to occasionally have phantom notifications but now that I think about it I don’t think I have for a while. 🤷
I love KISS Launcher! I remember when it first came out, I immediately made myself a pipboy using an online tutorial.
I only stopped using it once android started enabling widget customization. Dropping it mildly increased performance on my phone, but I’m cheap, so my hardware isn’t the best.

Is one butt spanking for the entire month really enough?
I’ll double book next month.
Sometimes that is all you have the energy for.
You don’t realize how severe the spanking is though…

I forget how phones look after using kiss launcher for a few years now and everything is text based seeing icons makes me so confused
