This is just me venting mainly, but if you have some ideas of things you wish existed, please post them.
First of all, obviously what I need is a younger person to remember things for me. Literally by my side to remind me of stuff. I used to have that in Mrs. Flops who is eight years younger. She kept me on track many a time. But now age is affecting her also.
Anyway what prompted me to start this is that I would like to have a timer app that counts up instead of down. For example, I now set something cooking and want to time it for thirty minutes. The timer goes 30:00, 29:59, etc.
I immediately forget how long I set it for.
I would prefer a timer that goes 00:01, 00:02 with the target time displayed also. It should go off at 30:00 but keep counting up.
Also a phone app for security codes that banks, etc. send. It is absurd that I sign into my bank account on my phone and then my bank sends my phone a code for me to prove it is me. If a criminal can sign into my account on my own phone, he won't be stopped by having to look at my tests and enter a code. Let an app detect the text and automatically populate it and hit send or whatever.
One more app: A voice activated AI voice recorder that lets me say aloud "Going to the garage for duct tape to attach the book cover." so when get to the garage, see a tool out of place and put it back, thus forgetting WTF I was in the garage n the first place, I can say "What?" and it will tell me "get the duct tape to fix the book." This may exist already.
