Remember It ($0.99) is an incredibly clever iPhone app that can provide users with a helpful reminder if they leave anything important - like a prototype iPhone 4 - at a bar, or anywhere the item isn't meant to be.
Basically, once you've reached a destination - like a bar or theatre - you open Remember It, and tag the location. Then, once you're outside of a preset radius (50, 200, or 500 feet), the application will sound an alarm, reminding you to have picked up your important item.
As explained by the app's developer, in Remember It's release notes:
Remember It App was an invention born of necessity. A night of heavy drinking, a bar tab left open, and a horrible hangover the next morning all led to the sinking realization that I'd lost my credit card. As I stared into my coffee at IHOP and dug for enough change to pay for my Rooty Tooty Fresh and Frooty, I asked myself why there isn't an alarm that would keep me from forgetting things in a specific place. Necessity spawned invention. I made a nice little cartoon for you, but it's really pretty simple. Set the alarm in a place and it goes off when you leave that place.Currently, Remember It is available to purchase for $0.99. While it's a simple app, Remember It undoubtedly serves a purpose effectively - it's definitely something many Apple fans will use and appreciate. Check it out in the App Store and let us know your thoughts in the comments.
