DeskMinder

This lightweight macOS utility, developed by Dmytro, allows you to set up short, on-screen reminders with a single click, making it easy to stay on top of quick tasks without interrupting your workflow. A timer widget remains visible on your screen for as long as you need it, and when the countdown ends, the entire screen blurs to draw your attention to the task, after which the timer is automatically dismissed.

DeskMinder also gives you the possibility of synchronizing the content with the Apple Reminders app, enabling you to transfer all your existing reminders directly into the utility for a simpler experience. The user interface is not only smooth and intuitive but also showcases remarkably fluid animations that align beautifully with Apple’s new Liquid Glass design system, introduced at WWDC25.

‎DeskMinder. Reminders & Tasks

‎A simple yet effective app for anyone prone to distractions. DeskMinder focuses on short-term reminders you can set in seconds. Stay on top of your tasks with easy-to-create desktop pop-ups. Instead of digging through complex calendars, just click once to set a quick reminder—ideal for urgent to-do…

This article by Sebastiann de With is a must-read, considering it was published before the announcement of Liquid Glass.

It explores a shift beyond flat design toward interfaces that feel alive, glass-like surfaces that respond to light, depth, and motion envisioning a future where digital elements take inspiration from the physicality of the device itself, for a richer, more immersive and cohesive UI language.

Physicality: the new age of UI

There’s a lot of rumors of a big impending UI redesign from Apple. Let’s imagine what’s (or what could be) next for the design of iPhones, Macs and iPads.
