In Your Face

Your calendar pings. You ignore it. Then you panic.

That’s not a “you” problem. That’s a notification problem.

In Your Face is built for the moment when you’re deep in code, writing, design, or support hell - and your normal alerts bounce off your brain like foam darts. The app doesn’t ask nicely. It takes the screen.

What it does (and why it works)

It blocks your entire screen when it’s time to go. Not a tiny banner. Not a polite chime. A full-screen alert that breaks hyperfocus and kills time blindness on contact.

You can run it on Mac, iPhone, and iPad, which matters because missing meetings doesn’t only happen at your desk. It happens when you walk away “for two minutes” and reappear thirty minutes later.

Here’s the deal: if you’re prone to ADHD-style hyperfocus, you don’t need more reminders. You need a reminder that wins.

The feature list that actually matters

• One-click joins for calls. In Your Face reads calendar events and pulls out video links, with support for 30+ conferencing services. When the alert hits, you click and you’re in.
• Event filters. Only get yelled at for meetings that count. Skip the noise.
• Per-event overrides. Big client call? Earlier warning. Internal sync? Later.
• Pause alerts. Handy when you share your screen or you’re in the middle of a live demo.
• Custom sounds + themes. Make it loud. Make it ugly. Make it yours.
• Apple Reminders support. Time-critical tasks get the same “pay attention” treatment.
• Keyboard shortcuts. Fast control when you don’t want to dig through menus.

It gets worse: the cost of being late isn’t the meeting. It’s the trust you burn.

In Your Face (inyourface.app) isn’t trying to be a calendar. It’s the last line of defense between “I was in the flow” and “sorry I’m late… again”.
