Hi all,

Looking to self-host a reminder/scheduling application preferably with
either iOS app or ability to push notifications to iOS.

Just want to be able to schedule things like mow lawns weekly, take
bins out weekly, clean car monthly etc. recurring events basically a
must have feature.

Thanks :)

Like a CalDAV solution? Something like Radicale?

I’ve had a look at like that, not sure that really does what I want.
Looks like it just adds events to a calendar?

It's essentially a Calendar server. Or are you looking for something
where you can assign things to other people?

When you create a calendar in Radicale, you have the option to set the
type to "calendar", "tasks", or both. When you then add the calendar
account to IOS, you will also see the the ones that are tasks on the
Reminders app as lists. They work just like the default lists.

Not necessarily assign to others. But was more chasing something
seperate to a calendar. Otherwise it all just becomes to cluttered.
Especially using iOS calendar as it cannot differentiate colours of
events.

So to confirm it can add them to reminders iOS app not just calendar?
If so this might be it for me!

got the application up and running but im really not sure how to use

I think that’s the one I used in the end. Got it up and running, but
didn’t really understand how to use radicale so I’ll need to do some
research. I understand how to add calendar but not reminders

Here's a prime:

In Radicale, tap "Create a new address book or calendar. If you only
want to have reminders, choose "tasks" under Type

You can add as many as needed. Each one will have it's own URL.

in IOS, go to Settings > Calendar > Accounts > Add Account.

Choose Other > Add CalDAV account and fill in your Radicale server
details.

Once you added your Radical server, just make sure "Reminders" is
enabled.

Once that's done, you should be able to see the Radicale lists in
Reminders. See my Home and Groceries list on Redicale and Reminders on
the screenshots below.
