Reminders silently stop
iPhone keeps at most 64 scheduled notifications. Book a whole year and the later ones are dropped. Dashitene books the nearest ones and refills automatically.
Garbage day reminders for Japan
Garbage day,
the night before.
Japanese collection schedules are tricky: “1st and 3rd Wednesday”, “every other Tuesday”, holidays and the New Year break. Enter them exactly as your ward's calendar says, and Dashitene reminds you every week — without quietly stopping after a few months.

Why Dashitene
We fixed what people complain about most.
Built after reading about 950 App Store reviews of the two most popular garbage-day apps in Japan.
My ward's rules don't fit
“1st & 3rd Wednesday”, “Monday of week 2”, “every other month”. Dashitene speaks the same language as your ward's calendar.
Setting it up for everyone
One person sets it up and sends a link. Family members get the same schedule with one tap — or view it in a browser without the app.
Schedules
Is the “1st Wednesday” the same as “Wednesday of week 1”?
Not always. When a month starts on Thursday or later, the first calendar row has no Wednesday, so the two counts differ. Try your ward's rule.

Features
Everything weekly garbage needs. Nothing else.
Evening before, morning of
Up to two reminders per type. Types due on the same day are merged into one notification.
“Done” stops the rest
Tap Done on the notification or widget and the remaining reminders for that day stay quiet.
A real alarm on Silent
With Plus, reminders ring like a Clock app alarm, for early-morning pickups.
Holidays and breaks
Japanese national holidays built in, plus the New Year break and one-off changes your ward announces.
Widgets
“Tomorrow: Burnable” on the Home and Lock Screen. Switches to tomorrow after noon.

FAQ
Questions
Is the app in English?
Yes. The app follows your iPhone language (Japanese or English). Garbage type names are yours to edit, so you can keep the Japanese words from your ward's calendar next to English ones.
Is “1st Wednesday” different from “Wednesday of week 1”?
Sometimes. The 1st Wednesday is the first Wednesday of the month; Wednesday of week 1 is the Wednesday in the first row of the calendar. When the month starts on Thursday or later, that row has no Wednesday. Pick whichever your ward's calendar uses. Read the guide.
Will reminders stop after a while?
No. iPhone limits scheduled notifications to 64, so Dashitene books the nearest ones and refills them when you open the app and in the background. If it ever runs low, it asks you to open the app once.
Does it ring on Silent?
With Dashitene Plus and “Ring as an alarm” on, yes: it uses iOS 26 AlarmKit, like the Clock app. Regular notifications follow your Silent switch.
Can my family see it without the app?
Yes. The share link opens a page with the upcoming collection days. Android users can also import the .ics calendar export.
