How do you encourage kids to be more independent?

I feel like I’m constantly reminding my son what he needs to do next, even with really basic everyday things. I’d like him to become a little more independent without turning it into arguments or constant pressure. Parents of younger kids, did you find anything that helped with this?
 
Funny enough, we started Leaply for a slightly different reason, but it ended up helping us create more structure at home. My daughter now knows there’s a small activity to complete and doesn’t need much prompting from me. If you’re considering it, this leaply app review is worth a look. It covers the Kids Plan from a parent’s perspective.
