1. 5/5Why you should start using this app?

   This app is great for Reminders because you can like mark your friends birthday for years like there and you can go to like a bunch of years. I didn’t check to see the marking but you can go to 2025, 2026 probably and because you can schedule us certain time and the best part is like if you have like I don’t know something to do and you know you will forget or something or if your mom tells you to make sure you, tell her that we need to go to the gas station and pick up the milk. You can set a reminder if she saying we’re leaving like 8 AM. and you would just like said it for I don’t know probably like 815 or something because like that’ll just be a good time so it’s just you so now you won’t get in trouble because you forgot so yeah so that’s why I give this a five star. It’s like pretty useful when you think about it like you I don’t know forgetting and getting in trouble you can do that and like you can be looking forward to it if you said it or not alarm it’s like it won’t be covered up by your messages it will be brought and so as soon as you open your phone, you will see it, which is great. I hope you guys use that because it’s like really good and stuff so bye, that’s it about it

2. 4/5No hourly reminders?

   **UPDATE — drag & drop gui for rearranging/recategorizing reminders is very nice 👌🏻 END UPDATE** Found reference in articles online as recent as April 2022 to an option for hourly recurring reminders but cannot find it myself in the app as of this review. This would be great to have, am currently figuring on what the best way to accomplish this will be & it’s a bummer that I’ll probably need to find some additional app to use. I wouldn’t limit such feature to hourly (as in every 1 hour) either, no reason # of hours shouldn’t be user selectable in the same way # of days is, unless there is some performance/overhead consideration. Reminders app is very useful & nicely designed overall, it does everything needed except more-frequently-than-daily reminders with minimal if any pain points in the interface. It’s an app that I use every day & helps a lot with overall organization if I make the effort to notate things consistently as they come up. I like it for keeping track of long term recurring subscription, free trial period end dates, bills that aren’t on autopay, miscellaneous tasks throughout the day that are easy to put off and forget, and so on. A shortcut to bring up the time selector directly for today reminders would be an appreciated addition 👍🏻 it’s something I do fairly often for those same-day forgetmenots & would be nice to reduce the number of taps needed to do it.

3. 3/5Hate the update!!

   I used to love this app. I use it for everything, from work reminders, shopping list to all sorts of things. I love that you can set a timer on it to remind you on a specific date and a specific time. This thing saves my life. However the most recent update (4/22) is not so awesome. When you check off an item it hesitates before it removes it. I can see the benefit of this (giving you the opportunity to undo something you did before it disappears) but sometimes I then click it again to make sure it is selected which then deselects it and the hesitation is such that it makes it difficult to get that completed, me selecting it and unselecting it and so until I just wait until it disappears. I also don’t like that I can’t check off an item from the lock screen. Before, the reminder would come up and show as a banner and I could mark it as completed right there on the lock screen. But now all I can do is silence it and then I have to go into the app to check it as complete. This is annoying. It’s an extra step that I shouldn’t have to do. I wish they’d bring that piece back. Otherwise it’s a great app and I use it a lot. Also, i used to be able to snooze a reminder…have it come up the next day. That seems gone too. Super annoying to have to go in the app and reset it when it used to be an easy button tap on lock screen. Please fix these changes

4. 1/5Slipping into obsolescence

   I have relied on this app for years to manage a handful of recurring cyclical list such as groceries or packing for a trip. In which I will repeatedly remove items only to add them back later. For this purpose, it’s quite annoying that there is no search bar in individual lists, you can only search items in all of reminders at once. So the workflow keeping track of a large list involves constantly going back to the main page to search and see if you’ve already got an item on the list list uncheck it, and then returning to the main list. The real problem begins for me, because as of recently, I have noticed that search is not indexing all of my list anymore. In fact, it’s not indexing my most used list, my grocery list, at all. So every time I want to quickly find an uncheck a few items by name from the completed list, I have no way of searching for them in the many many items on that reminder list. And when I do finally find that item and uncheck it, if I return to search on the main page, it will then be found in the search results. This is for the developers, please fix this bug or reconsider the logic if it is part of a misguided feature. I can only assume since some completed items do return in results there is a logic at play. Whether it is certain lists, or items created at older than a certain date that are not being shown, it is making the app that I have used for years for multiple every day tasks completely obsolete enforcing me to figure out new solutions.

5. 5/5Helping me stay on track so I don’t forget

   The set up was a little bit challenging for me at first. But once I got the hang of it, it has been running well! I was recently given medications for multiple times a day and I wanted to be sure I took them on time so my body could metabolize them like clockwork. Im not huge on taking pills, and this was important, to be honest, with pain killers and other meds and supplements. Once I set this all up to alarm me to take my meds, it’s been great!! And sometimes I use it for day to day stuff that pop up that are out of routine and I don’t want to wander to procrastination so it helps me out! I have tried to get my husband to use this too for the same reasons. But in case anyone reads this, it does connect to your calendar app so when you look over the calendar it’s listed there too! It’s nice to look back on when I started checking off all my reminders when they happen, it’s rewarding to see Ive been pretty successful! I’d be a bit of a clock watcher without this and if I get busy, The time can easily get away from me! Sound familiar? So try this out!! It helps to not be a time chaser, and as long as you’re near your device you’ll know Whrn it’s time to do what it is you needed to do.
