Writing it down and remembering it in time are not the same

A note you wrote does not arrive on its own, least of all when it is pinned to a window you are not looking at. Give a note a time and it tells you then; add a repeat and it comes back daily, on weekdays, or weekly at the same time.

A single reminder

For things that end once they are done — "reply at 3pm", "submit before 5" — set the time and go back to work. When it fires you can jump straight to the window that note belongs to.

Repeating reminders

Choose daily, weekdays (Mon–Fri) or weekly. Morning checks and weekly reports fit here.

Reminders that live with the window

The reminder belongs to the note and the note belongs to a window. It still fires while that window is closed, and the note returns to its place when the window opens again.

What pairs well with it

ChecklistsPut times only on the items that have deadlines and the list stays quiet.
Favourites and archiveMove finished notes to the archive to clear the screen.
TrashDeleted notes stay in the trash and can be brought back.

Frequently asked questions

Do reminders survive a reboot?

Yes. The time is stored with the note and is kept when the app starts again.

Does a reminder steal focus?

It does not interrupt what you are doing. You decide whether to go to the note or its window.
