A reminder is a nudge at a time you choose. Bubsby never sets one without you.
What this does
- Sends a push notification at the date and time you set.
- Can repeat daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly.
- Shows up on the item card with a small bell icon and the next time.
When to use this
- "Tell me to defrost the chicken at 4pm."
- "Every Monday morning, remind me to pack swimming gear."
- "On the day of the school photo, nudge me at 7am."
How it works
- From any item, tap Set Reminder (also offered automatically after you add something dated).
- Pick a date.
- Pick a time (defaults to 9am if you only set a date).
- Optionally choose a repeat: once, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly.
- Tap Confirm.
Important things to know
- Notifications must be turned on. If they're not, Bubsby tells you and gives you a one-tap link to settings.
- Reminders are confirmed before they save — you'll see a final summary screen.
- The bell icon on item cards shows the next active reminder time.
- Reminders sent to other people (delegated) only become active once they accept — see Delegated Reminders.
Common questions
- Can I get more than one reminder for the same item? Yes — add several. The card shows the next one due.
- What if I miss a reminder? It's still in your Inbox; nothing is lost. Reschedule or mark done.
- Can I get a reminder without a date? No — reminders need a time to fire at.
