Say it once
Type or say the task in plain words. If you mention a time, a repeat, or when to be reminded, Recordo fills those in. Check the saved task and fix anything it got wrong.
ADHD reminders that catch the task before it slips away
With ADHD, out of sight really is out of mind: the call you remembered at 8 is gone by 3. Tell Recordo “call the dentist at 3, remind me an hour before” and the task is saved with its time and reminder. When it goes off, check it off right from the notification.
A reminder that knows what it is reminding you about
Every reminder belongs to a task, so it follows that task’s time and status instead of ringing on its own.
Choose the nudge that works for you
No reminder, at the due time, or minutes or hours before. Set a default once in Profile, then change it for any single task.
Close the loop from the notification
Tap Complete on the reminder to check the task off without opening the app. Tap the notification itself to open the task in Momentum Mode, with a plan, a coach, and a timer.
Why it beats a plain alarm
An alarm rings at a time and knows nothing else. A Recordo reminder moves when you move the task, stays quiet once the task is done or cancelled, and skips a routine you already finished today. Fewer pointless alarms make the real ones easier to trust.
Reminders are push notifications, so they need notification permission on your phone and can be held back by Focus, Do Not Disturb, or battery settings. They can arrive a few minutes after the time you pick.
Built for routines and the tasks that slip
Reminders are one part of it. These keep the rest of your week from falling through the cracks.
Routines on repeat
Say “take meds every day at 8” or “pay rent on the 1st” and the task repeats. Finishing today’s does not remove tomorrow’s, and you can cancel one day or the whole routine.
A morning nudge for yesterday’s leftovers
If your morning starts with nothing added, Recordo sends a gentle nudge. When a task from yesterday is still open, the nudge names it and offers to break it into smaller steps. You can turn off Daily nudges in Profile.
Your tasks in your own calendar with Pro
Pro gives you a private calendar link that shows Recordo tasks in Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, or Outlook. Those apps refresh the link on their own schedule, so changes can take a while to show up.
Reminder questions
Can Recordo remind me before a task is due?
Yes. Choose the due time itself, 10 or 30 minutes before, 1 or 2 hours before, or a custom number of minutes. If you never set a default, reminders come 10 minutes before.
Can I set a reminder just by saying it?
Yes. Phrases like “remind me an hour before” or “no reminder for this one” set the reminder for that task. If you do not mention a reminder, your default applies.
Do recurring tasks get reminders?
Yes. Each occurrence of a routine with a time gets its own reminder, and if you have already completed today’s occurrence, that reminder is skipped.
Can I turn off one task’s reminder?
Yes. Choose No reminder for that task. It keeps its time and still shows up in Today and the planner.
Why didn’t a reminder arrive?
Check that notifications are allowed for Recordo and that Task reminders is on in Profile. A task needs both a date and a time to be reminded, and the web app does not send browser notifications.
Are reminders free?
Yes. Task reminders, recurring tasks, and daily nudges are free. Pro adds calendar integration and more AI chat each day.
Stop relying on remembering to remember
Say the task once, pick when you want the nudge, and let Recordo hold onto it until then.
