Desktop Reminder is a personal organizer which allows users to add, remove and edit tasks needing to be done on a daily basis.The user interface of the program is basic and includes a list of added tasks a long with large icons in the top portion. You can add new tasks, modify them or delete them quickly from the top bar. Once a task has been completed, marking it as done is also quick and simple.For individual tasks, you can have Desktop Reminder set priority, deadline and a description which are entered into the list. Tasks can be scheduled to be repeated at certain intervals. Once a deadline approaches, Desktop Reminded will display a notification so that important deadlines are not missed.The program's basic interface and functionality are both a drawback and an advantage -- making it easy-to-use but also giving users less in terms of features.Overall, Desktop Reminder is a basic and useful task manager and personal organizer perfect for users looking for something basic and simple.Features of Desktop Reminder
Reminders is a simple, straightforward GTK4/libadwaita app that lets you schedule reminders for any task you want, and be notified of them using native desktop notifications. Basically, this app lets you set reminders as notifications.
The app also lets you create recurring reminders very easily. So instead of cluttering up your calendar with recurring events (which is how I remind myself to inject my medication every fortnight) you can set-up a single reminder here, set it as recurring, and let it do its thing.
Of course, there are plenty of other ways to set up reminders on Linux. Some involve user-friendly apps (such as this one); some are web-based (ideal when working across devices); while others are of a more technical bent (like configuring a cron job).
It's easy to forget things when you've got a full plate, but fortunately, Windows offers multiple ways to set reminders. You can set up a one-off or recurring reminder based on your schedule, so you never forget about submitting a document on time or drinking a glass of water every couple of hours.
The easiest way to set reminders on Windows is to tell Windows you want to be reminded about something. If you can't find Cortana, there's a good chance you've disabled it in the past. As such, check out our guide on how to enable Cortana to get her back.
You can open Cortana with the Win + C keyboard shortcut. Once you're signed in, you can ask her to set a reminder using your microphone. Of course, if you've disallowed Cortana from using the computer's mic, you can just type the command out for Cortana like so:
Cortana will create a reminder for you in Microsoft To-Do, which comes pre-installed on Windows 11. However, if you're not a fan of Cortana, you can also directly set up a reminder using Microsoft To-Do.
If you want to set a recurring reminder, click on Repeat > Custom and select a frequency at which you want to be reminded about the task. The highest frequency is "Daily," which makes To-Do less useful for hourly reminders, and much more suited for daily or weekly tasks.
Uncheck the box to the left of All day and then select a time range. If you're setting a reminder for drinking a glass of water, though, just enter the same time as both the starting and ending time. Then, select when you want to be reminded about the event or task.
Windows has several apps and functionalities that help you set reminders. However, if you want to set hourly reminders, you'll need to use a third-party task management app. If you're looking for a better way to set reminders, consider setting reminders on your mobile phone. You're more likely to have a mobile phone with you when you're not at your desk, so you're less likely to miss a reminder.
I know this was in thread but it is no longer editable, and is still an issue. The whole point of reminders is to set dates and time to remind you, so why is that essential functionality left out of the browser view? Yes I have Macbook Air for mobile use but when I'm at home fort 10 hours per day I'm working on my Linux desktop with three monitors, and part of my day is organising what I'm doing. This lack of functionality seriously hinders this for me and makes me feel like just revering to Google Keep which functions identically across all OSs and devices. Surely Apple can just give us the basics as this is not an unrealistic request?
No I don't see anything appear on the right. For reminders that had dates set on the phone I see a date and time underneath the reminder, but clicking on that makes no changes. What exactly are you seeing on the right, and does something pop up for you? Do you see date and time details on the right, where I'm seeing it underneath the reminder?
I'm still really blown away by a reminders app that has no ability to set or change the date from the iCloud view. I see this was logged by others since 2019 already so clearly it's just not going to happen. It's become a major dealbreaker for me as I do most of my heavy planning on a desktop computer (non-MacOS) with three large monitors. I'm going to have to move all my reminders back to Google Keep again where at least it is fully functional across my iPhone, Macbook, and other desktop. I was really hoping that I had just missed something obvious.
