Schedule reminder notifications for tabs or notes and create custom intervals for days of the week or time increments.
Remind yourself of that interesting article you just found, daily tasks, drink water, get up and walk around, or maybe just to check a website again. The extension allows you to easily set reminders for tab URLs and/or notes. You will receive a Chrome notification for the date and time of the reminder.
🚨🚨 Important Note! 🚨🚨
Make sure that you have notifications for Chrome and Chrome Notification Helpers enabled. The reminder notifications will not show if this is not enabled. You can check this by going to your browser settings and searching for notifications. Or, by checking the system settings on your computer.
For Windows users, there is a video here that shows how to allow notifications - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qudjOsPWpMQ

How to Set Reminders
---------------------------------------
1. Install the extension.
2. Browse to a tab you want to be reminded of or use the extension popup to enter a custom note.
3. Include URLs and notes
🔗 Include Tab URL:
Switch this on to link your reminder to the current webpage. When the reminder notification pops up, clicking on it will open the linked URL, allowing you to close the tab after setting the reminder.
🖊️ Include Note Text:
Activate this to access a text area to jot down notes for your reminder. This is useful for adding detailed information to your tasks.
4. Or, use Quick Set Options
💥 For immediate reminders, use one of the quick options: 'in 30 mins', 'in 1 hour', 'in 1 day', or 'in 1 week'.
5. Set Date and Time Configuration
🗓️ Date: Choose a future date for your reminder. For repeating reminders, the blue dot signifies the 'first' date in the series.
🕟 Time: Set a future time when you want the reminder to alert you. Make sure that both date and time are set ahead of the current time to ensure proper scheduling.
6. Repeat Schedule
From the 'Repeat' dropdown, select how often you want the reminder to occur. Your choices can range from once to recurring patterns like daily or weekly. The starting date of this sequence is indicated by a blue dot.
7. Add Reminder
Hit the 'Remind me' button to save your reminder. You can close the tab after setting the reminder, since clicking on the reminder notification will reopen the URL when it’s time.
8. Upcoming Reminders
The 'Upcoming' section allows you to see all reminders that are set.
Make sure that notifications are enabled for the browser. Notifications have to be enabled for the browser, not just the extension. You can check this by going to your browser settings and searching for notifications. Or, by checking the system settings on your computer.
Receive browser notifications when it's time!
