Reminders

A reminder in Working Memory is just a sentence with a time in it. You don't fill out a form, pick a date from a calendar, or tap through screens — you say what you'd say, and the AI works out when.

Setting one

Any time-based phrase in a message becomes a reminder:

• "remind me to call mom tomorrow at 9"
• "text the landlord next friday"
• "in two hours, check on the dough"
• "after lunch, email the proposal"

When the time comes, you get a notification on your phone — see Push notifications for setup. The original wording is preserved, so the reminder reads like you wrote it, not like a robot rewrote it.

Setting several at once

You can stack multiple reminders into one message and the AI splits them:

"remind me to email the landlord today at 5, then again wednesday morning if no reply"

Two reminders, one sentence. Use the same trick when you're planning a sequence — "in 30 minutes, take the chicken out; in an hour, preheat the oven; in 90 minutes, start the rice" gives you three nudges from one message.

Editing one after it's set

You don't need to find the reminder in a list and tap edit. Just say what you want to change in a follow-up message:

• "actually move the landlord reminder to thursday"
• "change the dentist reminder to 3pm instead of 2"
• "the call with raj — make it next week, not this one"

The AI figures out which reminder you mean from the context (the person, the topic, or the timing) and updates it. If it's ambiguous — say you have two reminders about Raj — it'll ask which one.

Cancelling

Same idea. Plain language:

• "cancel the landlord reminder"
• "cancel my reminder to call mom"
• "cancel all my reminders for today"
• "drop the wednesday follow-up"

A cancel confirmation comes back so you know which ones were dropped. If nothing matched (typo, wrong day), the AI tells you that instead of silently doing nothing.

Recurring reminders

For things that repeat on a schedule, say so:

• "every monday at 9am, review the week"
• "every weekday at 6, take out the dog"
• "first of the month, pay the cleaner"

A recurring reminder fires every cycle until you cancel it. To stop one: "stop the monday weekly review reminder".

A note on natural phrasing

You don't have to use the word "remind". These all work:

• "call mom tomorrow at 9"
• "need to text the landlord on friday"
• "don't let me forget the dentist at 2"

If your sentence has a future time and an action attached to it, the AI usually reads it as a reminder. If it gets it wrong (treats a casual mention as a reminder when you didn't want one), say "that wasn't a reminder, just a note" and it'll drop the scheduled nudge while keeping the text in your history.

Timezones

Relative times like "tomorrow at 9" resolve against your timezone, which the app picks up from your device. If you travel, the timezone follows you. See Timezones for the details, including how to schedule reminders in a zone other than your own.
