I like the simplicity of this (reminiscent of @thetylerhayes' Slapshot) although I've found Siri very useful for these ad-hoc reminders. You can set reminders for specific times, X hours from now, etc. without typing a word.
@rrhoover@raulriera Siri is legit. I use Siri 5x daily, and Slapshot 1-3x daily. Mostly because before iOS 8 I really wanted to be able to Slapshot from the lock screen because having to unlock my phone was too many steps and the point of Snapshot is to be brutally simple. So I always used Siri.
But now iOS 8 has Notification Center widgets! *hint*
@rrhoover thanks for the Siri tip! The app looks awesome, but the .99 hurdle is too large for something that doesn't feel like a huge pain point currently. I wonder if they will consider a freemium model in the future.
I've been using later very regularly for the past several months. It's super useful. Two small suggestions:
- enable autocorrect when typing a reminder. This app has made me realize how much I rely on it. Without it about half my words have a typo
- add a mailbox style time section for immediate reminders in addition to the more general / long-term later, tonight, tomorrow, etc. there are plenty of times I'd love to be reminded of something in 15, 30, 60 min after i finish up a meeting or get back from lunch
I know it's kind of odd, but I use Slack to remind me of stuff. Sends me both a push notification to my phone and an email using the "/remind me in 2 days to call joe"
Here are some other minimum requirements I'd suggest for any reminders app:
-desktop/web access
-utilize iOS Reminders database (read/write)
-customizable default snooze windows (30min etc)
- image/url attachments
Was just talking to my fiancé about my memory yesterday. I just downloaded this app. Love the fact that it's dead simple and focuses on doing one thing well. Thank you to the creators!
