Five minutes here and you'll get more out of it than most people ever do.
1. First things first: install it & turn on notifications
Remindr is an app you install straight from the website — no app store needed.
iPhone: open remindrapp.us in Safari → tap the Share button
→ Add to Home Screen. Open Remindr from your Home Screen from then on.
Android / desktop Chrome or Edge: the app offers an Install
button — one tap.
Then go to Profile → Settings → Notifications → Enable notifications. This is
the single most important step: it's how reminders reach you when the app is closed.
📌 Reminders will always appear in the app either way — but installed + notifications
on is what makes Remindr tap you on the shoulder.
2. Feed the brain
Everything in Remindr starts with capture. Three ways, all on the main screen:
🎙️ Talk. Tap the mic and say it like you'd tell a person: "Did a castor-oil
pack today, remind me to do it again in four days." The words are transcribed, filed into your
brain, and if you asked for a reminder, it lands on your calendar too.
📷 Snap. Tap + → photo: pill bottles, receipts, shipping
labels, business cards, the sticky note on the fridge, the serial number on the water heater. The
AI reads what's in the image and files the facts.
📋 Paste. Memory tab → paste anything — a text thread with the plumber, an
email, notes. On Android you can even share straight into Remindr from other apps.
💡 Don't organize anything. No folders, no tags. Capture and forget — retrieval is
the AI's job, not yours.
3. Ask like a person
The Ask bar is the payoff. Type or tap Speak and ask naturally:
"What dose did Dr. Joe put me on, and when did it change?"
"When did the pool guy last come and what did he say about the filter?"
"What's the tracking number for the boots?"
"How much did the mechanic quote for the brakes?"
Answers come with the date and a link to the original source — the actual photo, memo, or thread
it learned from. It answers only from your stored life, never the internet.
4. Reminders that actually reach you
Create them three ways: the Reminders tab form, the + button
(say it or type it — "pick up the car tomorrow at 3"), or just ask for one while recording
a memo. Every reminder has:
A channel — how it reaches you:
In app — banner + notification (free, unlimited)
Email — to your inbox (free, unlimited)
Text — a text message to your verified phone (10/mo free, 100 on Plus, 1,000 on Premium)
Call me — Premium: your phone rings and a voice speaks the reminder; if
you miss it, it waits for the beep and leaves it on voicemail. For the ones that matter.
📱 For texts and calls: add your mobile in Profile, tick the consent
box, then tap "Text me a verification code" — one 6-digit code and you're set.
Missed something? The 🔔 bell at the top collects every reminder that fired and
hasn't been acknowledged. The 💤 icon means quiet hours are silencing notifications
— tap it to turn them off. The Calendar tab shows everything on a month grid — tap
any day to view or edit.
5. Workspaces & the Vault (Premium)
Workspaces are separate rooms in one account — each with its own brain, own memories, own
reminders. Nothing crosses between them. Everyone starts with Personal;
Premium adds up to five, e.g. Work — and the 🔒 Remindr Vault:
a zero-knowledge space encrypted with a key derived from your PIN, which is never stored.
Locked, it's unreadable to everyone — including Remindr itself — and it re-locks after 30 minutes.
⚠️ Choose a PIN you'll remember: a forgotten Vault PIN means its contents are unrecoverable, by anyone. Switch with
the chip at the top. You can also invite teammates (Plus: 1, Premium: 5) into a shared workspace —
a partner, an assistant — while the Vault stays yours alone.
6. Import your message history (Premium)
Years of texts hold years of facts. Memory tab → Import lets you pull in exported
WhatsApp chats, SMS backups, or — with the PC helper — a chosen conversation (or
all of them) straight out of your iPhone backup on a Windows PC. Then ask questions across all of it:
"what did the doctor say about the dosage back in 2021?"
7. Real-life playbook — ideas to steal
Health: photograph every prescription label; voice-log symptoms and treatments;
set recurring med reminders as calls. Ask: "when did I start the new dose?"
Car: snap every service receipt. Ask: "when was my last oil change?" Set a
yearly registration reminder.
Home: photograph appliance serial numbers, warranties, filter sizes, paint
codes. Ask from the store aisle: "what size is the furnace filter?"
Kids: log shoe sizes, teachers, allergies; recurring reminders for practice
schedules and picture day.
Money: snap receipts for anything you might return; set reminders for the last
day of return windows and free-trial endings.
Work (in a Work workspace): voice-memo every commitment you make in the
hallway; ask at day's end "what did I promise today?"
Caregiving: keep a parent's medications, doctors, and appointments in a
dedicated workspace; share it with a sibling as a teammate.
People: after a conversation, voice-log what matters — "Mike's daughter starts
college in September." Ask before you see them again.
8. Good to know
Timezone: set in Settings so "tomorrow at 3" means your 3.
Google Calendar: mirror dated reminders into your calendar (Settings).
Daily digest: one summary email each morning instead of drips (Settings).
Privacy: your brain is yours alone — no tracking, nothing sold, and the AI
never mixes accounts. The policy is short and honest.
