Reminder Description |
|
| |
Reminder is not an alternative to Dates, DateMan, More Info or any other Date/Call/Note/Names enhancer. It is meant to be used in conjunction with these apps.
The idea behind Reminder is that although the NewtonOS has many ways of gathering Personal and Contact information, there isnt a good overall way of being reminded of it.
Yes you can set alarms on specific meetings and events, but how about being reminded to buy a gift for a birthday? Or that you have an incomplete call to an important client. Or that if you dont pick up your dry-cleaning you will have nothing to wear?
Put simply Reminder is a nag. But a helpful nag. Reminder is fully configurable to allow the user to choose which reminders are neccessary. There are even three personas to choose from. Get your reminders in a fawning, neutral, or attitude laced tone.
Below is a list of what things will happen when:
Power On: If someones birthday is today you will be reminded once, otherwise you will get a pleasant greeting. You will be reminded of any meetings for the day.
Incomplete Call: Reminder will ask if you want a ToDo made to remind you. Other wise Reminder will prompt you during the reminder interval.
Reminder Interval (user defined from 2 minutes to 4 hours): Any calls that are not marked Call Completed will be shown. Pending birthdays are shown. You have the opportunity to make a To Do to remind you to buy a gift. Incomplete To Dos are shown. |
