It tells you when the time comes

Give a reminder a time and your phone and tablet send a notification at that time, even when the app is closed. On a computer you are alerted while the app is open. Reminders you write in pen on the phone and tablet are read too, and appear in the notification as text.

They can repeat every day, week, month or year. The app sees the events in your Google Calendar and you pick the ones you want to add; nothing is added without your approval. The next three reminders sit on the home page.
