About this app

What is Simplest Reminder?
It is the easiest to use reminder application in the whole Google Play Store.

What does it do?
Simplest Reminder allows you to quickly set a single or recurring reminder in as few steps as possible. When the time comes your phone or tablet will remind you about your task.

What features does it have?
- No advertisement
- Dark Theme
- Popup Dialog
- LED light notifications
- Recurring reminders. Choose between daily, weekly, monthly, annually, weekdays(Mon-Fri), weekends(Sat-Sun),
- Custom recurrence interval such as 2 hours, 3 days or 5 weeks etc to suit the needs of your busy schedule
- Custom Snooze duration
- Import and Export. This can be used as a backup or to transfer reminders to the Pro version or to another device.
- Option to either delete or deactivate reminder on notification swipe
- New Time and Date Pickers inspired by Google Calendar's pickers
- Self-repeating reminders. Reminder will repeat itself every 10 minutes so you don't miss it. This can be enabled or changed in Settings
- Single occurrence reminders can be deactivated and reused at later time
- Swipe notification away to dismiss recurring reminder

What makes it better than other reminder apps?
Creating a reminder only takes few seconds, and you do not have to customize tens of options for each reminder. In contrast to other reminder applications mine does not require almost any permissions, because I respect your privacy. (The only permission needed is access to storage so you can export and import reminders)

Is it easy to use?
The main goal of this application is simplicity. It allows you to create a simple reminder in as few steps as possible. At the minimum you need to provide time and press OK button. That's all. Optionally you can add description, date and recurrence but they are not required.

Can I customize anything?
Absolutely! You can choose a theme, specify notification sound, vibration, and vibration pattern. You can also enable/disable popup dialog, LED light, and swipe to delete/deactivate a reminder. You can also change intervals for snooze and self-repeating reminders.

It all sounds great but can I try it for free first?
Yes you can. I have free version available in the Play store under the name: Simplest Reminder

Ratings and reviews

Have loved this app for years. The last update caused the reminders not to go off if the phone has been asleep for a few hours. The developer was kind enough to contact me and explain the new Google requirements that unfortunately effect how notifications are delivered. If you turn battery optimization off it works great. Grateful that the developer has a button for that in settings for easy access. Battery usage stats, says the app uses 0% in background, even with optimization off.

I really like this app but I really wish it also had the ability to select common reminder timers at the click of a button (e.g - 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, 30 min, 60 min etc.) instead of having to set the reminder time using clock hours and minutes. It would also be nice to have the ability to save pre-set reminder subjects like "meeting", "phone call", "medicine", etc. and then be able to select one with a button click instead of having to type out the reminder subject.

This a very simple reminder app. Using it frees me from cluttering my calendar. I use it as a medication reminder. My only suggestion would be able to have different sounds for different reminders. I take one med at a certain time and another later. Different sounds would allow me to differentiate. All in all, a great app.

What's new

Fixed bug from previous release where reminders were repeated until attended even if the settings wasn't enabled.
