Reminders

Text it. Get it right on time.

Anything with a time, like an appointment, a bill or a call to make. Text it the way you'd say it, and TextTasker texts you back exactly when you need it. One-time or repeating, tomorrow or next year.

take my meds every day at 8am call mom sunday trash goes out tuesday nights car registration due march 3 water the plants every 3 days pick up kids at 3:15 weekdays cancel the free trial before the 20th rent on the 1st every month
Any time

Text it your way

No special format. Typos, shorthand and run-on thoughts are fine. You'll get the exact time back.

dentist thurs 3pm, remind me wed night
Got it! I'll text you Wed Oct 7 at 7:00 PM: "Dentist tomorrow at 3 PM"
Wed 7:00 PM

Get it right on time

A real text, not an app notification you'll swipe away. It lands where you already look.

TextTasker reminder: Dentist tomorrow at 3 PM
Reply SNOOZE to push it 30 min.
Not yet?

Reply SNOOZE

Nothing to do once it's handled. Need more time? SNOOZE gives you 30 minutes, or say "snooze 1 hour" or "move it to Friday."

snooze 1 hour
Snoozed. I'll remind you again at 8:00 PM.
Every week

Set it once

Pills, trash night, rent. Repeating reminders keep coming until you stop them.

take my meds every day at 8am
Got it! Every day, starting Thu Oct 8 at 8:00 AM: "Take my meds"

Got a schedule? Send a photo.

Snap your work schedule, a school calendar or an appointment card. TextTasker reads it and sets a reminder for each item, so you never type them in one by one.

To-do lists

Your to-do list, texted back to you.

Lots of people text themselves a to-do list. But a text from yourself never buzzes, so it sits there unread. Start a text to TextTasker with "To-do" instead, and your list shows up right when your day starts, then follows up until it's done.

"I used to text myself my list every night and leave it unread so I wouldn't forget. Half the time I still missed it. So I built TextTasker."
Founder, TextTasker

Tonight

Text your list

Start with "To-do." Separate things with commas or new lines. Send it before 6 PM for today, after 6 PM for tomorrow.

To-do: call the bank, pick up dry cleaning, email Dana, gym
Got it! Your to-do list for tomorrow has 4 things.
8:00 AM

Get it in the morning

A recap, and a fresh start

See how the day went. Anything not done moves to the top of tomorrow's list automatically.

Moving to tomorrow:

Reply done 4 if you finish tonight.
Nothing falls through

Unfinished items carry over on their own. If something has been sitting there for days, we'll offer to drop it.

Add as you go

Thought of something at lunch? Text "to-do: call Dave" and it joins today's list.

Your times, your day

8 AM, 1 PM and 6 PM are just the start. Text "start my to-do at 7" to change them.

Just a text

No app to open, no list to keep. Text LIST anytime to see where things stand.

Families & teams

Remind each other.

Start a group for your family or your team at work, and send reminders straight to their phones. They reply DONE, and you get a text when it's done. Your own reminders and to-do lists keep working just the same.

1

Start a group

Text FAMILY or TEAM, or pick it when you sign up. We'll text you an invite to forward.

FAMILY
Your family group is started! What name should your family see for you?

Forward the invite

Each person joins from their own phone, so nobody gets texts they didn't sign up for.

Prices are subject to change; if we change the price of your plan, we'll text you at least 30 days before it applies to you.

Privacy

Your messages don't stick around.

We read what you send, set your reminder, and delete your message. That's it.

Your text arrives

"uh remind me to call the dentist tmrw at 3, they said bring my insurance card"

We keep only the reminder

"Call the dentist," Friday at 3:00 PM. Nothing else.

Your message is deleted

uh remind me to call the dentist… Gone from our systems, photos included.

Reminders and to-do items are deleted once they're done. Text DELETE MY DATA to erase everything instantly. We never sell your information or share your number for marketing. Read the privacy policy

Questions

Good questions.

Do I need to download an app or create an account?

No. Your phone number is your account. Text us and you're set up. If you'd like, sign in with your phone number to see and change your reminders online. We text you a code.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. TextTasker works on any phone that can send and receive text messages: iPhone, Android, even a flip phone. No internet or data plan needed.

What about time zones and traveling?

When you sign up, we ask for your city so reminders arrive at your local time. If you travel, text TIMEZONE plus your new city, like "TIMEZONE Chicago." Repeating reminders then follow your new time zone (8 AM stays 8 AM where you are), and one-time reminders keep their original time. Text TIMEZONE anytime to check your setting, and remember to switch back when you get home.

How do I change or cancel a reminder?

Just text us, like "cancel the dentist reminder" or "move rent to the 2nd." Text LIST to see everything coming up. Texting only the single word CANCEL stops all messages, so say which reminder you mean.

How does the to-do list work?

Start a text with "To-do" and your list, like "To-do: call the bank, gym, email Dana," up to 40 words. Sent before 6 PM, it's for today; after that, it's for tomorrow. Your list arrives at 8 AM, we check in at 1 PM with anything that's left, and at 6 PM you get a recap. Reply "done 1 3" as you finish things. Anything not done moves to tomorrow's list automatically. You can change all three times, like "start my to-do at 7."

What's the difference between Individual and a group plan?

Individual is for you. A Family group (up to 4 people) or Team group (up to 10) lets you send reminders straight to the other people's phones; they reply DONE, and you get a text when they finish. Members get those reminders at no extra cost. For $4.99 a month, a member can upgrade to full access to set their own reminders, remind others in the group, and use to-do lists. For more than 10 people, we set up a custom group.

How do people join my group?

After you start a group, we text you an invite to forward. Each person texts JOIN plus your code from their own phone, or taps the link in the invite. Text INVITE anytime to get the invite again, or GROUP to see who's in it. We never text anyone who hasn't signed up themselves.

Can I set a reminder for someone who isn't in my group?

No. Reminders only go to people who joined your group from their own phone. If you mention someone who isn't in it, the reminder comes to you instead, so you can pass it on.

What happens when my free trial ends?

Two days before it ends, we'll text you a link to add a card. You won't be charged until the trial is over. If you don't add one, reminders keep coming for 3 more days, then they pause until you do. Text BILLING anytime to see your plan or change your card. Card payments are handled by Stripe; we never see your card number.

How do I upgrade or switch plans?

Text UPGRADE. On Individual, it switches you to a group plan so you can start a Family or Team. As a group member, it gets you full access. Text DOWNGRADE to switch back. Ending a group with other people in it needs a confirmation first.

Can I get a free month?

Yes. Text REFER and we'll text you your code with a message to forward to friends. For each friend who subscribes with your code, you get a free month: it comes off your next bill, or adds 30 days to your free trial if you're still on it. Friends just text your code to sign up.

How do I stop the texts?

Reply STOP at any time and you won't receive any more messages. Reply HELP for help.

Is my information private?

Yes. We don't keep your messages or photos. We read them to create your reminder, then delete them, keeping only the reminder itself while it's active. We never sell your information or share your number for marketing. Read the privacy policy.

Should I rely on TextTasker for emergencies or critical medical needs?

No. Text messages can occasionally be delayed by phone carriers. TextTasker is a helpful tool, but it shouldn't be your only reminder for anything where a missed message could cause serious harm.
