Quick-entry for Apple Reminders: Remind Me Faster gets tasks into Apple Reminders the moment they cross your mind. Your most-used times, locations, and lists are available with a couple of taps so nothing slows your flow. It’s also available on your Lock Screen, control center, and share sheet.
There's no need to switch task managers; Remind Me Faster is a companion to the Reminders app that's already on your device. Reminders you add can be viewed in the built-in Reminders app.
• Use natural language to set times, locations, priority, or lists — e.g. “Reply to Mike tomorrow 10am”, “Check out the new album leaving work”
• Set common time or location alerts with one-tap presets
• Quick-switch lists with gestures
• Set priority — ! !! !!!
• Lock Screen, Control Center, and Action Button launchers
• Share sheet, Shortcuts, and URL scheme
• Nudges to finish saving reminders
Remind Me Faster is indie-made, without tracking or ads. Most functionality is free, with some extras available as one-off purchases.
What’s New
Version 5.5.3
Remind Me Faster 5.5 brings significant Natural Language Input improvements: Lists, locations, priority, and smarter date detection.
Natural language input improvements:
• List detection — List names typed in the reminder title will trigger a thumb-reachable button to switch in one tap. Detects partial matches (first few characters) for long list names.
• Location detection — Any preset locations you’ve defined in settings will now be detected when typed in the reminder title. This triggers a thumb-reachable button to select the location. A preceding “arriving” or “leaving” is also detected. Detects partial matches (first few characters) for long location names.
• Date detection — Date & time modes can now auto-switch based on what’s typed: So “Tuesday 9am” will enable date & time mode, while “Tuesday” will only set a date. Additionally, if 9am has already passed, typing 9am will now automatically select tomorrow (this was previously a setting, which has now been removed). “At ” or “on ” preceding times and dates are now also detected.
• Priority detection — Typing !, !!, or !!! in a reminder title automatically sets the corresponding priority.
• Any suggested lists, locations, or dates can now be accepted with a new keyboard shortcut: Shift+Cmd+Return
• Most new Natural Language Input features can be disabled if you prefer.
These improvements are available for free for anyone who’s already purchased the Natural Language Input feature.
Other improvements:
• Date & time mode toggle (in the bottom right) is now more clearly a toggle, with clearer iconography. Additionally, the selected date icon has a little flip animation when switching modes.
• Long-pressing on preset times now subtracts a day, much like long-pressing ‘+24h’.
• Selected date formatting now handles past dates in a friendlier way.
• Selected location icon now faces away when location is set to leaving. Tap the selected location for a silly little animation.
• Made list confirmation icon clearer in list picker
• Renamed the unsaved reminders live activity to “Reminder rescue”, and the dynamic island view now uses the new app icon glyph with the current list colour.
• Fixed a visual bug where opening the app on macOS would sometimes appear to not switch back to the correct list.
Ratings and Reviews
Beautiful App Design! Incredibly useful
I have lost count the amount of lists I’ve lost in the reminders app but this app changes everything and finally makes it useful! It’s so easy and quick to use, and now these reminders are suddenly the most useful thing on my phone. Save the task organisers for bigger projects, this app takes the crown for those little reminders that you need. I’ll never forget to buy milk on the way home again!
This app is exactly what a good app should be
I love this app. It is so simple to use, does exactly what it needs to, no fuss or thinking required. It’s perfect for me, a busy working mum who needs to write everything down and have reminders for everything or it would not get done. I use it multiple times a day, and rarely use the Apple one unless just to edit an existing reminder. I’ve been using it solidly for months now and cannot fault it. Great stuff.
Focused, simple, fabulous
I love how focused this app is. It does one job (add simple reminders (not fro based or repeating) and it does it very very well.
Is it a replacement for the Apple Reminder app? No. But that's missing the point. It's not supposed to be a replacement but an extension.
Siri (for all its quattuordecillions of flaws) will still be my primary method of adding reminders. But for every time that Siri is not a viable option, I'll definitely be reaching for Remind Me
