# Creating reminders
|
|
|
|
Reminders help you stay on top of your important notes. You can create one-time or recurring reminders with custom notification settings.
|
|
|
|
Free accounts can have up to 10 active reminders at a time. Essential raises the cap to 50, and Pro and Believer are unlimited — see [Plans & limits](/plans-and-limits). Deactivated reminders, and one-time reminders whose time has already passed, don't count towards the cap.
|
|
|
|

## Configuring recurring reminders <PlanTag plan="essential" />
|
|
|
|
::: info Recurring reminders are a paid feature
|
|
Recurring reminders can only be used if you are on a paid plan — Essential, Pro or Believer. See [Plans & limits](/plans-and-limits).
|
|
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
When you select **Repeat** mode, you can customize how often you want to be reminded:
|
|
|
|
- **Daily**: Get reminded every single day at your chosen time
|
|
- **Weekly**: Select specific days of the week (e.g., weekdays only)
|
|
- **Monthly**: Pick specific dates of the month
|
|
- **Yearly**: Choose the month and day for your yearly reminder
|
|
|
|
## Notification preferences
|
|
|
|
Choose how you want to be notified:
|
|
|
|
- **Silent**: Receive a notification without sound or vibration
|
|
- **Vibrate**: Get a notification with vibration
|
|
- **Urgent**: Receive a notification with sound and vibration
|
|
|
|
::: info
|
|
Reminders require notification permissions. You'll be asked to enable notifications when you create your first reminder.
|
|

|
|
## Editing or viewing reminders
|
|
|
|
To edit an existing reminder, go to `{{reminders}}` screen from the side menu and select the reminder you want to edit. You can change all reminder settings, including the date, time, and recurrence pattern.
|
|
|
|
To see all reminders attached to a note, open the note properties go to `{{reminders}}`. This will show you a list of all reminders associated with that note.
|
|
|
|
## Activate or deactivate a reminder
|
|
|
|
Deactivating a reminder stops it from notifying you without deleting it, so you can turn it back on later. A deactivated reminder is labelled `{{disabled}}` in the reminders list and stops counting towards your active reminder cap.
|
|
|
|
:::tabs key:platform
|
|
== Desktop/Web
|
|
|
|
1. Go to the `{{reminders}}` screen from the side menu.
|
|
2. Right click the reminder.
|
|
3. Click `{{deactivate}}` to switch it off, or `{{activate}}` to switch it back on.
|
|
|
|
== Mobile
|
|
|
|
1. Go to the `{{reminders}}` screen from the side menu.
|
|
2. Tap the  button on the reminder.
|
|
3. Tap `{{turnOffReminder}}` to switch it off, or `{{turnOnReminder}}` to switch it back on.
|
|

## Snooze a reminder
|
|
|
|
When a reminder fires you can push it back instead of dismissing it.
|
|
|
|
:::tabs key:platform
|
|
== Desktop/Web
|
|
|
|
1. Click the reminder notification. The reminder preview opens.
|
|
2. Under `{{remindMeIn}}`, click `5 minutes`, `10 minutes`, `15 minutes` or `1 hour`.
|
|
|
|
The reminder fires again after the interval you picked.
|
|
|
|
== Mobile
|
|
|
|
1. Expand the reminder notification in your notification shade.
|
|
2. Tap the snooze action on it — `Remind in 5 min` on Android, `Remind me in 5 min` on iOS. Both labels show your default snooze time.
|
|
|
|
The action uses your default snooze time, which is 5 minutes until you change it. Recurring reminders also get a `{{disable}}` action on the notification, which deactivates the reminder.
|
|
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
### Change the default snooze time _(mobile)_
|
|
|
|
1. Go to `{{settings}}` > `{{productivity}}` > `{{reminders}}`.
|
|
2. Tap `{{defaultSnoozeTime}}` and enter the number of minutes.
|
|
|
|
The default is `5` minutes. This is the interval the snooze button on a reminder notification uses.
|
|
|
|
### Change the reminder notification sound _(Android only)_
|
|
|
|
1. Go to `{{settings}}` > `{{productivity}}` > `{{reminders}}`.
|
|
2. Tap `{{changeNotificationSound}}`.
|
|
|
|
On Android 8 and above this opens the system notification channel settings for Notesnook's urgent reminder channel, where the sound is set. On older Android versions you pick the sound from a list inside the app. There is no sound setting on iOS.
|
|
|
|
## Permanent reminders <PlanTag plan="essential" note="Android only"/>
|
|
|
|
**Permanent reminders** are available only on Android devices. Unlike one-time or recurring reminders, permanent reminders persist every day and won't disappear after triggering. This is useful for important daily tasks or notes you want constant access to.
