Then that kind of defeats the object. Right now my calender does the job perfectly as it allows for numerous alerts before the event. Plus, if I wipe my phone my calender is synced to Google Calenders. Does notifyme back up my reminders?
i got it too and use it constantly and its a great app
but then it does have some limitation though, and loading up takes a little too much time to load up the notifications.
I agree with you on the loading times. A little too long for me. I started using Todo which is more inline with what I needed.
NotifyMe is a nice app though. Keeping it around till Todo gets push notifications.
I wrote Powerybase about this exact issue. They said an update is coming in the next 30 days that will allow advanced alerts along the lines of Remember the Milk.
e.g. Every weekday, every other day, etc.
Isn't that what the calendar is for?
If not, couldn't you set the alert for 30 minutes earlier and have the task name be "Leave for the Vet"?
Yeah, i love this app so much its earned a space on my homescreen. Great for making quick reminders for yourself for specific times in the future.
I had been following the creator, powerybase, for a while before it was released, and although i was caught out with an AM/PM bug in v1.0, v1.1 solved everything for me and is now easily up there with the messages app in terms of how often i use it.
Best £2.39 i have spend on the app store to date easily.

Yes. That's what the calender is for! But, isn't that with NotifyMe is for as well? For example, whats the point in being reminded about someones birthday on the day. Very hard to organise getting a card and/or birthday present in that time!
Then set a reminder two days before the calendar item. Or, do what I said earlier: Set an appointment for an earlier time and say something like "Get and send card to Sam for birthday".
.....Explain to me exactly what does it do that the calendar app cannot

This app sounds like a MAJOR scam to me. Explain to me exactly what does it do that the calendar app cannot
erm....
Thats why I'm regretting the purchase!

download the free version and try it out
...or one could use Alarm Clock and label it accordingly.
Agreed. I use my alarm clock for reminders more often than my calendar. AND I get to set the alert to whatever tone I choose.
