Task reminders

You can add a reminder to any task. Reminders are personal — only you can see them, even on shared boards.

How to set a reminder

In the task window, in the Reminders section, click Add reminder and choose a type:

• Before the deadline — e.g. 5 minutes, 2 hours or 1 day before the task starts. Click a ready-made option (5 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 hour, 1 day) or enter your own time. It needs a deadline; for an all-day task we count from 8:00 AM,
• On a chosen date and time — a specific date and time, regardless of the task’s deadline,
• one task can have up to 10 reminders. When the task’s deadline changes, “before the deadline” reminders recalculate automatically.

The bell inside the app

At the top of the app (in the top bar on a phone, in the menu on a computer) there is a bell icon with the number of unread notifications — 1, 2, … 9 and “9+”. Click it to open the list; selecting a notification takes you to the task’s board, and Mark all as read clears the counter. The bell always works and needs no permission.

Notifications on your phone and computer

To get a reminder as a system notification — even when the browser is closed — turn it on in Account → Notifications (or with the button under the reminders in the task window). Do it separately on each device:

• Android (Chrome, Edge, Firefox) — just allow notifications,
• iPhone and iPad (iOS 16.4 or newer) — first add the site to the Home Screen: in Safari tap “Share” → “Add to Home Screen”, open Add My Task from that icon and only then turn on notifications,
• computer — notifications arrive while the browser is running (even in the background).
