Great Ap

I love Get Reminded it’s been a god send
I have all my bills that need to be paid on it
It starts reminding you 45 days beforehand which I think it is good it gives you the opportunity to then be ready when the bill actually arrives
Highly recommend

Many many thanks Nic for the 5 star rating and complimentary review.

Absolutely love this !!!

Such a great app for organising and handling our assets !!! Just one thing, I see the weekly/fortnightly options on there. But is it possible if you could add like a button for it to repeat weekly ? Without it having an expiry date ? I think that would be the only flaw, instead of having to create them over again ! Also notifications a day before or a few days before to remind of the payment etc. Bu the way this app is soo good ! Definitely recommend though !

Needs improvement

I’m just getting started with the app. I am finding it difficult to really get this customized.

There is no option for weekly or fortnightly payments as this is essential when inputting bills. Also be great to have the ability to add a billing provider as its not bringing up some of the most common companies.

It would also be great to be able to edit a particular provider in the settings for example RACV as it shows NRMA but I live in Victoria.

Also the ability to add the website for quick link to the billers website to get more quotes at renewal.

It’s a great app but I feel these few improvements would make it better

Hi Wendy, Thanks for the positive comments and good feedback that helps us understand where people are having difficulty setting up their reminders. To answer your specific concerns: - Reminders for weekly or fortnightly payments are set up under the 'Bills' category. - You are correct RACV was missing from the insurers list & it has been added (just close/reopen app to view the refreshed list). - In future we'll be adding links to many offers from related service providers. Adding your existing biller website link is practical & we suggest do that in the Description field. We appreciate your support and saying it's a great app, and we are striving to make it even better. For more advice or to get answers to more queries pls email us at gethelp@getreminded.com. Thanks, Tim, co-founder.

Good APP

Quite versatile but could be greatly improved eg buying an item with a deposit followed by a final payment on delivery thereof eg buying a motor vehicle by way of a deposit then remainder to be paid upon delivery ( eg 12 months later nowadays)!

Categories such as MOTORING, HOUSEHOLD, IT, INTERNET, HEALTH & more as standard options would greatly enhance usefulness.

Hi, glad to say that it’s easy to set up annual reminders. In fact the app was created specifically for that purpose. Give it a try! Thanks.

Great App!!!

I’ve never known how much I spend on my bills annually, but now I know how much I spend yearly, which is a great and scary at the same time.
P.S. It would be great if it had weekly and fortnightly in each category though. It’s a bit annoying.

Response from developer

Hi Nik, Wow 5 stars! Can't thank you enough for your encouragement and support. Setting up weekly/fortnightly (short term) reminders will be improved with in future updates. Cheers and thanks again, Tim, co-founder

Needs update

Idea is great, but lack of important period options like weekly / fortnightly. And one of the past reviews says it had same problem 3 years ago.

Response from developer

Hello. We did add a new category for short term reminders like weekly/fortnightly/monthly/etc. In the app go to the 'Bills' category and hopefully you'll find what you need there. If not pls email us to describe what specific options you want - gethelp@getreminded.com. Thanks Tim, co-founder

Response from developer

Hi 'Memories'. You are 100% correct. The whole point of the app is to get reminders to renew a recurring service, as a prompt to start shopping round for the best deal. You can start with the contextual advertising we display; e.g. insurance reminders ONLY show insurance offers. Also no personal information is required to use our app! If you'd like to learn more pls contact us by email on gethelp@getreminded.com. Thanks, Tim, co-founder.

Emails

The emails that are sent are annoying, repetitive and not helpful. If I have a quarterly bill, I want to see the quarterly amount to pay, not the annual amount. The Subject of the email should be the name of the provider making a payment to or why, not your reminder has expired. That doesn’t tell me anything. The app needs to be written for what would the user want to see, not what the developers think that a user would find helpful.
The text is too small, the information is not useful, this app needs work, did you conduct any UAT?

Response from developer

Hello. Thanks for the constructive feedback. Couple of tips: you can unsubscribe from the email reminders; the quarterly (or other time period) amount you enter will be shown in the reminder detail card. Agree the email could be more informative so that's on our list of improvements, and the app must be what users want to see. Thanks again. Tim, co-founder

Exactly the App I was looking for !

Have just downloaded this app as I use to use just my normal google calendar to keep track of my bills but this is so much cleaner and simpler to put in the one place. Easy to use and free too ! Would be great to add additional features such as cashflow planner but otherwise very happy with this app.

Hi KimPossibleAus. Thank you so much for the 5 stars and positive written review. We are striving to make GetReminded far more useful than a standard calendar app, and you have described that perfectly. The cashflow planner idea is one we'll add to the list of enhancements! Regards, Tim, co-founder, GetReminded.

Reminders disappearing

Does anyone else get this?? Every now and again, I have some of my bills/reminders get randomly deleted and then I forget to pay for something. I’m also having issues that when I set something as monthly, it says it’s next due in a year. Not very happy

Response from developer

Hi Shaz97. The problem you describe has been resolved. And for frequent reminders check out the 'Bills' category to get weekly/fortnightly/monthly/quarterly recurring alerts. Cheers, Tim co-founder
