  • Simple yet awesome

    Love this app, especially when I can guess correctly the time to remind myself things, i got great satisfaction yesterday after setting a reminder to buy teabags in th morning and received it later as I entered m car after Uni! Awesome!

    Is it possible to send delayed msgs to other mobs? Birthdays etc? Jus a suggestion!

    Ps to the person that seems amazed it works without signal/ wifi etc, it's like a calendar function appearing in SMS format, it doesn't actually send a msg just reminds u as a calendar entry would but much simpler to use!

  • Great complement to calendar

    I use this on my iPod Touch. The messages pop up on the 'home screen' as soon as I turn on the Touch, so in case I forget to check my calendar I still get a reminder! LOVE this app.
    For those complaining about non-included features (ability to edit, delete, repeat) upgrade for the low price of $.99 ... (though the free version seems sufficient for me right now)

  • VERY HELPFUL!!

    I find that this is better than some of the to-do lists apps that I've downloaded (which is a lot) because it actually notifies you in an ingenious text format, with sound and everything. This is very helpful for those that forget and don't like the generic to-do lists with just a red number and not alerting you.

  • I am so grateful for this app!

    I use this to send myself words of encouragement I think I might need in some future time. Would be good for quick task reminders too. It's extremely easy and fast to use. Sweet little simple free app everyone should have.

    Edit: I always forget that I sent a message and then when I get that pop-up affirmation it really is right when I need it!

  • Can only edit or delete messages if you go Pro

    You can only edit or delete messages if you buy the Pro version. Of course they don't tell you this up front. What do people do first when they get this app, do a test message. They don't care what time, just spin the dial and let the time fall where it may even if it is in the middle of the night, after all it is just a test and you want to see how the message is set up, then delete it and set up a proper message.

    What next, delete the app and reinstall right? Wrong, though you are told the app and all its data will be deleted. After reinstalling the app, your test message is still there.

    Unfortunately I cannot rate an app -5 stars. You're better off using Google Calendar and syncing it with your device. it's free like this app but you also immediately have access to the Pro features which this app does not have.

  • Can't delete messages ***but will be able to after v1.2!***

    *** Update ***

    Messages will be delete-able (and edit-able) beyond version 1.2! Good app!

    *** End Update ***

    Messages cannot be deleted.

    If you make a message and no longer need to see it, tough.

    Surprisingly, I found that the simple act of writing a To Do message to my future self encouraged me to do whatever it is. It would be nice to be able to cancel future delivery and delete the message (especially if it's related to a girlfriend's birthday!!! She'll find what you're getting her!)

  • Best thing ever!

    This is without question the greatest app on iTunes. I just wish I could buy the creator a nice cold Ninkasi beer (greatest beer ever, FYI). Seriously, this thing has helped me remember birthdays, anniversaries, and even the day that I have off work. Great work "DB". I hope you become a millionaire off this!

  • Surprisingly useful!

    At first I found this app amusing, but it's actually incredibly useful, and I find my self using it all the time! My only recommendation is to replace the somewhat plain icon. I love the simplicity of the interface!
  • Amazing

    I have no idea how this works, but its great.

    I had push and notifications turned off for ALL apps, wifi turned off, 3G turned off, no calendar entries athe app closed and removed from my task bar and to top it all off, place the phone in airplane mode, yet still it managed to notified me?

    How on earth is that lol ?

    Its fantastic and will be in the top 10 soon enough, however the if the dev could just add a basic list that we can store our sent notifications (like "Put Things Off") then i beleive this will be one fo the best apps ive come accross. If the Guys from "Put Things off" and these guys got together and also added Google Syncing (like the built in Notes App) then it would easily be worth £2.99

    Someome else will probably knock something up now that this has been done but if the dev is listening, please get out the ability to leave todos/notes like "put things off" sync to google and get a price on this and get it out there as this is probably one of the best uses of the iphone i have yet seen. Great functionality but lacks the features, "Put things off" has great features but lacks functionality... Get your heads together and your onto a winner.

    Hope you keep this updated and ohh, please could you change the colurs to the default black or grey as it looks a little weird with those colours.

    See you in the top 10 very soon.

  • Perfect

    I agree with Karmaworld. A perfect little app. I just filled two prescriptions that I've been forgetting to do for a week. This is what having an iPhone is all about. Well done!
