  • It doesn’t send emails only notifications

    No place to configure an email address. Or am I missing something?

    You can use our web app to send yourself future emails! https://hifutureself.com/send-future-email

    I love this app! Use it everyday
  • Wouldn’t be without this app!

    Are use this app all the time to remind me of almost everything. It’s the best app I know of and so easy to use. I have recommended it to friends with no qualms at all. It’s a wonderful app.

    Thank you, Tina! So happy you’re enjoying it!
  • Native Reminders light

    This is a nice looking light version of Apple’s native Reminders app.
    Thank you for listing reminders in chronological order. This makes the app useful if you have more than a handful of reminders.
    Please consider adding iCloud sync and a search function. Since there is no Contacts integration please expand the recent list of GPS locations from 3 to 10. Also useful would be an option when entering a geofence for a delayed Notification of 5 minutes to an hour. For example, when you break the geofence you may still have to park or ride an elevator so you may get to your office 15 minutes after breaking the geofence. I used this feature on an old 32 bit app that I can no longer run. It was very useful.

    Thanks, Kplan23! All great suggestions. I’m so excited to add these features. Keep an eye open for updates over the next few months 😁
  • Like it so far

    Is there a way to have it day time only? ie: have hourly reminder during daytime hours?
  • Easy to use!

    I really love the layout of this app, it’s quick and easy to use. I have a small request if that’s possible. Sometimes I like to randomly scroll through the dates to leave future me an unexpected message. My problem is when I scroll, the app will automatically take me back to the present date. I adore the concept of sending your future self a message, and I think this app really delivers!

  • Excellent Single Purpose App

    And Now for iPad!

    Thank you to the developer for listening to my suggestion for an iPad version. Now works perfectly in landscape mode. This app does exactly what it says. Write yourself an email for a reminder sometime in the future. It will show up right when you need it.

    Updated update (yeah, I know): I was contacted by the developer who tells me that an update with iPad version + landscape mode is coming soon. Thank you.

    Review Update: I have completely stopped using this app because it will not work on an iPad in landscape mode.

    • Here’s a request to the developer (whom I have previously contacted via email on this issue). Please adapt this to iPad and landscape mode.

    There are a large number of people who would use this app if it would work in landscape mode. For any type of writing or written communication I use an iPad almost exclusively. I use a keyboard. I use something other than Hi Future Self that actually works.

    Previous review (was 5 stars):

    This app has been around for awhile, but now with and update. I have been using this for a long time. I often send email reminders to myself that arrive days, months, or years into the future. It saves me on anniversaries, or birthdays, or other distant events.

    Of course if you think that current politics will result in a destroyed planet you won't need this app.

  • Really nice, unique app

    ❤️ it
  • Still awesome!

    I’ve been using this app for years & I still love it. It’s a minimalist reminder app for those times when you don’t have time to fiddle with settings related to the thing you need to remember in the future. It just works!

    Thanks for all the recent updates! A few suggestions?? 1: Change the “Sent” tab to “Upcoming” or something like that. 2: Have the paper airplane icon in the upper right be there when you edit Received reminders - to set them again (it’s there but just not visually) 3: Add a “No sound” option? 😊
