Life saver

I use this app to remember everything. Without it, I would forget.
So simple to send yourself a future reminder text.

Convenient

I use this all the time. It’s super easy to set daily reminders, one time reminders, etc. I’m rather absent minded, so being able to remind myself in the morning of something I think of late at night as easily as shooting a text is very helpful.

I like how the extra features are implemented. If you don’t need the excellent side features this app provides they really don’t clutter up the app or get in your way.

Everything(that I use regularly on this app) is clean and simple. Highly recommend this even over other built in reminder apps.

Thank you! I'm so glad you're enjoying HiFutureSelf!

Seriously helpful app

This is one I've used for years. Terrific for making sure you don't miss appointments or whatever, if you're not someone who looks at a calendar every day. Even cooler: I wasn't entirely content with the date selection wheels, and mentioned in a review that a calendar selection option would be helpful for setting a reminder for, like, months from now. The developer FIXED IT!! It's way easier to set a future date/time now. I'm really tickled.

Just grab this. You won't regret it.

Update: Pretty sure I wrote this review years ago. I STILL use this app all the time.

Thank you so much for using HiFutureSelf! This was really great feedback. As of version 2.5.0 you can now use the calendar selector in addition to the wheel. Just tap the selected blue clock icon, and the calendar will appear. Make sure to update to the latest version in the App Store. If it works for you, please update this review! It would help a ton!

Great app with just one problem

I like the simplicity and functionality of this app. It serves its intended purpose and I would like to rely on it. However, I have run into a problem with it. After I get a notification, I have to be careful to not accidentally enter the compose function. A common occurrence is for me to get a banner notification at the top of the screen, I swipe up to dismiss it and then later I discover the app isn’t working. I open it and see that I have somehow unintentionally entered the compose function, and as a result the app has stopped sending notifications. It would be great that either it is made less likely that I accidentally enter the compose function, or if the app continues to work even though I am in the compose function, or both. Would love to give 5 stars but I just can’t fully rely on the app working 100% no matter what

Thank you so much for this detailed note. I’d love to fix this issue, could you email me at david@hifutureself.com. What version of iOS are using? And what do you mean by unintentionally entered the compose function (screenshots would be so helpful) let’s get this fixed for you!

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.

everything deleted

I had a bunch of old messages on here and a bunch of new ones to come for future days, some months and years from now, and now they’re all suddenly gone. About a week ago I got a notification for one my messages and I opened it and could only see a little of it. I closed the app and reopened it to find absolutely everything gone.

I didn’t have an insane amount of messages but definitely quite a few. Some were years old that I left just on there because I didn’t think they would get deleted. Now it’s gone.

I admit, this app was good. I liked how it was simple, though I felt it could have had some really cool yet simple features. I just regret not saving everything on something separate. Other than this unfortunate situation, a good app.

Oh that's awful! 2 stars deserved. Sorry this happened! I haven't seen this before. I would love to help, and maybe get those messages back. Since November of last year they are synced to iCloud, so they should be backed up if you've been using the app for a while. Also, if the system crashed for some reason, messages might get moved into the "Delivered" category. Take a look if they're there. Email me and hopefully we can figure this out! david@hifutureself.com

One of the longest running apps on my phone!

Amazing

This app really helped a lot

Amazing Reminder App

This app is amazing. The reminders are easy to setup and it just helps me organize my day. It would be amazing if voice reminders were added to this app in the future. Highly recommend.

Fantastic

I have been using this app for years it’s like my second memory, and great app support from the owner. Thank you

ADHD best friend

I personally need reminders or tasks that will continue to bug me as I tend to dismiss alerts all too easily- but I love this app! Perhaps an addition for a 30 min option for reminders alerts would be excellent!

I simply snooze it for the nagging option lol. This definitely helps with my ADHD when I forget things and the snooze work around help when I get too hyper-focused and have to remind myself of how long I’ve been in the zone.

I’ve honestly spent days downloading apps with promises to be close to your app feature. But yours is one of the best hands down because it keeps repeating the way I need it to. Your app won the list as well as another called insistent - Out of testing so many apps.

Thank you so much! A donation button would also be cool too.

You need this!

Super fun app and super useful! The little reminder notes spruce up your day unexpectedly. Fun, useful, cute and joyful! Love the secret notes one too where you actually even forget what you put but can’t check ahead of time to cheat 😅

Best app ever

I love this app meets all of my check boxes and work better than I expected, great work developers, keep making apps better. :)

ADHD saver

I’ve been using this app for as long as it has existed and thanks to its subtle text-like reminders it’s very easy and simple to set reminders as well as snoozing or rescheduling. Because I have ADHD this app has really made sure I haven’t missed important things in my life! The features of regular scheduling like weekly or monthly reminders adds to easy life of reminder setting.

Great, simple app!

Just found this app; super useful. Would be even better if it would display notifications on Apple Watch.

wonderful app

this app is so simple but it’s so useful to write down my late night thoughts and get them back in the morning

Wow

What a useful genius app. I foresee great things in my future thanks to this.
