## What is Later?

Later lets you schedule reminders in natural way by choosing times like this evening, tomorrow morning or next week. 

Download Later for Mac to sync your reminders and even add reminders that appear when you're back on your Mac. 

“On-the-go users don’t want to fill out sign-up forms, watch tutorials or face a steep learning curve just to use what should be a basic utility. Later gets that, by taking you right to the experience. 

It takes only a few seconds to get going. In fact, the download of the app itself takes longer than creating your first reminder.”
-Tech Crunch

“Later sets out to do one thing really well. There are almost no buttons or settings to get lost in. It's just a few taps and you're done. The UI is clean and simple.” 
-Arctic Startup

5-stars by chrisgscott: 

"This is exactly what I needed. No feature bloat, no bells and whistles, just one tap to set a "don't forget to do this" then one more tap to choose when to be reminded. No more late night emails to myself! Thank you, it's already earned a spot in the tray on my iPhone."

Key benefits:

- Share extension
- Today's widget

### 3/5 — Abandoned?

*2023-08-13, version 1.4*

I’ve had this app 7 years. It’s always worked well but there was room for improvement. 
It always lacked a search function which is necessary if you have more than 25 reminders. I start each reminder with an emoji so I can more easily group or find what I’m looking for. 
Some of the functions are confusing as the app doesn’t understand the difference between today’s and tomorrow’s afternoon or evening very well. 
Lately syncing between devices has been hit and miss. 
4 years since an update so I assume the app has been abandoned. I’ve duplicated my list in another app just in case Later stops working or vanishes from the App Store when I’m ready to replace my iPhone.

### 1/5 — Not user friendly

*2022-07-01, version 1.4*

Where do you choose the time?  Can you add notes? Reoccurring. There is not a lot to this app

### 5/5 — Such a genius ideas

*2022-01-12, version 1.4*

It's absolutely perfect exactly what I needed.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2020-09-11, version 1.4*

So simple and thats why it makes me want to use it. The ONLY reminders app i want to use. Thanks!

### 4/5 — Dark mode?

*2019-01-17, version 1.4*

Give me dark mode and I’m set

### 5/5 — From good to great

*2018-10-24, version 1.4*

With the latest update, this streamlined reminder app reaches its potential.  Highly practical and useable.

### 5/5 — So far, so good

*2018-10-11, version 1.3.1*

The simplicity and practicality is impressive! I even included this app on my blog on app review. 👌

### 5/5 — So useful!

*2018-09-21, version 1.3.1*

It’s so simple, hands down best To-Do list/reminders app mixed into one. It really makes me feel like I’m on top of things!

### 4/5 — Kills all other reminder apps

*2018-04-22, version 1.3.1*

Super simple, options are great. If we could get a reoccurring setting, competition would be eliminated

### 2/5 — I was loving it, but now it crashes way too often

*2018-02-11, version 1.3.1*

I wrote a rave review, but the crash and need to re-install cycle has become worse and worse, to the point where I am looking for alternatives. Nothing that I like as much so far, but Later has become virtually useless. Very sad, as it is otherwise close to perfect for my needs. Elegant and efficient when it works.
