## What is Timely?

Most reminder apps nudge you once, then give up. Easy to miss, easy to ignore — and the thing doesn't get done.

Timely keeps reminding you until you actually mark it complete.

Persistent notifications
Pick how often you're reminded per task: every 5 minutes, every 15, every hour. Timely keeps nudging until it's done. Configure it task-by-task.

High priority alarms
For the things you truly can't miss, turn on High priority and Timely sounds a audible alarm at the due time, breaking through Silent and Focus modes, and staying on screen until you act on it.

Add reminders by voice
Just ask Siri: "Add a to-do in Timely." Say what you want, when, and how often — hands-free.

Natural language input
Type it like you'd say it. "Pick up dry cleaning Thursday at 5pm" or "Call mom every Sunday." Timely parses the date, time, and repeat settings automatically.

Flexible repeat scheduling
Daily, weekly, custom intervals, or complex patterns. Build the exact schedule you need.

Perfect for
Medications, water breaks, habits, chores, appointments, follow-ups — anything you can't afford to forget.

## Frequently asked questions about Timely

### What makes Timely different from other reminder apps?

Timely's key differentiator is its persistent notification system, which continues to remind you until a task is marked as complete. This contrasts with many apps that only notify you once.

### Can I set reminders for specific times and frequencies with Timely?

Yes, Timely allows you to configure reminder frequency per task, from every 5 minutes to hourly, and supports flexible repeat scheduling including daily, weekly, and custom intervals.

### Does Timely support voice input for adding reminders?

Yes, Timely integrates with Siri, allowing you to add to-dos hands-free by simply stating what you need to do, when, and how often.

### How does Timely handle natural language input for tasks?

You can type reminders conversationally, like 'Pick up dry cleaning Thursday at 5pm.' Timely automatically parses the date, time, and repeat settings from your input.

### What kind of tasks is Timely best suited for?

Timely is perfect for tasks that require consistent attention, such as taking medications, drinking water, maintaining habits, completing chores, attending appointments, or following up on important items.

### What are the subscription options for Timely Pro?

Timely offers a Pro subscription with monthly ($0.99/month) and yearly ($9.99/year) plans, providing access to advanced features beyond the free version.

### On which devices can I use Timely?

Timely is available on iPhone and iPad, offering a consistent experience across Apple's mobile platforms.

### How often is Timely updated?

The latest version of Timely is 1.310, and it was last updated on August 6, 2026. This indicates a relatively active development cycle for the application.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.320 — 2026-08-10

• High priority reminders — for anything you really can't miss, switch on High priority and Timely also sounds an alarm when it's due. Alarms break through Silent mode and Focus, and stay on screen until you act on them. Tap Done on the alarm to mark the reminder complete.
• No more nudges for things you've already done — a reminder you'd completed or rescheduled could keep pestering, and reopening the app didn't clear it. Completing something on one device also didn't always stop the reminders on your others. Timely now tidies up leftover reminders every time it syncs.
• Also fixed: the app icon badge no longer stays red when nothing is overdue, and snoozed reminders no longer show "(Snoozed)" in the notification.

### 1.310 — 2026-08-06

• Widgets — put your reminders on the Home Screen in three sizes, or on the Lock Screen. Tap the widget to jump straight to your list.
• Siri, Shortcuts, and Spotlight — ask Siri "What's on my Timely list" to hear what's left, and say "Add a to-do in Timely" to add one (it now goes straight to Timely instead of asking which app you meant). Reminders show up in Spotlight search, and you can build your own Shortcuts to add, find, update, snooze, or complete them automatically.
• More snooze options — press and hold a reminder notification and tap "More snooze options…" to pick any duration from 5 minutes to 1 day, not just your four favorites.
• Faster sync — changes you make on one device now show up on your others in moments.
• Timely Pro on all your devices — your subscription now follows your Apple Account, so Pro works everywhere you're signed in. (Not seeing it? Tap Restore Purchases in Settings.)
• Also fixed: repeating reminders handle awkward dates like "the 31st, every month" without getting stuck; snoozing from your list no longer nudges the next reminder off schedule; dictated dates like "in five days at 6 PM" no longer land on today and pester you immediately; very long titles no longer stretch the New Reminder screen; and the add button stays on screen when using Timely on a Mac.

### 1.300 — 2026-05-07

Add reminders with your voice! Just ask Siri to "Add a Timely reminder." When prompted, say what you want to be reminded about, including when and how often.

### 1.282 — 2026-05-05

- Fixed a bug with reminder snoozing behavior
- Made badge counts more accurate and reliable
- Fixed a bug where the input cursor would jump to the end of the line when editing reminder titles

### 1.281 — 2026-04-01

Added more options for longer snooze times.
Various bug fixes.
