Habits
Habit reminders
A habit can nudge you with a push notification at the times you pick. It only comes on days the habit is due and only if you haven’t checked in yet, so a done habit stays quiet.
When to use it
- A morning habit you forget once the day gets busy.
- Something with a deadline in the day, like taking a pill with dinner.
- An important habit you want a few nudges for, with Constant reminder on.
Before you start
Notifications have to be allowed on the device that should get them.
Phone
- On an iPhone, open Tagged from its home-screen icon. Reminders don’t reach a Safari tab. See Getting started.
- Open the Menu tab, then Settings, then Notifications, and turn on Daily alert. That’s what asks the phone for permission and signs it up for notifications.
- Tap Send a test now to check it arrives.
Computer
- Click your picture on the app bar, then Settings, then Notifications.
- Turn on Daily alert and allow notifications when the browser asks.
- Click Send a test now to check it arrives.
Note: Turning on Daily alert also sends one short note a day with what’s due or late. You can set its Time in the same place.
Add reminders to a habit
- Open Habits and pick the habit.
- Tap ••• next to its name, then Edit.
- Next to Reminders, tap +. A time box appears (7:00 AM for the first one, noon for the next).
- Change the time. Tap + again for another, up to 10.
- Tap ✕ next to a time to remove it.
- Tap OK.
You can add reminders while creating a habit too, in the same Create habit window.
Keep reminding until it’s done
- In Edit habit, turn on Constant reminder.
- Tap OK.
After the first reminder time passes, Tagged sends another every 30 minutes until you check in. It stops at 9 PM.
What a reminder looks like
The notification is titled Habit with the habit’s icon and name. Tap it to open that habit in Tagged, where you can check in.
Note: Reminder times follow Mountain time, and a reminder can arrive up to 5 minutes after the time you set.
Questions
Why didn’t my reminder come?
Check three things: the habit was due that day, you hadn’t checked in yet, and notifications are on for that device (try Send a test now). On an iPhone, Tagged must be the home-screen app.
Can a project remind me too?
Yes, with + Add Reminder in the When card. See When days and reminders.
