Maintenance is the one kind of task nothing reminds you about. There is no inbox for a water purifier filter, no notification when the AC is six months overdue, and no warning before an insurance renewal lapses. Set each date once in plain words and the nag arrives on WhatsApp, months later, the day it matters. Say it as "every 6 months", "every year on 15 March" or a one-off date, and reply "done" when the technician leaves.
Try it free on WhatsAppThe AC dies in the first week of summer, the purifier tastes off, the car starts making a sound. Every one of those had a service date you were supposed to act on months earlier.
Bills email you. Meetings ping you. Maintenance has no sender, so it lives entirely in your memory, which is exactly where it goes missing.
Insurance, emissions certificates, extended warranties and annual service contracts all have a date after which the cheap version is gone and the expensive version is your only option.
Reminders were just the door. Behind it: tasks, notes, briefings and more, all by plain texting. Every card links to a full demo.
"Remind me every 6 months to get the car serviced" repeats on its own, roughly every 182 days, until you cancel it. For dates that are genuinely calendar-fixed, like an insurance renewal or an emissions test, say the date instead: "every year on 15 March". Monthly jobs such as cleaning AC filters take "the 1st of every month". Use whatever interval your manual, your service contract or your technician actually recommends, because the right number is different for a diesel car in Delhi and a hybrid in Devon.
Remind me every 6 months to get the car servicedNobody remembers the AMC number, the purifier model, the last odometer reading or which technician actually turned up. Save each one the moment you have it and ask for it when the reminder fires: "note the purifier filter was changed on 12 Sep, next one due in six months". It takes four seconds and saves the twenty minutes you otherwise spend looking through old photos of bills.
note the AC service contract runs to March, filters cleaned 2 OctPlenty of maintenance has no fixed day: reseal the bathroom, get the terrace waterproofed before the monsoon, replace the smoke alarm battery, deal with the tap that drips. "todo reseal the bathroom #house" sits on the list until it is done instead of evaporating, and tags keep the house, the car and the office separate.

Create a group, add your partner, your caretaker or your building manager with an alias, and "remind @Ravi on Saturday at 10am to get the water tank cleaned" goes to their WhatsApp with nothing for them to install. You are told when they reply done, or told if nobody has replied within the hour.
remind @Ravi on Saturday at 10am to get the water tank cleanedMaintenance dates are easy to miss even when they are set, because they sit months away and then arrive on an ordinary Tuesday. One morning message lists the reminders due today and any to-dos that are overdue. For a service that needs booking, set a second reminder a week before: "Remind me on 8 March to book the car service".

Yes. "Remind me every 6 months to get the car serviced" repeats by itself until you cancel it. Be aware of what that means literally: a six-month interval repeats roughly every 182 days, so it drifts a little against the calendar over several years. If a date must stay exact, such as an insurance renewal or an emissions certificate, set it as a yearly reminder on that date instead: "Remind me every year on 15 March to renew the car insurance".
The ones where being late costs money rather than comfort: insurance and warranty renewals, emissions or roadworthiness certificates, and any annual service contract. After those, the recurring jobs that quietly shorten the life of the thing: car service, AC servicing before summer, water purifier filters, water tank cleaning, pest control, chimney and gutter clearing. Use the interval your own manual or service contract gives, not a number from the internet.
Yes, through group reminders. Create a group, add them with an alias, and "remind @Ravi on Saturday at 10am to get the water tank cleaned" is delivered to their WhatsApp. They need nothing installed, you are told when they reply done, and you are told if there has been no reply an hour after it fired. Both people need their own trial or plan, because the reminder is a real message to a real number.
