Normally, the human mind stays preoccupied with a dozen thoughts. So, sometimes remembering small but important details becomes difficult. This can be your family member’s birthday or due date for car service. With our gadgets, we can easily set a reminder that will notify us to wish someone on their birthday or submit that project. You can also use the Todoist application to set reminders for your tasks.

In this guide, I have explained how to set a reminder for any task on Todoist. Also, I have put up the exact steps that you need to follow for setting a reminder on Android, iOS, Windows, and Mac devices. On the specified date, you will receive a push notification from Todoist. You may also receive an email notifying about your due task. Let’s see how to set that up.

Set Reminders in Todoist

This feature is only available to the Todoist users with premium and business accounts. This means free users will not be able to use it. On the due date and before 30 minutes of the task(as set by the user) Todoist will send the reminder.

The users can customize before how many minutes they want to get notified of their due task. It doesn’t have to 30 minutes. You can make it 1 hour or 15 minutes as per your wish. Also, you can decide whether you want to get a push notification on your smartphone/tablet or get a desktop notification. You can also prefer email notifications if you want.
