Hi kiruthik,
Our Android app is able to issue reminder notifications directly on the device. The reminder will appear in the notification bar and, if you choose, will play a sound. You can configure the sound in the Reminders section of the app settings.

Hope this helps!

Hi ahguang,
The iPhone and iPad apps can also issue reminders, but they are issued using Push Notifications instead of local notifications. You can enable these using the Reminders tab of the Settings screen in the web app.

Hope this helps!

Brendan, Apologies for semi-hijacking the thread, but what about each reminder being issued as a separate notification? That way if I have a few tasks pile up, I see each one as an individual reminder I can swipe-to-dismiss or click on to act upon? I know I can touch "Reminder 1 (3 more reminders) then interact with each one, but it'd be nice if I was reminded separately, too.

Hi fennell.tom,
Right now, reminders issued at the same time are grouped together into a single reminder in the notification bar, as you mentioned, but I'll make sure to pass this on to the development team for review.

Thanks for your feedback on this.
