Ask "what reminders do I have?" on WhatsApp

One question in chat brings your active reminders back as a list, and it doubles as the launch pad for editing any of them.

It is easy to lose track of what you have set, especially once a few routines pile up. On WhatsApp you can just ask, in plain words, and ReminderIt reads your active reminders back to you.

This post shows how to ask, what the list looks like, and how it becomes the starting point for changing anything you see.

Just ask in plain words

There is no menu to open. Type something like "what reminders do I have?" or "show my reminders" and the assistant understands. Because it reads natural language, you do not need an exact phrase.

The reply lists your active reminders, so you can see at a glance what is coming and when.

Reading the list

Each item shows enough to identify it, what it is for and when it runs, so you can tell your 8am tablets apart from your Thursday dentist call.

Seeing them together often surfaces the odd duplicate or a time that no longer suits you, which is exactly what you want to catch.

Editing from the list

The list is a springboard, not a dead end. Once you can see a reminder, you can change its time or wording, reschedule it, or cancel it, all in the same conversation by simply saying which one and what to change.

That flow, list then adjust, is the quickest way to keep everything current.

A quick example

You: What reminders do I have?

ReminderIt: You have three active: 1) Tablets, weekdays 8:00am. 2) Dentist, Thursday 2:15pm. 3) Bin day, Tuesday 7:00pm. All Europe/London.

You: Move the bin one to 6pm

ReminderIt: Done, bin day now rings at 6:00pm on Tuesdays.

Keeping it accurate over time

Checking your list now and then, and marking done or cancelling what is finished, keeps the answer meaningful. A list you trust is one you will actually rely on.

It is all free to view and edit in chat, so glance at it whenever you are unsure what is scheduled.
