Recurring series only advance after you complete the current occurrence. If you don’t mark it Done, the next one won’t be created.

Completing multiple times in one day can skip future occurrences (expected).

A task can have either a time‑based reminder or a Location reminder. Clear one to switch to the other.

On Android, optional on‑top pop‑ups (Display over other apps) show Snooze instantly. On iOS, swipe the notification for Snooze.

Battery optimization: exclude Any.do if your device restricts background activity.

Arrive vs Leave: start outside the area to test Arrive; step fully away to test Leave.

A task can’t have both Location and time reminders. Clear the time reminder, then add Location.

Saved place accuracy: pick the exact pin/address if the area is large.

Make sure the task has a due date + time and a reminder.

You’ll get push updates when you’re assigned or mentioned. Ask teammates to assign or @mention you.

Turn it on: In the Any.do app go to Settings → Integrations → WhatsApp Reminders and make sure it’s On.

Keep the chat active: Open your WhatsApp conversation with the Any.do bot every so often (just to view the reminders). If the chat goes inactive, messages may pause until you re‑engage or re‑enable the toggle above.

Personal vs Workspace bots: You’ll see two separate chats — one for Personal and one for Workspace/Family. Use the right chat for the reminders you expect.

Per‑user only: WhatsApp reminders are sent to you only. You can’t send a WhatsApp reminder to someone else.

Shared boards: For board tasks, set reminders in the app. When due, each member who enabled WhatsApp gets the alert to their own bot chat.

Recurring personal reminders via WhatsApp: Complete the current occurrence in the app so the next one is created and future WhatsApp alerts continue.

Completion limits: Tasks can’t be completed inside WhatsApp. Finish them in the app to keep the flow going.

Notifications muted? Check the bot chat isn’t muted in WhatsApp and that your phone isn’t on Do Not Disturb/Focus.
