Recurring Reminders

What is it?

Whether it’s a daily medication or a monthly credit card payment – repetitive tasks are easier to handle with Any.do’s recurring reminders. Setting up a recurring reminder is simple and efficient– eliminating the need to set up multiple reminders for the same task.

  • The feature is available on iOS and Android. Any changes to tasks will sync across all platforms. 

How does it work?

  • All you need to do is set the initial reminder, select your increments and the recurrence is set.
