Pre-Call Reminder
The Pre-Call Reminder sends a notification to your phone a few minutes before a scheduled call. This gives you time to prepare, start the call early, delay it, or cancel it altogether.
How to Turn It On
- Open the app and go to Settings
- Tap Notifications
- Turn on Pre-Call Reminder
- Set how many minutes before the call you want to be notified (1 to 30 minutes, default is 5)
Once enabled, the reminder applies to all your schedules automatically.
What the Notification Shows
When the reminder fires, you'll see a notification with:
- The contact name you're about to call
- How many minutes until the call
The notification also has action buttons so you can act right away without opening the app.
Notification Actions
| Action | What It Does |
|---|---|
| Call Now | Starts the call immediately, without waiting for the scheduled time |
| Snooze 5 min | Delays the call by 5 minutes |
| Skip (repeating schedules) | Skips this call and moves to the next scheduled occurrence |
| Cancel (one-time schedules) | Cancels the call entirely |
tip
If you don't tap any button, the call will still fire at the originally scheduled time as normal.
Bell Icon on Your Schedules
When Pre-Call Reminder is turned on, you'll see a small bell icon on your schedule cards in the list. This is a visual reminder that notifications are active for your schedules.
Good to Know
- Short notice schedules: If you create a schedule that's sooner than your reminder time (for example, a call in 2 minutes with a 5-minute reminder), the app skips the notification and fires the call directly at the scheduled time.
- Works with all schedule types: One-time calls, repeating calls, and weekly schedules all support pre-call reminders.
- Independent from Call Reminder mode: Pre-Call Reminder works regardless of whether your schedule uses Auto Call or Call Reminder mode. It's a separate heads-up notification before either mode kicks in.
