Reminders list

Skrol ensures that you never miss important events in the lives of your family members, friends, and associates. The Reminders page below is a place to view, search, and manage pending, current, and expired reminders.

— The first section displays today's reminders and notifications about forthcoming events. You can adjust the range of days before and after today's date in Settings.

— To ensure ample preparation time for an event, you can enable multiple notifications for each reminder.

— The next two section show expired (crossed out) and pending reminders for each address book.

— You can select to show all reminders in a single list or by account (as it is on the left);

When the app is closed, you will receive notifications about pending reminders on the Lock Screen, inside the Notification Center, as banners inside apps, and as the badge in the upper right-hand corner of the app icon.

Reminders folder

The pending birthdays and annual recurring events, such as "Wedding anniversary" or "Extend lease agreement" are contained in the person's folder.

Tapping the event name in the Reminders list opens the event-related folder (shown on the left). It contains four additional options to help you resolve the reminder:

— Send a gift command will connect you to popular gift sites so you can select, order, and send an appropriate gift;

— Add to Calendar. To avoid cluttering your schedule with numerous reminders, you can add them to your Calendar app only when they become due.

— Snooze for N days command lets you postpone a reminder for the number of days selected in the Settings.

— Off until the next year command will remove the reminder from the pending list until its next occurrence.

‍In addition to these options, you can make a call, send a text, start a chat, or post a social page message to convey your wishes related to this event right from Skrol.

Reminders settings (1)

The Reminders functions are infinitely customizable to accommodate your work needs and lifestyle. To open the Reminders settings page (on the left), tap the sandwich menu in the upper-left corner under the avatar shown in the previous illustration. The following options are available:

— The Accounts to monitor section lets you select which address book (in addition to iPhone's) to include in the round-the-clock monitoring of the pending reminders.

The numbers 56 and 410 indicate the number of contacts, not reminders. This information helps distinguish one account from another when monitoring two or more address books from the same service.

— The Show reminders section lets you choose the range of days for showing expired and newly pending reminders relative to today's date. In the example on the left, on May 5th, the app will show reminders between May 1st and May 25th.

Reminders settings (2)

The Scheduled notifications section lets you select the time of day and how far in advance to show the first, second, and final notifications even when Skrol app isn't running.

A tap on the notification's banner or the app's icon with a badge will take you to the Reminders page so you can act on it.

The Snooze reminders option lets you select the number of days you wish to postpone showing an event from the reminders list.

You can use the Canceled events command on the Reminders options menu (not shown here) to review and restore canceled or snoozed reminders,

Once you get used to the app in the default configuration, all of these options will help you mold it to your preferences and circumstances.
