It is very easy to miss the initial sound of an incoming message or
a phone call especially if the smartphone was in another room
at this moment, in a leather wallet or in your jacket when you're in
a car or at the street. If you
don't want to check the display constantly to ensure that you haven't
missed an important phone call or a message you might be waiting for
then you need to try Best Reminder.
Best Reminder provides repeating alarms and visual notification
to draw your attention to received but unnoticed messages and missed calls.
How it works
- 1. You have got a missed call or a message.
- 2. Some time passed (Remind period) and you didn't pay attention to
missed event(s) yet.
- 3. The reminder checks if it's good time to notify or it's late night, for
example (Time restriction in configuration).
- 4. If it's good time it shows "You have" window on the screen and plays
alarm sound.
- 5. It repeats alarm sound after some time passed (Remind period) again
and again (Remind period) until it brings your attention to the unnoticed event(s).

Configuration application

Setup and configuration
To use Best Reminder you should install and start the application, then
configure the needed options (select the reminder sound you like, repeat
interval,
etc) and activate it. When Best Reminder service is activated there is no
need to keep the application opened. You can close it not to waste your device
memory.
Options:
- Reminder - Shows if the Reminder service is working currently or not.
- Remind about missed - Allows you to select which event to monitor and
remind about unnoticed
- Remind period - If you have a missed call or a new sms and you didn't
hear
the initial sound (and didn't check for a missed call or a message) then Best
Reminder will show "You have" window and will play alarm after the time
specified by you
passed and will repeat the alarm with specified interval until you notice it.
- Alarm - The application will play the selected sound in order to bring
your
attention to a missed call or a message.
- Time restriction - Of course it would be highly annoying when you receive
a message at night and Best Reminder notifies you about it the whole night.
That's why you can set up period when the application is allowed to notify you
only (set "Time restriction" to 'yes' and in "From" and "To"
fields fill in the period when the application is allowed to notify you).

Notification window
|
Behind the screen
- Best Reminder is smart enough to notify about new incoming messages
or missed calls only and doesn't annoy you when there's already noticed by you,
but unread messages or missed calls.
- When you activate the service it remembers the current state and notifies
you
only on new events. Also if you've got, for example, 1 missed call and 1
unread message, then read the message only the program assumes you have seen
all unnoticed events, saves the current state and will notify you on NEXT new
missed events only.
- Best Reminder notifies you with your device backlight off.
It doesn't turn the display on not to waste your device battery.
It just powers on the speaker device, plays sound, and turns it off.
- When Best Reminder plays alarm sound it uses your current profile
system volume. So if you use Silent profile or Outdoor one with
maximum volume Best Reminder respects these settings.
- When Best Reminder is activated you can close the configuration application.
Also it DOES NOT HAVE any daemon, service,
or some module working constantly in background at all! Best Reminder
uses latest Windows Mobile API - State and Notifications Broker to do
the job. In simpler words, our application makes persistent requests for
change notifications and when, for example, you have got missed call
the system shell will start
Best Reminder module just for a moment, for it to analyse the situation,
do the job and instantly close itself, until started by the system
shell again only when it is needed. So it doesn't waste your battery life
running at background all the time, no need to worry that some 3rd party
taskman will close it or your device will be restarted.
- Designed for one-hand use as well as touch screen use
