Habit reminders:
what time actually works?

A "time to work out" notification on the morning commute gets dismissed. A reminder has to arrive when you can act on it straight away.

Choosing the time

Do-it vs log-it reminders

"Time to do it" and "if you did it, stamp it" are different reminders. Put the first at a good time to act and the second before bed, and fewer done-but-unlogged days slip by.

Where reminders live
1

Daily reminder

Set the time and days for the Daily reminder in My Praise Stamp Board’s Settings; leave weekends out if you like. The wording changes with your streak length.

2

Per goal

Turn on Remind me about this goal in a goal’s editor for its own time and days. Use per-goal reminders to act and the daily reminder to log.

3

Streak warning

Warn me before a streak breaks fires at your chosen time only if you haven’t stamped yet that day.

FAQ

Reminders don’t arrive.

Check that notifications are allowed for the app in your phone’s settings; without permission the app can’t turn reminders on.

Can I change the wording?

The wording is built in; the "Encouragement pack" extra adds more variety.
