Set a reminder
- Open the event and expand Notify.
- Choose Push or Email, or Digest to list the event in your daily digest email. Digest appears once the daily digest is on.
- Choose when the reminder arrives, from At time of event to 1 week before. All-day events offer On the start date and one or more days before. A reminder counting from the end offers On the end date.
- To add another reminder, choose Add notification. An event can have up to five.
You can also ask the When agent to set the same schedule, for example “push me 5 days before.”
Reminder times count back from the start of the event. To count back from the end, choose Before it ends… at the bottom of the timing menu.
To stop reminders for an event, remove everything from Notify.
If delivery is not set up
A note in Notify tells you when Push is not set up, Email delivery is paused, or the daily digest is off. Choose Set up or Review in the note to open Settings → Notifications, or Turn on to turn on the daily digest.
Push and Email are separate. When does not send an email in place of a Push reminder that could not be delivered.
Change the default reminders
New events start with the reminders set for their type. Change those under Default reminders in Settings → Notifications, or in Settings → Event types. Events you have already created keep their own reminders.
