Remember early
Set the reminder far enough ahead to order, ship, book, or write something that does not feel rushed.
Reminder idea
Remember birthdays, anniversaries, and gift deadlines.
A thoughtful text, card, gift, or reservation usually needs a reminder before the date itself. Text Zita when the person comes to mind.
Use real details
Include the person's name and the action, like buy, call, mail, reserve, or wrap.
Keep it kind
Zita is good for the social deadlines you care about but do not want to carry around all week.

FAQ
Common questions
Can I use Zita for birthday, anniversary, and gift reminders?
Yes. Text a reminder when a person or date comes to mind, especially if you need time to order, mail, reserve, or call.
How do I format a reminder text?
Write the task and timing in one plain sentence, such as "call Sam tomorrow at 3" or "laundry in 20m". Zita is built for short natural reminders.
Do I need to install an app?
No. Zita works through text messages, so you can create reminders from the messaging app you already use.
Can I stop reminder texts?
Yes. Reply STOP to opt out and stop texts for that phone number. Reply HELP for help instructions. You can also manage SMS reminder preferences in your Zita account.
Good gift reminders need details
A birthday or gift reminder is more useful when it includes the person, the occasion, and the next action. Text the reminder when you think of it, then let Zita bring back the detail before the date gets close.
Thoughtful is easier with a little lead time.
Send the reminder as soon as you remember. Let Zita handle bringing it back.
