FAQ
Common questions
How do I set reminders via text?
Text Zita the task and timing in plain language. Zita confirms the reminder, holds it, and brings it back later by SMS.
What should a reminder text include?
Include the task and the time it should come back, such as "cancel trial Friday" or "parking meter at 4:45".
Do I need a reminder app?
No. Zita works through SMS, so the reminder starts and returns inside the messaging app you already use.
Best moments to text it
Text-based reminders are strongest when speed matters more than organization. If you would avoid a calendar because the task is tiny, or avoid a task manager because setup takes longer than the thought, send the reminder by SMS instead.
The format stays simple
The best reminder texts combine one action with one time. You do not need syntax, labels, or a calendar. Write the way you would text a person: what to do and when Zita should bring it back.
One message is the whole setup.
Use Zita when the task is too small for a productivity system but too important to lose. Text it now; she brings it back.
