Windows notifications disappear on their own. This one stays on top of everything until you deal with it. No “I’ll get to it” that turns into never.

Sound familiar?
Easy Reminder won’t let that happen.
How it works
It lives right next to your clock.
Type it like you’d say it: fri 2pm, in 3 weeks, tomorrow morning.
When it’s due, it sits on top of everything until you Acknowledge or Snooze.
Try it right here
Fill it in the way you would in the app and click Set reminder. A few seconds later you’ll see exactly what pops up.
Small app. Big follow-through.
No close button, no minimize, and Alt+F4 does nothing. Only Acknowledge or Snooze.
“The third Friday in March.” “Christmas.” “In half an hour.” It shows what it understood before you save.
15 or 30 minutes in one tap, or type any time you like.
PC was off when it was due? It pops up the moment Windows starts.
Daily, weekdays, weekly, monthly, yearly or hourly. Or your own: every 2 weeks, every 3 days, every 6 months.
No account, no tracking. Reminders never leave your PC; the only internet use is checking your license. Under 500 KB, installs without admin rights.
Add an optional note (“ask about moving it to Friday”) and it shows right on the pop-up.
Pick any Windows sound, including alarm tones, and have it chime again every 1, 5 or 15 minutes until you acknowledge.
Choose where pop-ups appear, set your own quick picks and snooze buttons, and back up your reminders to a file.
Why we built it
For years we relied on the classic Outlook reminder window, the one that stayed put until you dealt with it. When it went away, we tried app after app. Nothing stayed on screen.
So we built the one we wanted. Then we lived with it for a while, adding, removing and tweaking things until it did the right stuff, the right way.

Questions
Easy Reminder runs on Windows 10 (version 1903 or later) and Windows 11. It needs .NET Framework 4.8, which those versions already include.
Yes. Easy Reminder comes with a 14-day free trial, so you can see how it fits your day before you pay anything.
One license covers up to 3 PCs, so you can put it on your work PC, your home PC and a laptop. Getting a new PC? Deactivate the old one and move your key over. Need more than 3? Add a PC for $9. Only need one? There’s also a single-PC license: $9.99 at launch, then $19.99.
Yes. It’s a lifetime license: pay once, no subscription, no renewals.
No account. Your reminders are stored in a small file on your own PC and never leave it. The only internet use is the license: activating or moving a key, plus a quiet check about once a month. Being offline never takes your license away.
Reminders stop popping up until you enter a license key, but nothing is deleted. The moment you activate, anything that came due in the meantime pops up, marked “Missed”.
No. The reminder card keeps itself above other windows, including ones that also try to stay on top, until you Acknowledge or Snooze it. It doesn’t steal your keyboard focus, so it won’t interrupt what you’re typing.
The price goes to $49.99 lifetime for 3 PCs (the single-PC license goes from $9.99 to $19.99). If you buy at the launch price, that’s what you pay. There’s nothing more to pay later.
No. Lifetime licenses are only sold for our first six months, and they won’t return. The launch price is the best deal we’ll ever offer, then lifetime is $49.99 until the window closes. After that, Easy Reminder moves to $39.99 a year or $5 a month for up to 3 PCs, and the single-PC license is retired. Every lifetime license bought before then stays lifetime: updates and fixes included as they come out, no renewals, ever.
