# Set reminders for your practice

A reminder brings you back to your Daily Ritual or a chosen board. A **board** is a group of futures about one topic.

## Set it from Today

After you finish your Daily Ritual, Today shows a reminder line under **Replay**.

1. Tap **Remind me tomorrow**, **Set a reminder**, or **Change** beside the time shown.
2. Set **Time**. It starts at your saved time when the reminder is on. Otherwise, it starts at 8:00 AM.
3. Tap **Save**.

Today then shows your next reminder, such as **Tomorrow at 8:00 AM**. This is your Daily Ritual reminder. Saving here keeps the days you already chose in Profile.

To stop it, open the same screen and tap **Turn off reminder**.

If notifications are off for Futurecast, the screen says so. Tap **Open Settings**, allow notifications, then return and tap **Save** again.

## More reminder settings

For repeat days, board reminders, and more, open **Profile > Daily Practice**. The instructions below cover both reminder screens. Use the section that matches what you see.

## Daily reminder

If you see **Reminders**:

1. Tap **Reminders**.
2. Tap the **Daily Ritual** card.
3. Turn on **Reminder on**.
4. Set **Time**.
5. Choose the days under **Repeat**.
6. Allow notifications when your iPhone asks.

## Board reminders

1. Open **Profile > Daily Practice > Reminders**.
2. Tap **Add a reminder**.
3. Choose a board.
4. Set its time and repeat days.
5. Check that **Reminder on** is enabled.

You can also open a board's three-dot menu and tap **Remind Me**. If it already has a reminder, the menu says **Edit Reminder**.

A board can have one reminder. If you reach the reminder limit, remove an unneeded board reminder before adding another.

<a id="turn-off-reminders"></a>

## Turn off reminders

Use the switch beside a board on the Reminders screen. Or open a reminder and turn **Reminder on** off.

To remove a board reminder:

1. Open the reminder.
2. Tap **Delete reminder**.
3. Confirm **Delete**.

You will stop getting that reminder. The board and its futures remain saved.

The Daily Ritual reminder can be turned off. It does not have the same delete option.

<a id="private-text"></a>

## Private text

An enabled notification reminder can show your words on the Lock Screen. Consider who may be able to see your screen before turning this on.

1. Open the reminder.
2. Find **Show on lock screen**.
3. Turn it off to keep the reminder's text generic.
4. Check the preview below the setting.

Turning this off does not turn the reminder off. For a board reminder, it hides the board's name and future text. For the Daily Ritual, it hides the future text.

If you have several reminders, a reminder may show the board's name without a rotating future. The preview explains what it will show.

<a id="alarm-option"></a>

## Alarm option

If your reminder editor has a **Delivery** section, you can choose **Notification** or **Alarm**.

1. Open an enabled reminder.
2. Find **Delivery**.
3. Tap **Alarm**.
4. Follow the iPhone's alarm permission prompt.
5. Check that Alarm is selected afterward.

Alarm access is separate from notification access. If an alarm cannot be saved, read the message and keep using Notification until the issue is resolved.

The Lock Screen text preview applies to Notification delivery.

## If you see Daily Ritual Reminder

Some versions show the daily settings directly in Profile:

1. Turn on **Daily Ritual Reminder**.
2. Allow notifications when asked.
3. Set **Reminder Time**.
4. If **Show your futures** appears, choose whether the reminder includes your future text.

Turn **Daily Ritual Reminder** off to stop it.

<a id="missing-reminders"></a>

## Missing reminders

1. Check that the reminder is enabled.
2. Check its time and selected days.
3. If you see **Notifications are off**, tap it to open Settings. In the simpler interface, tap **Open Settings**.
4. Allow Futurecast notifications in your iPhone settings.
5. Return to Futurecast and check the reminder again.

For Alarm delivery, check the alarm permission message separately.
