Never Miss Important Tasks with Smart Email Notifications

Why Email Notifications Still Matter

In an age of push notifications and instant messaging, email remains one of the most reliable ways to ensure important information reaches you. Unlike app notifications that can be easily missed or dismissed, emails create a permanent record that you can reference later and access across all your devices.

Smart Reminder's email notification system is designed to complement our app notifications, providing an additional layer of reliability for your most important tasks and appointments.

Customizable Notification Timing

One size doesn't fit all when it comes to reminders. Some tasks need advance notice, while others require just-in-time reminders. Smart Reminder lets you customize when you receive email notifications:

• Immediate: Receive confirmation as soon as a reminder is created
• 10 minutes before: Perfect for quick preparation before meetings
• 1 hour before: Ideal for appointments that require some preparation
• 1 day before: Great for events that need advance planning
• Custom intervals: Set exactly when you need to be reminded

Smart Delivery Optimization

Not all reminders are created equal. Smart Reminder's AI analyzes the importance of each task and optimizes email delivery accordingly:

• Priority flagging for critical reminders
• Bundling of related reminders to reduce email fatigue
• Time-zone aware delivery to ensure notifications arrive at appropriate local times

Setting Up Email Notifications

Getting started with Smart Reminder's email notifications is simple:

1. Go to Settings > Notifications in your Smart Reminder account
2. Enable email notifications and verify your email address
3. Customize your default notification preferences
4. Optionally, set category-specific notification settings

You can also customize notification settings for individual reminders when you create them, overriding your default preferences when needed.

Best Practices for Email Reminders

To get the most out of Smart Reminder's email notification system:

• Reserve email notifications for truly important tasks
• Create a dedicated email folder for Smart Reminder notifications
• Regularly review and update your notification preferences
• Use descriptive reminder titles that will make sense in an email subject line

By thoughtfully configuring your email notifications, you can create a powerful system that ensures you never miss what matters most.
