Task Tips: Ignore Times

by Anthony Feint on August 7, 2009

quotesWe’ve pushed a new feature that will ignore any times and dates that are enclosed in quotation marks.

Sometimes you want to be reminded earlier than the actual event.  From the settings page you could setup “remind me in advance”, but now we have added a way to do this when actually creating a reminder.  For example if I wanted to be reminded a day in advance about paying the water bill:

Pay the water bill by the “18th of July” remind me tomorrow at 10

This would send me a reminder Tomorrow with “pay the water bill by the 18th of July”.  Any times or dates will just be added to the reminder.  Another example.

meeting with Tom “at 2pm” remind me in 2 hours

It doesn’t matter where you put the quotes as long as you leave the actual time you wish to be reminder outside.

Yeah, this clears up some small issues I had with the syntax :) Great add!
