It sucked that voice reminders were only available to U.S and Canadian when Task.fm was first launched. So its a great joy to open up this killer feature worldwide. So just like our sms/text message reminders, you can receive voice calls pretty much anywhere in the world.
Voice reminders work by converting your text based reminder into speech - Task.fm will then call you at the time you specified and read aloud your reminder. You need never pay for a ridiculously priced hotel wakeup call again! Pro Task.fm users get unlimited voice reminders each month.
Pro taskers – try sending yourself a voice reminder. Personally, I have found voice reminders to be more effective than sms reminders. Simply because they force you to listen!
All pro users can now receive voice reminders. Just visit the settings page to enter your “voice reminder number”
As always let us know what you think of the feature.

A good alternative for iPhone users is VoCal Voice Reminders for iPhone which can be found at http://www.gzero.com.
I find it much faster than dialling a number and leaving a message.
