Setting up one-time reminders is easy. You can mark the date on your calendar, set an alarm, etc. But what if you want to be reminded of the same task periodically? Weekly, daily, or even every few minutes?
How to Set Reminders and Notifications on a Windows Computer
That’s not so easy to implement. Most reminder apps on Android or iOS don’t offer an easy way to set repeating reminders, requiring you to manually enter each date or time.
Things get even trickier if you want a reminder that repeats in a few minutes (or seconds), as there is no other application that reminds the user that often. So if you’ve been beating your head against the wall trying to find a way to set recurring reminders, this guide is for you.
The easiest way to set reminders for recurring tasks on a Windows PC is to use Cortana. Microsoft’s own AI assistant can schedule tasks and create timed reminders. And unlike the iPhone’s Siri, voice commands aren’t the only way to control it: you can also type your commands to have them carried out.
