Apple Reminders make it easy to jot down something important and remember it later. However, alerts often get in the way when you turn on your computer, and you may want to receive them a bit later. Or maybe you need a notification *exactly* when your Mac starts up?

[**WakeMinder**](https://apps.apple.com/app/instant-reminders-wakeminder/id6744974871) solves both of these problems. You need to install a service app on your Mac and a second app on iOS or Apple Watch.

Now on your phone or watch, you can specify what you need to be reminded about and when: at Mac startup, after a certain amount of time with optional repeats. These reminders can also be integrated with Apple Reminders.

Then, at the specified time, you’ll see the notification on your computer exactly when it’s convenient for you.

### Pricing

WakeMinder has a free version with small limitations. In the paid version for $1.99 per month, you get:

- Unmissable alerts
- Link sharing
- Automatic detection of your Mac’s wake time
- Advanced formatting
