Reminderoo – Personal Notes
Have you ever forgotten about important date and time and having so much trouble organizing your life ? Reminderoo is here to help you out.
I. Landing Page
It’s bad, really bad. I don’t like the color combination, I don’t like the way it looks, I don’t like those flashy animation and I totally loss my patience waiting the page to load up.
The registration handled manually without any connection to either Twitter, Facebook or OpenID. My first look at this app is bad, I just hoped that the functionality could cover up for the messy landing page.
II. Dashboard
Once you are done with the registration and activation, you will be redirected to a wizard in your dashboad. Started from importing contact from your mail provider (currently support MSN, Yahoo, GMail and AOL) to setting up your first reminder. Although the loading still stuttered on my internet connection, the Wizard is a big plus for Reminderoo.
III. Features
What I like most is the grouping system Reminderoo provided for your contact list, the relationship between you and your contacts and its easy to navigate and to understood workflow.
Reminderoo main features is its reminder system. I like the way they manage the reminder by category on its own. Worry not, you can choose Misc and Other Event if your event reminder choice is not available. To tell you the truth, I prefer if they allowed you to add a custom reminder rather than adding two static Misc and Other Event.
The reminder add page doesn’t have a pop-up calendar for you to easily choose the date, so you have to manually input the date and time for the reminder (date format : YYYY/MM/DD)
After all done, the screen will change to a calendar view for easy viewing of any reminder you’ve got.
Aside from a reminder, you could also set an automatic invitation send to your colleagues or family member with a pretty much same interface as adding a reminder, only this time, you sending it out to other people. Another plus for Reminderoo since the same navigation workflow will help first timer to easily understand Reminderoo features better.
One thing that I miss from my trial is the automatic email asking for birth date to my contacts. I don’t know the exact point when Reminderoo asking for the contact(s) birth date, I just hoped that this is not an automatic feature when adding a contact, since I’m afraid some of my contact(s) might think of this as a privacy breach.
IV. Verdict
Reminderoo’s slow loading landing page is paid off with great functionality. Although I haven’t tried the SMS features yet (50 SMS Credit = 5 USD) , I do believe the SMS features will works great. Start making your life organized by bookmarking Reminderoo.
