PingMe
Reminders by place
Get a nudge when you arrive at the supermarket or leave the office. Save the places you care about and PingMe watches them for you.
Reminders for Android
Reminders that find you.
PingMe nudges you at the right place and the right time, and lets your phone do things for you. Set it up in your own words, and stop keeping everything in your head.
- Free for your first month
- No ads, no tracking
- Your data stays on your phone
What it does
Everything you need to remember, and nothing you don't.
Simple on the surface, with the clever parts working quietly in the background.
Say it in plain words
Type or speak "remind me to call mum tomorrow at 5". If it needs one more detail it asks, and you confirm before anything is saved.
Checklists that follow you
Attach a shopping list to a place. Walk into the shop and the list is on your screen, ready to tick off.
Phone automations
Go quiet at work, dim the screen at night, save battery when it runs low. Each one reads as a clear "when this, then that" flow.
Widget and Coming up
See what's next from your home screen. The Home tab highlights what is due within the hour, with Done and Snooze one tap away.
Private by design
No ads, no analytics. Reminders and places live on your phone, and location is never uploaded.
PingMe features in detail
Reminders
The right reminder, at the right moment.
Choose a time, a place, or both kinds side by side. PingMe handles the rest.
- Time: once, daily, weekly, monthly or every few hours.
- Place: when you arrive at or leave Home, Work, the gym or anywhere you save.
- Repeat until done: keep nudging until you finish it.
- Snooze or swipe: 10 minutes, an hour or tomorrow, with a swipe to finish or snooze.
- Tags and filters: group things and find them fast.
The assistant
Just tell it what you want.
No forms, no menus. Describe it the way you would to a friend, by typing or by voice, and the assistant builds the reminder or automation.
"Remind me to buy milk when I get to the supermarket."PingMe asks which supermarket if it needs to, shows you a summary, and saves it when you say yes.
- Asks follow-up questions when something is missing.
- Changes or deletes existing items: "move my 5pm reminder to 6".
- Voice input uses your phone's own speech service, and only when you tap the mic.
Automations
Let your phone do things for you.
Pick when something should start, add conditions if you like, and choose what your phone does. You always see it as a simple flow.
- Start it: arrive or leave a place, a time of day, a low battery, charging, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or a calendar event.
- Do something: change the sound mode, set Do Not Disturb, dim the screen, show a notification, open an app, use the flashlight.
- Stay in control: pause for an hour or until tomorrow, and see a history of every run.

An automation that sets the sound mode on arrival and restores it when you leave.
"Dim my screen at 10 PM every night"
Time-based automations change brightness, Do Not Disturb, battery saver and more.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Which phones does PingMe work on?
PingMe is for Android phones running Android 8.0 or later.
Why does it ask for location "all the time"?
Place reminders must work when the app is closed and your phone is in your pocket. Android watches only the places you saved and wakes PingMe when you arrive or leave. Your location is never uploaded or stored by us. If you only use time reminders, you can decline.
What happens to what I tell the assistant?
Your message, the names of your saved places and the titles of your reminders are sent to our server so it can build the reminder. They are not stored or logged. Voice is turned into text by your phone's own speech service, only when you tap the mic.
What happens when the free month ends?
Reminders, places, tags, checklists and the widget stay free. Automations and the assistant need Premium. Your saved automations are kept and start again when you subscribe.
Can I use it without an account?
Yes. No account is needed. Signing in with Google is optional and only used for cloud backup to your own Google Drive.
Will reminders still fire after my phone restarts?
Yes. PingMe restores your reminders and automations when the phone starts. Some phone makers limit background apps, so the app's Settings has a reliability page with tips for your phone.
Is there a reminder app that reminds me when I arrive somewhere?
Yes. PingMe can remind you when you arrive at or leave a place you have saved, such as Home, work, a gym or a supermarket. You can also attach a checklist, for example a shopping list that appears when you reach the shop.
Can I create reminders by voice?
Yes. Open the assistant, tap the microphone and say what you want, for example "remind me to call mum tomorrow at 5". PingMe turns your speech into text with your phone's own speech service, shows you what it understood and saves it when you confirm.
Does PingMe work offline?
Reminders, places, checklists and automations all run on your phone without an internet connection. Only the plain-words assistant, place search and optional cloud backup need to be online.
How do I get help or share an idea?
Use the contact details on the Google Play listing, or see the contact section of the privacy policy.
