## Messages to send Mindie
- The moment it pops up: "Remind me in 20 minutes to take the laundry out"
- A brain dump, by voice: "Remind me tomorrow at 10 to book the dentist, at 2 to email Sam, and at 6 to buy a gift for Mira"
- Recurring basics: "Every day at 9am remind me to take my meds"

Mindie is a WhatsApp assistant that lets you capture a task the second it appears, by text or voice note, and get reminded at the right time. Send "remind me in 20 minutes to take the laundry out" and the thought is out of your head and somewhere safe.

For many people with ADHD, the problem isn't caring about tasks. It's that a thought arrives, something else arrives a second later, and the first one is gone. Every extra step between the thought and saving it is a chance to lose it.

## Why WhatsApp helps

- **It's already open.** No app to find, no screen to navigate, no categories to choose.
- **Voice notes are the fastest capture there is.** Talk while walking, and Mindie turns it into a reminder.
- **Brain dumps work.** Several tasks in one message become several reminders, each with its own time.
- **Reminders arrive with your messages,** in an app you check anyway, not a notification from an app you've muted.

## What people use it for

- **Short-term nudges,** like "in 20 minutes" or "at 4".
- **Daily basics,** like [medication](/reminders/medicine) or [water](/reminders/drink-water).
- **The boring admin** that slips: bills, appointments, renewals.
- **A Sunday recap,** so the week's commitments are in one message.

## How it works

Link your number, send reminders and notes in words or voice notes. If you forget a time, Mindie asks for one. Reply to a reminder to move it.

## What Mindie doesn't do

- **It isn't medical advice or treatment.**
- **It doesn't nag unless you ask.** Each reminder comes once by default. Say "nag me until I do it" and it comes back every 30 minutes, at most 3 times, until you reply done.

## FAQ

### Is Mindie a treatment for ADHD?
No. Mindie is a reminder assistant, not medical help. Many people with ADHD find external reminders useful, but talk to a professional about anything medical.

### What if I forget to set a time?
Mindie asks you for one, so nothing is saved without a time to remind you.

### Will it nag me if I ignore a reminder?
Only if you ask. Each reminder comes once by default. Add "nag me until I do it" and it comes back every 30 minutes, at most 3 times, until you reply done. You can also reply "snooze" to get it again in 30 minutes.
