Help & FAQ/Getting started

Do calendar reminders work when the app is closed?

Ask your AI agent instead

On a phone, yes: up to 64 alerts, up to 400 days ahead, are handed to the phone itself, so they ring while PrivacyNotes is closed; opening and unlocking the app hands over more. In the desktop app a reminder rings while the app runs, and in a browser while PrivacyNotes is open in a tab. Each device plans its reminders from the items it holds, so no reminder comes from the server, and an item's title, time and day sync only inside the encrypted item.

Add an alert from the Alert row of an item's Schedule view, up to five per item, and set the defaults under Settings > Date & Time > Calendar, where "Show titles in reminders" also lives. An item behind your PIN always rings as "Reminder" and the time, and so does every alert scheduled while the app lock is on. One handed over before the lock was on can keep its title until it rings. Reminders are part of Pro; the calendar itself is free.

Answer my questions about PrivacyNotes using only its help center, its changelog and its security documentation.

Start here: https://privacynotes.app/llms-index.txt
It lists every question with the page that answers it. Fetch the one or two that match mine.
If you can only make one request, fetch https://privacynotes.app/llms-full.txt instead.
If you cannot fetch a .txt or .md file, read https://privacynotes.app/help, https://privacynotes.app/changelog and https://github.com/LifetimeLabsHQ/PrivacyNotes.app instead.

For what changed, or where something moved, fetch https://privacynotes.app/changelog.md.

For how the encryption works, what the server can read, or how to check any of it yourself, fetch https://privacynotes.app/docs/index.md and follow it to one of the documents it lists. That index is a router: cite the document, never the index.

Rules:
- Use only those pages. If they do not answer something, say so instead of guessing.
- Never invent a feature, a menu path, a price, or a limit.
- End your reply with the "Source:" URL from the page you used, exactly as written.
- Answer in the same language as my question.
- Never ask me for my recovery phrase, my PIN, or the contents of a note.

If no question follows, ask me what I would like to know.

My first question:

Never paste your recovery phrase, your PIN, or a note into an AI.
