Nudgemail is a smart service that we first wrote about back in 2010. Instead of putting reminders in your calendar, you send an email to Nudgemail and then get a reminder email back at the time you choose. However, Nudgemail has now announced that it’s shutting down the service, at least temporarily.
But if you have a modern email service like Gmail, the same function is built in from the start. It is called Scheduling and allows you to send emails at a later time. The basic idea, of course, is that you can email others at a more convenient time, but you can also use the feature to email yourself. Here’s what you do:
Other email services like Microsoft Outlook and Proton Mail have similar features that work the same way.
Of course, an alternative to sending reminders via email is to use a to-do list app. As a rule, you can schedule the items added to the list. Google Tasks and Microsoft Todo are two popular options.
