Introducing task reminders
Never let a due date slip again. Opt into email reminders per task and get a nudge the morning it's due.
Deadlines only help if you remember them. That's why Task's Joy now sends email reminders for the tasks that matter most — so the important work never quietly slips past its due date.
How it works
Reminders are opt-in on a per-task basis. When you create or edit a task, choose an email reminder and we'll take care of the rest. There's nothing to configure globally and no noise from tasks you didn't flag.
- Morning-of reminders: on the day a task is due, assignees get an email so it's front of mind.
- Instant reminders: create a task that's already due (or overdue) and the reminder goes out right away.
- Action required: flag a task as needing action and the assignee gets nudged.
Why per-task, not everything
Reminder fatigue is real. If everything pings you, nothing does. By making reminders a deliberate choice on each task, the emails you get actually mean something — a small nudge on the work you decided was worth remembering.
Turn it on for your next important task and let the board do the remembering for you.
