Appointment Reminders

Pair the clock with a paper or wall calendar to make daily planning easier. Simply match the date shown on the clock with the date on your calendar to quickly see what’s coming up.

Add Personalized Voice Reminders

Use the clock alongside a voice assistant such as Alexa to hear reminders while also having the day, date, and time clearly displayed. Together, these cues can make it easier to stay on track throughout the day. This also allows for customizable audio reminders with more detail. Ie, "You have physical therapy at 3pm today," or "Elizabeth is coming by at 10am this morning."

Up to 5 Built-In Audio & Visual Reminders

The clock allows you to program up to five daily reminders (medication reminder screen or no message) that appear on the screen and sound an alert. You don't have to dismiss the alert sound, it sounds for a short period of time and then ends automatically. Reminders are easily set using the buttons on the back of the clock.
