Reminders sent as real texts, because texts get read
Medication, bills, appointments, kind words. Set it once and the right text shows up at the right moment, for you or the people you love.
No app needed on the receiving end. A real SMS reaches nearly any mobile phone, from the newest iPhone to the flip phone in Dad's pocket.
Free to download. Pay as you go, no subscription. Available in the United States and Canada.
Notifications beg for attention. Texts just get read.
A push notification needs a smartphone, an app, and permission. A text needs a phone. That is the whole trick.

Learn moreA real text, not another push notification
Most reminder apps send a push notification. That only works if the person has a smartphone, has your app installed, has notifications turned on, and has data or wifi at that moment. Set Text Go sends a true SMS through the phone network, so the reminder is a real text, the same kind you get from a friend.
- Reaches any mobile phone, including basic flip phones
- No app to download for the person receiving the reminder
- Works without wifi or mobile data on their end
- Lands in the text inbox, not buried under app notifications

Frequently asked questions
Does the person receiving the reminder need the app?
No. Set Text Go sends a real SMS text message, so the person you are reminding does not need the app, an account, or even a smartphone. It works on any phone that can receive texts.
Is this a push notification?
No. A push notification only works on a smartphone with the app installed and notifications enabled. Set Text Go sends a true text message over the phone network, so it works on basic phones and without wifi or data on the recipient's side.
Can I set recurring reminders?
Yes. You can schedule a one time reminder or set daily, weekly, or monthly recurring texts for things like medication, bills, and appointments.
How much does it cost?
The app is free to download. You pay as you go with credits and there is no subscription. See the pricing page for details.
