SMS reminder app features that reach anyone
Set Text Go is built around one idea: a reminder only matters if the right person sees it in time. Every feature exists to serve that.
Real text messages, flexible schedules, multiple recipients, and simple pay as you go credits, all in an app that respects your time and your privacy.
Plenty of apps can nudge you with a push notification, but a push only reaches a smartphone that has the app installed and permissions turned on. Set Text Go sends a real SMS text message, so it reaches almost any phone. That single difference shapes everything below.
Everything Set Text Go does for you
Simple on the surface, dependable underneath.
Real SMS to any phone
Reminders go out as true text messages over the phone network, so they reach almost any mobile phone, even a basic flip phone, with no app, smartphone, or internet needed on the other end.
One time and recurring schedules
Send a single heads up, or set daily, weekly, or monthly reminders for medication, bills, and routines that repeat. You pick the exact time.
Multiple recipients
One reminder can go out to several people at once. Set a single reminder for the whole family, so a dose reminder reaches an elderly parent and a shared plan lands with everyone at the same time.
Pay as you go credits
The app is free to download. You buy credits and use them as you go, with no subscription. Credits do not expire, so you only pay for the reminders you actually send.
Privacy and security
Your reminders and contacts are yours. We never sell or share your data, and everything runs on United States based infrastructure. See our privacy policy for the details.
Fast setup
Download, verify your number, and send your first reminder in a couple of minutes. The flow is short by design, so nothing gets in the way.
Scheduling as flexible as your life
Simple for a one time nudge, and powerful enough for the most particular routine.
Set it once, exactly the way you want
Most reminders take seconds to create. When you need more control, it is right there without getting in the way.

A reminder that reaches everyone you care about
The real SMS feature is the heart of Set Text Go. Because reminders are true text messages, they reach the people a push notification would miss: an elderly parent on a basic phone, a friend who never turns on notifications, or anyone whose phone is offline at that moment.
Text messages are one of the few channels almost everyone sees. Around 98% of text messages get read, a widely cited industry figure, and roughly 9% of U.S. adults have a cellphone but not a smartphone, so a text still reaches them when an app cannot.
- No app needed by the recipient
- Works without wifi or mobile data on their end
- Lands in the text inbox, not buried under notifications
- Reaches basic phones and smartphones alike
- Always comes from the same number, so recipients recognize it at a glance
