How reminders work
A reminder is something that needs doing on a regular basis: cleaning a filter, servicing a boiler, checking a seal. Home Maison emails you before each one is due, and shows it in the app.
Your next reminder is at the top of Home. Each item’s reminders are on its Reminders tab.
Reading a reminder
Section titled “Reading a reminder”Each reminder shows how soon it is due:
| Label | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Overdue | The date has passed. |
| Due soon | Due in the next two weeks. |
| Coming up | Due later than that. |
| Done for now | You’ve dealt with it. It comes back on its next date. |
| Paused | On hold for now. |
It also says how often it repeats, for example Repeats every 3 months.
When a reminder comes up
Section titled “When a reminder comes up”You have two choices:
- I’ll do it: you’ll take care of it yourself. The reminder is marked done for now and comes back on its next date.
- Book your installer: for items your installer fitted, this opens a request to them, already linked to the reminder. Add anything they should know and send it. See Ask your installer for help.
Who sets reminders
Section titled “Who sets reminders”- Items from your installer: your installer sets the reminders, for example an annual service. You can’t add or delete them, but you can mark them done and book your installer.
- Items you added: you choose. Home Maison suggests reminders when you add the item, and you can add more on its Reminders tab under Add your own: say what needs doing and how often, from every 7 days to every 5 years. Tap Delete to remove one.
Reminder emails
Section titled “Reminder emails”Reminder emails for your installers’ items can be turned off for each installer in Settings, under Reminder emails. The reminders still show in the app.
The emails are in English for now, even if you use Home Maison in French.
