Appointment Reminders: Never Miss an Appointment

Missed appointments cost time, money, and sometimes a long wait for a new slot. A good appointment reminder makes sure you're always on time and prepared.

Add the reminder the moment you book

The best time to set an appointment reminder is right when you book. Add the date and time immediately so it can't slip your mind in the weeks ahead.

Use two alerts: day-before and hours-before

With Reminder Notifications set a reminder the day before so you can prepare, plus one a couple of hours before so you have time to travel and arrive on time.

Keep the details handy

Add the address, phone number, and any documents you need to the reminder note, so everything is ready when the alert arrives.
