## a little reminder. every day.

Make room for the things you mean to do each day. Ask umi for a daily reminder in iMessage, choose a time and reply when your check-in arrives.

your daily routine, in your messages.

> umi: time for ten minutes with your book :)
>
> you: I’m tired tonight, maybe just a page
>
> umi: one page sounds like a gentle start

## give one small habit a regular time.

Reading, a short walk or a moment to reflect: start with one daily action. A check-in gives it a place in the day without turning your routine into a task list.

> you: I want a little time to read each day.
>
> umi: what time would fit your evenings?
>
> you: 8 pm. Remind me every day.
>
> umi: saved — I’ll remind you to read every day at 8 pm

## choose your reminder. make it yours.

Complete setup, tell umi the action and schedule, and wait for confirmation. The conversations below are illustrative.

## choose a time you can keep.

Give your reminder a local time. Start with one activity you can actually fit into your day.

- daily schedules at a chosen time

- confirmation of your saved reminder

> you: Remind me to read every day at 8 pm.
>
> umi: saved — I’ll remind you every day at 8 pm in your timezone

## weekdays can look different.

If your weekends follow another rhythm, ask for specific weekdays instead of every day.

- choose Monday to Friday

- keep weekends free

> you: Change my reading reminder to weekdays only.
>
> umi: updated — your reading reminder is now Monday to Friday at 8 pm

## make room for a missed day.

Skip a date on your daily reminder, or change the time when the routine stops fitting.

- skip a particular date

- change or cancel in the conversation

> you: Move my daily reading reminder to 8:30 pm.
>
> umi: updated — your reading reminder is now at 8:30 pm

## make the daily moment real.

Share a glimpse of the habit you made time for after your daily reminder.

>
> you: Made it to my ten minutes of reading tonight.
>
> umi: a few pages count. anything in the book that stayed with you?

## say your daily plan.

Tell umi the habit and the time you want to make room for it.

> you (voice transcript, 12 seconds): Remind me to read for ten minutes every day at 8 pm.
>
> umi: reading at 8 pm each day — is that the schedule you want?

## Example requests

### an evening chapter

Keep the first step small enough for a busy evening.

> Remind me to read for ten minutes every day at 8 pm.

### a morning intention

Choose one thing you want to make room for today.

> Remind me every day at 8 am to choose one priority.

### a moment to reflect

Leave yourself a little space before bed.

> Remind me every evening at 9 pm to reflect on my day.

## every day feels like too much

Ask for selected weekdays. A smaller schedule can be easier to return to than a daily commitment.

## the time no longer works

Ask umi to change the saved reminder. Your schedule uses your saved timezone; check it when travelling.

## clear about your data

Your messages and preferences help umi respond. Our privacy page explains what is stored and which services process it.

## always honest about AI

umi is an AI companion. A friendly conversation, with no pretending there’s a person behind the messages.

## part of your world

umi adds a little company. Your friends, family, community, and professional support still matter.

## you set the pace

You choose your check-ins. Ask umi to change or cancel a reminder. Text STOP to stop messages and request cancellation of future subscription renewals.

## Can I set the same reminder every day?

Yes. Include what you want to remember and a local time, then wait for confirmation that the daily reminder is saved.

## Can I exclude weekends?

Yes. Ask for Monday to Friday, or name the weekdays you want.

## Does umi track a daily streak?

No. You can tell umi how it went, but it does not automatically record completion or maintain a habit streak.

## how much does it cost?

You can review the current subscription offer during signup before subscribing. No separate App Store purchase is needed.

## how do I stop messages?

Send STOP on its own to stop messages and request cancellation of future subscription renewals linked to your phone number. This does not refund the current period. To stop one reminder, ask umi to cancel that reminder instead.

## Are delivery times exact?

Delivery times are approximate. iMessage notifications also depend on your phone’s settings and connectivity; this is not an alarm that overrides Focus or silent mode.

## give tomorrow a little nudge.
