Nudge someone and once they accept, it rings as a real alarm on their phone — not just a notification. Setting a reminder for yourself works the same way, minus the accept step.
Nudge someone
They accept it, then it rings as a real alarm on their phone.
Remind yourself
The same real alarm, just on your own phone instead — never both at once.
Real reasons people nudge someone
A founder assigning a nudge to the team for the task that can't wait.
Attach a quick voice note or photo so the nudge explains itself.
Remind an elderly parent to take their medicine — right on their phone.
Get a friend out the door in time to catch their flight.
