might have.
How is Reten different from a regular reminder?
Reten uses AI to write new messages based on your intention. Each one offers a different way to remember why it matters to you.
Can I choose when messages arrive?
Yes. For each intention, choose how often you’d like a message and which hours suit you. Messages arrive at different times within those hours. You can adjust your settings or turn reminders off at any time. Your device and notification settings may affect when messages arrive.
Can I read a message again?
Yes. You can reread any message you’ve received in the app. Small and medium Home Screen widgets automatically display the latest one.
Do I need to track my progress?
No. You don’t need to track your progress or report back. Reten helps you remember what matters, without streaks or tasks to check off.
When can I download Reten?
Reten is coming soon to iPhone. We haven’t announced a release date yet.
