Get Free Telephone Reminders With Wakerupper
Before I switched to Comcast’s phone service I had the ability to set wakeup calls with Verizon. Unfortunately Comcast does not offer that service and I get really nervous about shutting my alarm clock off and falling back to sleep when I have an early appointment or flight for a trip. So, I was glad to come across the blog post by Michael over at infodoodads, wakerupper - make any phone into an alarm clock. Wakerupper is a free service that allows you to set a time to receive a call to a specific phone number with no registration required. If you register though you receive additional features.
If you choose not to register all you need to do is fill in a form and your call is set up. Add a little text and it will be included in your call using a computerized voice. You can use Wakerupper to
Set a wake-up call at a specific time
Remind yourself of important events
Remember to take medication on time
Escape from a boring date or meeting
Remind child or spouse to do chores
Set reminders for tasks and follow-ups
If you register for Wakerupper you can
Schedule calls with a voice message rather than a computerized voice
Schedule recurring calls (great for birthday and anniversary reminders)
View past calls
Keep track of future calls
Set a snooze to repeat the call
Wakerupper is still in beta and I hope the developers continue to look at ways to broaden the service such as integration with calendars applications like Outlook and Google Calendar. Currently Wakerupper is only available for the U.S. and Canada and only in English though if you record your own voice message you can get over that hurdle.
Just think, you could send a birthday reminder call to family and friends…
