Reminders
Set reminders on tabs to revisit them later
Reminders
Set reminders on tabs to get notified when it's time to revisit them. Reminders help you stay on top of important tabs without losing track of them.
Overview
Reminders are a premium feature that allows you to:
- Set date and time reminders on any tab
- Add notes to remember why you set the reminder
- Get notified when reminders are due
- View, dismiss, or open tabs directly from reminder notifications
Setting a Reminder
- Open Tabhive and navigate to the tab you want to set a reminder for
- Click the three-dot menu (⋮) on the tab
- Select "Reminder" from the dropdown menu
- Choose a date and time for the reminder
- Optionally add a note to remember why you set this reminder
- Click "Set Reminder"
The reminder will be saved and you'll receive a notification when it's due.
Viewing Reminders
When a reminder is due, you'll see a notification overlay on the webpage. The reminder notification shows:
- The tab's title and favicon
- The time the reminder was set
- Any note you added
- Options to view the tab or dismiss the reminder
Reminder Notifications
- Reminders appear as stacked notifications in the top-right corner of web pages
- Multiple reminders stack on top of each other
- Reminders are shown for up to 24 hours after they're due
- Each reminder shows how long ago it was due (e.g., "2 hours ago")
Managing Reminders

Click the "View" button on a reminder notification to:
- Open the tab in a new browser tab
- Automatically dismiss the reminder
Dismiss a Reminder
Click the "Close" button to dismiss a reminder without opening the tab. The reminder will be removed and won't appear again.

- Click the three-dot menu (⋮) on a tab that has an existing reminder
- Select "Reminder" from the dropdown menu

Reminder Features
Notes
Add notes to reminders to remember:
- Why you wanted to revisit the tab
- What action you need to take
- Any context about the content
Notes appear in the reminder notification when it's due.
Multiple Reminders
You can set reminders on multiple tabs. Each reminder works independently:
- Set different dates and times for different tabs
- Each reminder will notify you when it's due
- Reminders are managed per tab
Best Practices
- Set specific times: Choose a date and time when you'll actually be available to review the tab
- Use notes: Add context about why you're setting the reminder
- Review regularly: Check your reminder notifications and either view or dismiss them
- Update as needed: If plans change, update your reminder instead of letting it expire
Troubleshooting
