Revision History

When you purchase a Remind-Me license you receive free updates for 1 year from the date of your purchase. If you would like to use a version released after 1 year you may upgrade at a reduced rate. To find your purchase date look in Remind-Me under "Help / About...". The release dates for each version are shown below. You can download an older version for your license.

September 1, 2023 version 10.5:

Fixed bug where the new "..." button in the Find dialog box was not being displayed for large or extra large dialog box sizes
Added a new option to automatically notify you when there is a new version available. You can control if and how often checks are performed at "File / Options... / Prompts / New Version Check:".

August 29, 2023 version 10.4:

Added the ability to filter the Find results by acknowledgment status (whether or not the event has been completed). See the new "..." button in the Find dialog. You can choose to display both acknowledged and un-acknowledged, only acknowledged, or only un-acknowledged events.
Added a wildcard search string (*) to the Find dialog box to list all events within the specified date range
Improved remembering of initial window position by remembering the window state (restored or maximized) instead of just the size
The default time duration of an event now defaults to the duration of the most recently added/edited event, instead of always 30 minutes. This way, if you commonly work with events of the same duration it makes it easier to add new events. When creating a new event by double clicking on the Day or Week calendars, the duration defaults to the time grid size (which is adjustable under Display options).
Added more information/detail in the "Detailed" sync log
Minor display improvements
Fixed bug in Google Sync where if you changed the start/end time of a repeating event the changes wouldn't sync to Google
Updated Google API library to latest version (Google sync module: 26)

Fixed bug where tray icon tooltip that shows upcoming events would sometimes not be updated

November 8, 2022 version 10.1:

Added a new option to modify the display of Remind-Me's icons whenever the Alarm List is open. Useful to help know that alarms are being shown, in case the Alarm List is behind another window. The main program's icon has a bright red dot added and the background color of the task tray icon can be red, green, blue, or yellow. See "File / Options... / Other / Tray Icon Colored When Alarms are Open" to enable/disable this feature and select the desired icon background color.
Increased the maximum SMTP password size from 63 to 255 characters
The down arrow in the calendar views (indicating more events) is now scaled larger with larger day of month font size. Previously the size was set to a maximum, and didn't scale with larger fonts.
When importing a .ics file that contains only 1 event, the calendar display is moved to the next occurrence of that event if the option "File / Options... / Other / Move Selected Calendar Date When Adding Events" is checked
Eliminated button to make Remind-Me the iCalendar (*.ics file and webcal protocol) handler, as this feature is now disabled by Windows. Added documentation on how to change through Windows. Button was located at: "File / Options... / Import / Make Remind-Me Default Handler".
Updated Google API library to latest version (API: 1.57, Google sync module: 24)

Improved the centering of dialog boxes when displayed, so they are always fully visible
Resizable dialog boxes have their position/size on the screen memorized, so when you recall that dialog the next time, it is initialized to the same position/size. Includes Alarm List, Find, Category Filter, and Choose Columns to Display dialogs.
Added the ability to export the whole calendar database to a standard iCalendar (*.ics) file. See "File / Options... / Import / Export Entire Calendar to iCalendar (*.ics) File..."

Updated Google API library to latest version (API: 1.55, Google sync module: 23)

Added an option to choose the size for dialog boxes throughout the program. See "File / Options... / Prompts / Dialog Boxes Size" to choose between Standard, Large, or X-Large.
Updated Google API library to latest version (API: 1.49.0, Google sync module: 22)

May 25, 2020 version 9.2:

Added a new option to remember your preference for snooze time in the alarm window. See "File / Options... / Prompts / Default Snooze Time". You can select a sepecific time or <Last Snooze Time>.
Improved the "Find" dialog. Added an option to find "Occurrences", so if an event repeats multiple times in the find date range, it is listed once for each occurrence, instead of just once per event.
Improved the "Find" dialog. Added an option to only search in comments
Updated Google API library to latest version (API: 1.45.0, Google sync module: 21)
The month/year drop-down controls on the calendar views could sometimes be sized incorrectly (too small) on high resolution displays

Updated quality of displayed images throughout the program for improved appearance
Added option to choose different toolbar button sizes. See "File / Options... / Toolbar / Button Size". Button sizes can be <Automatic>, Tiny, Small, Medium, or Large.
Added support for hyperlinks in event comments. Entering text with a URL protocol (http://, https://, or file:// for example) will automatically be shown as a link so you can double click on the linked text to open that address in the associated application. For example, web addresses will be opened with a web browser.
Improved toolbar display in Print Preview window, so it doesn't flicker when scrolling through pages
Updated Google API library to latest version (API: 1.38.0, Google sync module: 20)
Added product release date in About... dialog
Dropped support for XP and Vista. Supported versions of Windows are 7, 8, and 10.

You can also control the appearance of the button, including whether text labels are shown on the buttons. Right mouse click on the toolbar and choose "Customize..." or select "File / Options... / Toolbar".
Added an option to control the initial default selection when deleting a recurring event. Choose between single occurrence or all occurrences. See "File / Options... / Prompts / Delete Recurring Prompt Defaults to "All Occurrences"".
Added ability to print the Find results list
Added optional new List view field "Next Age" to show the age they will be on their next birthday or anniversary. Previously, only "Current Age" was available as an option. Now both are available choices.

Improved several dialog displays to include the icon in title bar for better association/appearance. (Alarm List, Find, Category Filter, and View List Columns dialogs)
Added more detail in the Google Sync debug log, including a link to each event, so in the case of problems it is easier to identify/find the problematic event
Changed message box text that asks whether to delete a specific occurrence or the whole event to format the date using the Windows short date format, instead of being hard coded to month/day/year format.
Fixed "Desktop Wallpaper" feature, so that it updates as soon as display preferences are changed that affect the month calendar display. Also updates for the option "Options... / Display / Draw X Over Past Days" whenever a new X is drawn.
Right mouse clicking on day of week labels and choosing "Week Starts On..." would bring up the wrong options dialog page. Corrected to bring up the "Display" tab.

November 20, 2017 version 8.7:

November 14, 2017 version 8.6:

Made several of the dialog boxes re-sizable. This includes the Find, Category Filter, and List View Columns dialog boxes.

Added startup check to ensure window is not completely positioned off the screen
Disabled the "Delete" keyboard shortcut when the "List" view isn't displayed. Previously that keyboard shortcut worked even when the List view was not displayed, causing confusion.

Improved robustness of Google Overwrites Remind-Me sync type. (Ignore "deleted" events, which were causing crashing before) (Google Sync 17)

April 12, 2017 version 8.5:

Improved options for sending email reminders. Added support for OAuth 2.0 authentication when using Gmail's SMTP mail server. Prevents having to enable "Allow Less Secure Apps" in Google account, or getting an application specific password and turning on 2-step authentication. See the new "Use Modern Security Protocol (OAuth 2.0)" option in the "E-Mail Configuration" dialog. This option is only available when the mail server is set to smtp.gmail.com. For more details, see the "Special Notes for Sending with Gmail" in the online help.
Display option added to control formatting of timed events in calendar views. Can have the time/event shown on 2 lines as it was previously, or compacted onto a single line. Single line choice gives several format options for how to display the time. See "File / Options... / Display / Timed Event Display Format".
On the "Display" tab in the "Event Information" dialog, when you un-check "Use Default" for either the foreground or background colors the color selector is displayed. Previously you also had to press the "Select..." button before the color selector would be displayed. Same logic applies when setting colors for a category.

When syncing with Google added a sync option to filter by category which events will be synced to the Google calendar. By default events in all categories are synced. See "File / Options... / Sync / Advanced... / Category Filter..." to control which events are synced. You can pick to sync all events in all categories (the default), or only events in selected categories, or all events except those belonging to selected categories. Events in categories not being synced will remain un-changed on your Remind-Me calendar, but not synced to your Google calendar. This option is also useful to include/exclude subscribed calendars when syncing, as each subscribed calendar get placed in its own category.
Improved reliability of Google sync. (sometimes the ID Map table could not be read in)
Added a new option to hide previous/next month days on the monthly calendar. See "File / Options... / Display / Hide Prior/Next Month Days on Month Calendar".

- Improved syncing certain monthly repeating events with Google so they are editable in Google without warning of a repeat frequency that can't be edited
- New advanced option for the Google sync: "All Day Reminder Reference Time". Can be set to either 5pm or Midnight. Notifications for all day events are supposed to be relative to 5pm the prior day, but for some users they are relative to midnight instead.

See "File / Options... / Sync / Advanced...".
