QuidNunc

Your daily schedule is surely crowded, and chances are you’re sure to forget about some of them. This can lead to some serious problems, but you can easily set up reminders. This is exactly the purpose of QuidNunc, fitted with multiple alarm slots which only need a one-time configuration, alerting you on a daily basis.

Perks of portability

One of the application’s core advantages is that it saves you a great deal of effort, because it’s not bundled inside an installer and can thus be used from the moment download is done. As such, it can easily be carried around on a thumb drive to be able to have all reminders with you, regardless of the computer you’re working on.
There aren’t any alerts configured by default, and the main window clearly states how to start adding them. Bringing up the creation panel lets you set all of them by simply writing down the target hour, as well as a description for the reminder. Clock format can either be AM/PM, or in 24-hour format.

Good, but far from being a pro

Unfortunately, there are only five alarm slots at your disposal, so you need to decide which is more important and which to discard. What’s more, audio alerts use built-in sound, and there isn’t any possibility to use your own files, with a high chance that you don’t hear it if you’re not really paying attention.
However, a large window shows up when the time comes. It displays the event due time, your message, as well as the system current time to let you know if and how late you are. Sadly, the application can’t be made to run with Windows by default, but you can bypass this by adding a shortcut in the system Startup folder to have alarms ready.

To end with

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that QuidNunc comes with good intentions, but is a little underprepared to fulfill its role as a powerful reminder system. All alerts are discarded on exit, with only up to five available slots to use.
