How to Use Event Reminders

For Teamup account users, event reminders alert of upcoming events. Reminders are sent at a specified time before an event starts. Currently, reminders are delivered by email only.

There are two ways to enable reminders for a calendar:

Reminder: event reminders are only available for Teamup account users. To set up event reminders, you must be logged in and using a browser, as mobile apps do not yet support event reminders. You can set up event reminders no matter what level of access you have.

How to add reminders for a single event

  1. Make sure you are logged into your Teamup account.
  2. Open your calendar and select an event to open it.
  3. Next to Reminders, select Show to open the dialog:
  4. Select Add new reminder:
  5. Set the timing for the event reminder as desired, then Save.
  6. Select X to delete any reminder.
  7. When finished managing event reminders, select the green Done/Save button in the event reminder dialog. Then select Save (event editor) or select X (event viewer) to close the event.

    Set event reminders for a single event
    Choose the number of minutes, hours, or days before the event you want the reminder to be sent.

Add reminders to all events on a sub-calendar

If you want to be alerted for all events on certain sub-calendars, adding reminders event by event can be tedious. In this case, you can set up a reminder for all events on those sub-calendars. This can be done in the Preferences Dialog.

  1. Make sure you are logged into your Teamup account.
  2. From your calendar, select the blue menu button (top right corner).
  3. Select Preferences, then Default Reminders.

    Set a reminder for all events on a selected sub-calendar.
    Choose Default Reminders to set up a sub-calendar event reminder.
  4. In the Reminders screen, click on the Edit icon (it looks like a pencil) for the desired sub-calendar.
  5. Add one or multiple reminders and specify the timing for each one.
    • These reminders will be enabled for all current and future events on that sub-calendar.
    • Reminders for time-specific events and all-day events need to be specified separately. As you can see in the screenshot below, the Event Reminders section sets reminders for time-specific events, and the section below it, All-Day Event Reminders, sets reminders for all-day events.
  6. Select X to delete any event reminder.
  7. Select Save to complete the process. Default Reminders

Important to know

  • Reminders are currently only supported on the web client. Support for reminders on mobile apps will be added in the future.
  • Currently, reminders are delivered by email only. More delivery options will be added in the future.
  • To work around the current lack of support for mobile push notifications, you may like to consider this approach: Subscribe to your Teamup Calendar from another calendar application, for example, Apple iCal, Google Calendar or Outlook. Then, enable reminders for the subscribed calendar in that third-party application.
  • An alternative to reminders is the Daily Agenda feature, which is an email sent every morning that lists all the events for the current day. Read more.
  • Teamup also supports Change Notifications which alert you when changes occur in your calendar. Read more.
