Meeting Reminder App That Turns Calendar Events Into Real Alarms

Most calendar apps rely on simple notifications to remind you about meetings. These notifications are easy to swipe away or ignore. OnTimer is a calendar alarm app that turns your calendar events into persistent alarms so meetings never sneak up on you.

Why Calendar Reminders Fail

Calendar notifications often fail because they are passive. When you're focused on work or switching between tasks, a small notification is easy to miss. Many professionals discover they are late to meetings simply because they dismissed the reminder without realizing it.

How OnTimer Fixes This

OnTimer is a calendar alarm app that connects to your calendar and creates a real alarm before your meeting begins. Instead of a quiet notification, you receive an alert that is designed to get your attention.

Key benefits include:

  • Persistent alarms before meetings
  • Multiple calendar support
  • Business hours filtering
  • Time-to-leave alerts based on location and traffic
