Reminder Plugin Not Playing Nice with Mobile

JayG · May 9, 2024, 7:04pm

I use Obsidian and the Reminder plugin mostly on my Macbook. Occasionally I open Obsidian on my iPhone or iPad. When I do, I get a wave of current and old reminders in an annoying sequence of popup messages. I seem to get a lot of the same reminders. Does the reminder status not sync between vaults? Is this a limitation in the Reminder Plugin? Or maybe I’m doing something wrong?

Thanks for your help.

Nobody uses the reminder plugin on 2 devices?

Every plugin has a Github page where you can search for existing issues. Here is an open request for that very problem, so it isn’t just you:

github.com/uphy/obsidian-reminder

[Feature]: Allow Obsidian Sync to sync the reminder states before reminding.

### Goal or desired outcome of this feature I use Obsidian on 2 work PCs, one h…ome and one phone. Obsidian Sync is set up on all of them. I would like to be able to check off the reminder once and not have it recur on the other devices when they are first connected, before they have had a chance to sync the new reminder state. ### Describe the feature For my use case, detecting completion of an initial Obsidian sync before starting the overdue checking process would be ideal, but I appreciate not everyone uses Obsidian Sync. Maybe a configurable delay before the initial check? ### Screenshots, mockups, or videos _No response_
