Reminders
Reminders surface time-based nudges on the mirror and can be managed with Hey Piper once voice is configured.
Create a reminder (UI)
- Open Reminders from the dashboard or Settings → Reminders.
- Tap New reminder.
- Enter title and date/time (or relative time like “in 30 minutes”).
- Choose repeat (none / daily / weekdays) if available.
- Save — confirm it appears in the list ordered by due time.
Voice
See Voice commands → Reminders. Examples:
- “Hey Piper, remind me to [stretch] in [15 minutes].”
💡 Tip: Keep reminder titles short — they render large on glass from a distance.
Notifications
- Open Settings → Reminders → Alerts.
- Choose fullscreen toast, chime, or silent banner (build-dependent).
- On shared mirrors, avoid loud chimes at night — use quiet hours.
⚠️ Warning: Do not rely on a smart mirror for medical emergencies — use proper alarms and phones for critical medication.
Troubleshooting
Reminder fired at wrong time
Time zone mismatch — fix under Settings → Region & time.
No sound
HDMI audio routing — test speaker-test on the Pi or switch alert style to visual-only.
