Reminders that ring for everyone
Create a reminder with one or more friends and it rings on every phone at the time you set. If you change the time before it rings, everyone’s alarm moves with it.
Reminders for you and your crew
Tickaboo is a reminder app where a plan like “meet at 9 PM” doesn’t stay a text message. It rings a loud, full-screen alarm on your phone and on your friend’s phone, at exactly the time you picked.
Pick a plan and tap Tick it for both. Sound plays after you tap.
How it rings
What happens behind the scenes when you set a reminder with a friend.
Type what’s happening, pick friends from your contacts, choose the day and time, and how early to ring.
Your friend gets a notification straight away: “Nithin added you to a reminder”. Their phone quietly sets the same alarm.
Both phones ring a full-screen alarm with the Tickaboo tone, even on a locked screen, and it shows in the notification bar too.
Hit On my way so the others know, snooze for 5 minutes, or mark it done.
What’s in the app
Create a reminder with one or more friends and it rings on every phone at the time you set. If you change the time before it rings, everyone’s alarm moves with it.
“Call Mom at 6:30.” Pick the day and time, then choose to ring on time or 5, 15 or 60 minutes early.
A full-screen alarm with its own ringtone, plus Snooze and Done right in the notification bar. If the app is open, it rings on the home screen.
No passwords. Enter your mobile number, type the 6-digit code, add your name and a photo, and you’re in.
Tickaboo checks your contacts and shows which friends are already on the app. Invite the rest with one tap.
Attach a place or your current location. When the alarm rings, one tap opens it in Maps.
Change a reminder any time before it rings. Once it’s done, it moves to the Done tab so your list stays clean.
Tap “On my way” from the ringing screen and everyone else on the reminder gets a notification. If a plan is cancelled, they hear about that too.

The company

Tickaboo is our first product. It’s built in India, for Android first.
Questions

The alarm stops and the reminder moves to your Done tab. Your friends’ reminders stay active until they tick them off too.
