Doesn't work for me

Overall:

It seems that this program can't handle high resolution laptop monitors...my resolution is at 1920 by 1200 and the right side of the main interface window is cut-off and inaccessible. I can just see it but can't access any of the note/reminder options on the right side of the window. Maybe it's just my computer but based on that I wouldn't recommend this program.

I have used WinAlarm for quite a while and find it a great help. It sends me to bed, reminds me to put out the rubbish and check the bank each week, as well as reminding me of any one-off items I would otherwise forget. Strongly recommended.

New version is not as good as the old ones, right click in the system tray brings trouble in new version.

I've been through numerous programs looking for something small, quick-loading and easy to use. I just wanted a reminder system without any additional unwanted frills. This program is perfect. It does what it says, the interface is very intuitive and easy to use. One downfall I have, however, is that I couldn't import my v1.1.0.103 alarms into the new v1.2.0. Other than that, this program delivers and it does it well. Looking forward to any future releases from this author.

Just an excellent program. I have it on all the computers that I use, home or away. It's especially useful to cognitively challenged folks, like me.

Lacks features, but overall great

Does what it says on the tin. Just type in those "easy to forget" things to do, and Winalarm will remind you with an alarm and if you want it will remind you again and again. The interface is really cool, extremely easy to use. However could do with more features, such a static calender which is always displayed, for a monthly view to see summary of reminders. I love Winalarm anyway.
