Clock time is not availability
A 2 p.m. reminder is not useful when 2 p.m. becomes a meeting. Connected calendar context gives Nudge a better picture of when you may be free.
Context-aware reminders
Reminders that account for the day you actually have
Nudge uses calendar context, quiet hours, your chosen times, and learned patterns to find a more usable moment to follow up.
Context-aware does not mean all-knowing. Nudge uses the signals you choose to share and keeps explicit reminder times under your control.
Why it matters
A reminder has to survive real life
Different tasks need different timing
A call, an errand, and a quiet planning task do not belong in the same kind of moment.
Control must stay legible
You can inspect and change tasks, scheduling preferences, quiet hours, and stored memories instead of relying on an opaque feed.
How Nudge helps
From capture to a usable follow-up
- 1
Connect only what is useful
Nudge can use Google Calendar or your device calendar, but calendar connection is optional.
- 2
Protect busy and quiet time
Automatic reminders can wait through calendar events and quiet hours.
- 3
Keep explicit instructions explicit
When you set the time yourself, Nudge treats that as an instruction rather than a suggestion.
Clear limits
What Nudge does not promise
- Calendar availability does not guarantee that you are physically or mentally ready for a task.
- Nudge only has the context you choose to provide and the patterns it can reasonably infer.
- Automatic timing is bounded by your settings and may still need manual adjustment.

Questions
Frequently asked
Does Nudge require calendar access?
No. Calendar connection is optional. Without it, Nudge can still use your task settings and quiet hours.
Can Nudge change calendar events?
Only when you explicitly ask. In supported calendar chat flows, Nudge can create, update, move, or delete an event you request; it does not silently edit your schedule.
What if I set an exact time?
A time you set yourself takes priority over automatic calendar and quiet-hour holds.
