Home Features WhatsApp Reminders
Every reminder app waits for you to open it. Poko is a contact in your WhatsApp: text him the thing you'll forget, and he pokes you about it in the chat you already have open.
opens WhatsApp with your first message already typed
Every reminder app waits for you to open it. With Poko you text one line on WhatsApp, for example “remind me to call mom tomorrow at 6pm” (a one-off, in plain words) or “standup every weekday at 9:30am” (recurring: daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, weekdays), and he replies within seconds with exactly what he understood. There is no format to learn, nothing to install and no account to create. Poko works out your timezone from your phone number's country the first time you message, and every confirmation shows the local time so you can see he read it right. Send list to see what's pending, cancel 2 to drop one, and timezone Dubai when you travel. The first 7 days are free with everything included, then a small subscription, from ₹59 a month in India.
Nothing to memorise. These are real messages, and the way you'd have phrased them instead works too.

Poko works out your timezone from your phone number's country the first time you message, and every confirmation shows the local time so you can see he read it right. Travelling? Text “timezone Dubai” and every reminder from then on runs on your clock, not the one you set it in.
Daily meds, weekly reports, rent on the 1st, a birthday every year: say “every…” once and it keeps coming. Anything faster than daily can be pinned to an active window, so “every 2 hours” doesn't wake you at 3am.
No. You can star a message or pin a chat, but nothing inside WhatsApp will message you at a set time. A reminder bot like Pokobot is what adds that. Because it's a normal WhatsApp chat, there's nothing to install.
Text Poko the reminder in plain English, for example “remind me to call mom tomorrow at 6pm”. He confirms the exact time back to you, and the reminder arrives as a WhatsApp message at that moment.
Yes: daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, weekdays only, or every few hours. Say it the way you'd say it out loud, like “standup every weekday at 9:30am” or “rent on the 1st of every month”. Anything faster than daily can be held to an active window so it pauses overnight.
Follow up in the same chat. “Actually make it 7pm” moves the one you just set. “List” shows everything pending with a number against it, and “cancel 2” drops one.
It's inferred from your phone number's country when you first message, and you can change it any time by sending “timezone <city>”, for example “timezone Dubai”.
Pokobot is free to try for 7 days with everything included. After that it's a small subscription, from ₹59/month in India.
The button opens WhatsApp with your first message already typed. Send it, and the first 7 days are on us.
