Reminder Toast 2.0.1

Fixed
Settings text color: some rows in the settings tab showed dark, hard-to-read text in the default Obsidian themes. This affected "Show a test toast", "Show a test lead-up toast", "Show a test pop-out toast", "Open calendar" and "Copy code for a calendar in a note". These rows, and the group headings, now follow the active theme's text color in both light and dark mode.
Inline calendar background: the background image for the calendar embedded in a note is now applied correctly.

Reminder Toast 2.0.0

Reminder Toast 2.0.0

Create reminders with dates, times and repeats, and get customizable toast notifications when they come due. Includes a calendar for the sidebar, for notes, and for its own window.

Requires: Obsidian 1.13.0 or newer, desktop only (Windows, macOS, Linux).

Highlights

Reminders

• Reminders with a title, message, date, time and an optional linked note
• Repeats: daily, weekdays, weekly on chosen days, monthly, yearly, or every N days, weeks, months or years, with an optional end date
• Lead-up notifications: heads-up toasts before a reminder is due, set in hours and minutes
• Snooze, mark done, and "Create similar" to copy an existing reminder
• Missed reminders can show when Obsidian starts

Toasts

• Flashing toast with Done, Snooze and Open note buttons
• Customizable text with placeholders like {{title}}, {{time}}, {{relative}} and {{lead}}
• Position, auto dismiss, flash, accent color, chime and optional system notifications
• Desktop toasts: when Obsidian is behind other apps or minimized, an always-on-top toast appears on the screen Obsidian is on

Notes and files

• Inline reminders: - [ ] Task @remind(2026-10-02 09:00) in any note, with @repeat(...), @before(...) and #tags
• Checking the box in a note completes the reminder, and completing it in the plugin checks the box
• An editable reminders file that lists every reminder

Calendar

• Sidebar month calendar with today highlighted and colored dots for each reminder
• Embed it in any note with a reminder-calendar code block, including inside columns, with tag filters
• Pop it out into its own window, keep it on top, and use the compact window with built-in window buttons
• Background images and animated GIFs, set separately for the sidebar and notes
• Per-reminder colors, colored tags, and automatic colors

Settings

• Every setting shows up in Obsidian's settings search

Install

Until it's in the Community plugins directory, install it by hand:

1. Download main.js, manifest.json and styles.css from the assets below.
2. Put them in .obsidian/plugins/reminder-toast/ inside your vault.
3. In Obsidian, go to Settings > Community plugins and turn on Reminder Toast.

Notes

• Desktop only: desktop toasts and the pop-out window controls use Electron, which isn't available in Obsidian for iOS and Android.
• Network use: the plugin only connects to the internet if you set a calendar background to a web address. Nothing is ever sent.
• No telemetry, ads or account. The plugin only reads and writes files inside your vault.
