Set up multiple reminders by default
Within Business Calendar you can set up multiple reminders for an event but this needs to be manually done each time. With Google Calendar you can set events to automatically have multiple reminders.
Two examples of the use case:
- I often set up meetings so I want a reminder a week beforehand and then one on the day
- More realistically, I have ADHD - as do around 10% of the population - and time blindness is definitely a thing, so I really benefit from setting both a popup reminder and an email reminder just before each meeting. Every little helps!

Hello, I am new here.

In the settings only one reminder can be set as standard. However, you can workaround with templates and set up multiple reminder times and- if necessary set such template as standard for new events. Alternatively you can also choose template selection to start with when adding new events. See: setting -> views -> create & edit -> when creating new events open -> template selection at start.

Hello and sorry for my English and very bad so it's best that I write in French.
Small suggestion "improvement" (already because what you offer is great!): When program an appointment, you can ensure that one can choose several (not one at a time) recall , for example 15 mins 30 mins + etc. Etc. Before please?
Thanking you in advance and thank you for this calendar handy!
Cordially. -

To simplify all this, it would be really useful to be able to set multiple reminders as standard in the settings.
Use case :
Add reminder - ok
And get reminded about the event as configured (in my case : 1 week, 1 day, 1 hour before).
BTW : Google calendar already allows to do that.
Thanks and keep up the great work! -

Ich finde die gleichzeitige Auswahl mehrerer Erinnerungszeiten sehr sinnvoll und kenne sie von einem ZTE Axon 7 mini. Dort war es im Betriebssystem integriert.

Ich sehe das genau so wie Hank zuvor. In meinem Fall würde es "schon" reichen wenn es anstelle des Togglebutton in der Auswahlliste ein Checkbutton wäre (Ich weiß, das ist mehr Arbeit als nur das Objekt zu tauschen ;-) aber ich glaube das lohnt sich )
Das gleiche gilt natürlich auch für die Erinnerungen in Aufgaben
Beste Grüße

Ich möchte gerne mehrere Erinnerungen auf einmal eingeben können.
Beispiel: Ich möchte a) am Termin selbst, b) eine Stunde vorher, c) einen Tag vorher d) drei Tage vorher und e) eine Woche vorher an einen Termin erinnert werden.
Und ich möchte das nicht so umständlich eingeben müssen wie jetzt:
Erinnerung hinzufügen - zu Beginn des Termins - ok -
Erinnerung hinzufügen - eine Stunde vorher - ok -
Erinnerung hinzufügen - einen Tag vorher - ok -
Erinnerung hinzufügen - drei Tage vorher - ok
Erinnerung hinzufügen - eine Woche vorher - ok -
-- Sondern:
Erinnerung hinzufügen - *alle* Zeitpunkte eingeben - ok.
Das wäre wirklich sehr hilfreich.I would like to be able to enter several reminders at once.
Example: I want to be reminded a) on the appointment itself, b) one hour before, c) one day before, d) three days before and e) one week before an appointment.
And I don't want to have to enter it as cumbersome as I do now:
Add reminder - at the beginning of the appointment - ok -
Add reminder - one hour before - ok -
Add reminder - one day before - ok -
Add reminder - three days before - ok
Add a reminder - one week before - ok -
-- But..:Add reminder - enter all reminders - ok.
That would be really helpful. -

Simply, when adding reminder to new event, allow tapping multiple reminder times at once, then just press OK.
Currently, if I want to add two reminders to event (for example 1 hour before and another 10 minutes before), I have to do Add reminder -> choose time -> OK -> Add reminder -> choose time -> OK
Not that it is big task to do, but I don't see reason why reminder-window could not allow checking both "1 hour" and "10 minutes" (or 3 or 4 reminders if someone wants) at once.
