Hello I’m not so sure how to describe my issue, but here it goes.
I’ve been using Vikunja for a little while and I’ve encountered an issue where I cannot make the reminders work. I open the task, click “add reminder” then set the date/time. Then when the reminder is supposed to go, nothing happens. I thought I had missed them or maybe Windows 10 hid the desktop notifications for some reason, but I can almost rule that out.
I recently upgraded to v0.21/v0.21 but I’ve been setting up reminders for quite some time and I don’t remember them ever working. I honestly don’t know what I’m missing here.
Currently only email reminders are supported. You might need to enable them in Vikunja’s settings though.
It kind of makes sense then. I use Vikunja with a one-user local setup, I don’t need emails (and I don’t even know how to set it up). I’ll just not use it the function then.
Thanks.
Sorry for breaking into this issue, but do I read it correctly that reminders don’t show a notification in the web UI or via the notifications API?
That’s correct. Currently only email reminders are available.
Hi, now we are in middle of 2026 and still the reminder is just work for email(I even didn’t test it, cuz it’s not important for me).
The simple thing we need is to push notification for browser at least for single setup using docker.
