<p>Please, make sure that your phone has no task killers or RAM boosters
installed. These apps are known to disable Loop's reminders. If your phone has
an aggressive power saving mode, such as Samsung's Ultra Power Saving mode or
Sony's Stamina Mode, please make sure that Loop is whitelisted.</p>
<p>There are many reasons why the reminders may not appear:</p>
<ul>
<li>Loop will only show you a reminder if the task has not been already completed
that day. For example, if your reminder is scheduled to show up at 8am, but
you already added a checkmark manually (on the main app) at 7am, then the
reminder will not appear. The same is true for non-daily habits. If you have
a weekly habit, and you complete it on a certain Monday, the reminder will
only appear on the following Monday.</li>
<li>When you create a habit, you can also choose what days are the reminder
allowed to appear. If you create a weekly habit, but set the reminders to
appear only on the weekends, for example, then they will never appear Monday
to Friday, regardless of you having completed the habit during the weekend or
not.</li>
<li>If you are sure that the reminders should appear, but they don't, please,
make sure that your phone has no task killers or RAM boosters installed.
