TaskCue: Unignorable Desktop Reminders - A portable reminder app that pops up in the middle of scree
by•
Stop missing deadlines because notifications hide quietly in the corner of your screen. This ultra-lightweight, portable utility forces your attention by popping up reminders right in the front-center of your screen alongside a native Windows system alert sound. Zero installation required—just unzip, run, and stay on top of your tasks.

Honestly the front-center popups sound really useful, but i'd love to see a snooze option built in, like maybe 5 or 10 minutes, so i can push a reminder back without having to close it completely and risk forgetting.
@caner48qs yes that is possible
the center-screen takeover is exactly what i needed after missing too many deadlines. one thing that would make it even better: a snooze option that lets me push a reminder back 5 or 10 minutes without dismissing it entirely. sometimes i am mid-deep-work and just need a small buffer
@yiitsapolub75v yes it is possible in The app
Would love to see a recurring reminder option for tasks that happen at the same time every day or week, so I don't have to keep setting them up manually. Maybe even let the popup stay on screen until I actually acknowledge it by clicking a done button.
@sibelkdrw4ar yes it is exist in the app
A sync option with Google Calendar or Outlook would be huge, so I don't have to manually re-enter tasks across tools. Could you add that?
@serafettin39697 you can add the time you want like calendar
Love that it stays portable instead of forcing an install, perfect for keeping on a USB drive. The choice to pop center-screen instead of letting reminders hide in the corner is a really thoughtful fix for a problem most of us just put up with.
The front-center popup is genuinely hard to ignore, which is exactly what I needed for those small tasks I keep pushing off. Glad it runs straight from a folder without installing anything.
The center popup idea is great, but I really wish there was an option to make it stay put until I physically click "done." Right now I just hit escape to dismiss it and end up forgetting the task anyway. A snooze button would be nice too, something like a quick 5 or 10 minute delay for when I'm in the middle of something and truly can't switch context.
finally something that actually cuts through my focus mess when im neck deep in spreadsheets, the popup lands dead center and the system sound is a nice touch too.
