SpeakAlert: Voice Reminder

Reminders that actually speak to you. Record your own voice or type a message — SpeakAlert says it out loud at the right time, alarm-style, even when your phone is locked. Silent notifications are easy to ignore. A voice isn't.

A reminder you can't swipe away and forget

Perfect for medicines, habits, appointments and everything your future self needs to hear.

Your Own Voice

Record a quick voice note — "take your tablet", "call mom" — and hear exactly what you recorded at the scheduled time.

Text-to-Speech

Type it, and your phone speaks it. Fast talking reminders powered by your device's TTS engine — no recording needed.

Alarm-Style Alerts

Reminders play out loud at the scheduled time, even when your device is locked or the app is in the background.

Flexible Repeats

Daily, weekly, monthly and custom schedules — built for medicines, habits, routines and recurring tasks.

Custom Sounds

Use music or audio files from your phone as reminder alerts, alone or combined with voice and TTS.

Smart Snooze & History

Snooze easily when you need more time, and review missed reminders anytime so nothing slips through.

Why SpeakAlert?

Standard reminder apps drop a silent notification in your tray — and by evening it's buried under twenty others. SpeakAlert takes a different approach: it says your reminder out loud, like a talking alarm. When your phone announces "take your medicine" in your own voice, you don't scroll past it.

SpeakAlert combines three kinds of alerts: voice recordings (hear exactly what you recorded), text-to-speech (type it, your phone speaks it) and custom audio (use any music or sound file). Schedule them once or on daily, weekly, monthly and custom repeats — ideal for medicines, habits, appointments, and reminders for family members who find phones hard to read.

And like every GhostGram Labs app, it's a personal side project that respects you: completely free, no ads, no account, fully offline. Your recordings and reminders never leave your device.
