Surely you have a secondary contact, an ex or your own number saved in the phone book to use it for WhatsApp notes. And it is that having a conversation just for you can be very useful: from writing down the shopping list, writing notes or sending audios with ideas, and even sending photos that you can later collect from WhatsApp Web on your computer. Well, now there is a formula to also take advantage of WhatsApp as a reminder tool It's called Hero, and it's your best help so you don't forget anything.
It is a bot or robot that works autonomously and almost automatically Thanks to it, in the same way that bots work In Telegram, you can receive task reminders or anything you have requested. All this in an organic and natural way. Almost like you're talking like an assistant. The grace of all this is that you do not need more applications than WhatsApp. Of course, you will need to initially configure Hero. A simple task that we explain step by step below.
Hero, the WhatsApp reminder bot
It is a bot or robot that works automatically. But for this we must add it as another WhatsApp contact. This way we can start a conversation with him to ask him to do things for us.
That is why the first thing you should do is add Hero to your contact list. Go to the contacts application of your mobile, click on the option to add a new one and write the name Hero (or the one you prefer) and the phone number +1 (716) 309- 4376 Save the contact and open WhatsApp.
Within the messaging application, click on the button to establish a new conversation to search the list of contacts. Here click on the three dots in the upper right corner to find the option update Something that will refresh the contact list to detect Hero. Thus, all that remains is to look for him in the list (you will recognize him by his superhero icon) to start chatting with him.
Here you just need to say “Hello” to activate the robot and start its configuration.It is available in several languages, so you will have to specify how you should use it. The first thing will be to answer with a number according to your time zone. If you do it from Spain you must reply to the first message with “7”. After that, Hero will send you a new message to ask if you want to use it in Spanish or English. Send a “2” if you want it in Spanish. And ready. You can now start using Hero regularly.
How Hero Reminders Work
Hero's strong point is that it is a very versatile robot. So it doesn't matter how you send an order to create a reminder. He learns the time format and the task to remind you automatically. Of course, so that you understand this better what you can do is send the message «see examples«. With this you will receive a new message with different statements that it is able to recognize. You will see that the format of the time or the colloquial of the message does not matter.
You will only have to write a phrase like “Throw out the garbage at 6 pm”, or “8:30 call Juan”. With this, Hero will reply that the reminder has been effectively activated for the agreed time. Thus, when that moment arrives, you will receive a WhatsApp message from Hero reminding you of what you requested
Note that this robot is capable of storing reminders monthly ahead. So if you are proactive you can get a lot out of it. Now, it is better that you be attentive to WhatsApp, otherwise it will be of little use for you to receive reminders by this means.
