I redesigned WhatsApp by introducing a “Remind Me” feature that helps users save important messages and receive reminders at the right time.
The problem was that important messages often get buried in busy chats, forcing users to rely on screenshots, starred messages, or external reminder apps. Through user research, I found that both professionals and students struggle to keep track of deadlines, meeting links, assignments, and follow-ups inside WhatsApp.
To solve this, I designed a simple reminder flow directly within the app:
Long press any message
Select “Remind Me Later”
Choose a date and time
Receive a private notification linked back to the original message
I also introduced a dedicated “Reminders” section where users can view, edit, and manage all saved reminders in one place.
This redesign focuses on reducing cognitive load, improving productivity, and keeping users inside the WhatsApp ecosystem instead of switching to external note-taking or reminder apps. The final experience is lightweight, intuitive, and seamlessly integrated into WhatsApp’s existing interaction patterns.
