Anyone else here using GPT Scheduled Tasks? ✅
by•
For those who haven't tried it yet — it's a new feature in GPT-4o that lets the chatbot proactively message you at scheduled times. Just type something like "Remind me to check my email tomorrow at 10 am," and it will set the reminder for you automatically. When the time comes, you'll get a push notification or an email with the message.
Examples I've successfully tested:
📌 Evening task status check:
Every evening at 9 pm, send me my weekly tasks and ask for a status update.🚀 Weekly Product Hunt summaries:
Every Friday at 10 am, send summaries of the top 5 Product Hunt launches this week.📈 Daily market summaries:
Every morning at 9 am, send me summaries of BTC, ETH, gold, and S&P500 prices with daily changes.📚 Daily learning sessions:
Split "Prompt engineering" into 10 parts and send one part daily at 8:30 am with a practical exercise.🗣 Daily vocabulary:
Every morning at 7:30 am, send 10 new C1-level English words with context examples.✨ Morning affirmations:
Every morning at 7 am, send me this affirmation: {Your affirmation text}.✏️ Content reminders:
Every Tuesday and Thursday at 11 am, remind me to tweet. Provide 5 draft ideas.Currently tricky prompt but promising:
Daily metrics monitoring from external docs (Notion, Sheets).
What creative ways can you imagine using GPT Tasks?
And have you tried this feature?

I use basic calendar alerts for this, not sure how it's a timesave in GPT unless you're one of those folks that's really trying to dump their whole OS to strictly interact w/a chatbot? 😂 I also like @Reclaim for things that I really want to have a blocked time slot -- it dynamically moves items on your calendar based on priority and your current bookings.
@leah_madden Me too. I do not use every prompt I have noted above, just tested
But cases with English and Task Tracking work well for me, its like a personal everyday coach
Oh, I didn’t know this existed! I’ll start with the market summary and everyday vocabulary right away. Thanks for sharing!
@kay_arkain welcome 🫡🫡🫡
I personaly depend on Google calendar. I am Supriesd GPT is doing these things Scheduled task , GPT will be Useful Automate the workflow.
but how to use them ?
@isha_nasir Here's how to use
1️⃣ Make sure you're on GPT-4o with scheduled tasks model (Plus, Team, or Pro plan).
2️⃣ Just type your task with time in the chat, like:
“Remind me tomorrow at 10am to check my inbox”
3️⃣ GPT will detect the time and set a task automatically.
4️⃣ At that time, you’ll get a push notification + email with the reminder.
You can check and manage tasks in the “Tasks” section (top-right menu).

I use ChatGPT a lot in my daily work for braindrops - just telling it what I'm working on, options i'm pondering, things I learned, etc. Then I have a weekly scheduled task:
Every Monday, at 7am, based on my ChatGPT history of last week, send me a recap of what I have been working on, check in on anything that still seems like a loose end, and what main main focus points should be for maximum impact. Also output a bullet list at the end with ideas that I haven't considered yet, but that you think could help me achieve my objectives better.
Pretty fresh, so still tbd how to make this more useful.
@ramin ow thanks for this use case, never thought about it
@ramin This prompt works only in particular chat?
Or you can add this GPT Task into project and it replies with all the project summary?

@ilia_productdesigner It works across my entire ChatGPT history (possibly excluding projects though, I haven't tested that). So it reviews all of my ChatGPT chats since the last weekly review and creates this report for me.
@ramin ow really?
Cause I thought GPT do not store info across chats if you do not tell him REMEMBER PLS

@ilia_productdesigner Just see for yourself - try this prompt now: "give me recap of what I have been working on in the last 7 days, check in on anything that still seems like a loose end, and what main main focus points should be for maximum impact. Also output a bullet list at the end with ideas that I haven't considered yet, but that you think could help me achieve my objectives better."
It remembers a lot of things that I didn't ask it to remember. Weirdly it occasionally also adds things that I stopped working on (and never mentioned again), months ago, AND skips some things I DID work on within the last 7 days. So by no means a perfect system, but overall it's still good enough for me to be valuable.

@ramin I see you've established yourself in the future. This sounds great, thanks for sharing, I'm interested to try
I didn’t know this was a thing, thank you for sharing, Ilia!
I’ll definitely give it a try. I think I’ll start with morning affirmations and content reminders!
Thanks again!
@morgane_prr welcome 🫡
This opens up so many use cases…
I’ve been using GPT Scheduled Tasks for a while now, and it’s such a time-saver! ✅ Here’s how I’m making the most of it:
📅 Daily APK Updates: Every morning at 8 am, I get a reminder to update my app database on chatgptmodapk.com, ensuring all the latest mod APKs are available for users.
🚗 Task reminders for site management: I’ve set a task to remind me every Wednesday at 3 pm to check for any broken links or outdated content on my site. It helps me maintain a smooth user experience!
I’ve also tried scheduling product summaries from my site, where I can get updates on popular APK games for the week and adjust the content accordingly. It’s incredibly efficient!
Have any of you found any unique ways to leverage this feature yet? I’m curious to hear more creative ideas!
@martin_leo Thanks for sharing 🦄
No, for me, it's too limited and cannot work with my everyday tools. That's why I decided to create my own AI tool to manage scheduled tasks. ;)

@viriava How does your tool work?
@ramin
Describe what you want in natural language.
Agents execute across any Saas and APIs with my approval or without.
Also, I have real-time tracking and automation refinements.
I thought it would need an always-on mode like Alexa or Siri, but for those of us who are mostly facing the screen anyways, that works!
