OhMemo

Chances are you forget about important events in your schedule, especially if there’s a lot on your plate on a daily basis. If your work involves using a computer, you might want to know there are various methods to keep your memory fresh. A suitable example is to configure reminders, and you can use OhMemo for this task.

You first need to go through a setup process to ensure the proper functionality of the application. On the other hand, it doesn’t make changes to system registry entries, so you can just as well deploy it on a thumb drive in case you need to use it on other computers. Just make sure that the target PC is fitted with .NET Framework.

It all starts in a simple window, with a large, empty field at first. There’s a link which shows you the way to create memos, which mostly requires you to write down a name in the given field. The window then expands to comfortably write the content of the memo, and compacts whenever you exit edit mode to save space.

The application offers a decent variety of options when it comes to editing, just to help you highlight important parts in your notes. Styles make it possible to use different heading types, bold, underline, italic, and more, but there are no options to add bullets, or change the color and size of the text, even though styles can be applied selectively throughout content.

Multiple notes can be created, and these all end up on the list until removed. You can structure them according to importance, and change the view to simple, and compact mode, whereas the latter mode displays time and date. Sadly, you can’t set up audio alerts, but notes can be fitted with file attachments from your computer.

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that OhMemo is a reliable application which provides an intuitive, practical environment in which to store important notes and ideas. Although no alerts can be configured, frequently checking the list can save the day.
