LinkedIn Reminders questions and answers
How do I set reminders on LinkedIn?
Install the LinkedIn Reminders Chrome extension. A "Remind me" button appears on LinkedIn profiles, messages, and posts. Click it, choose when you want to be reminded (in 1 hour, tomorrow, next Monday, or a custom date), and the reminder is saved locally.
Can I create reminders for LinkedIn messages?
Yes. Inside any LinkedIn conversation you can click "Remind me" to schedule a reply. When the time comes, the reminder shows up in your Reminders panel with a link back to the message thread.
Can I save LinkedIn profiles for follow-up?
Yes. On any LinkedIn profile, click "Remind me" to save it with a follow-up date. Your reminder includes the profile name and link so you can pick up the conversation later.
Does LinkedIn Reminders store my data?
All reminders are stored locally in your browser using Chrome storage. Nothing is sent to a server. There is no account, no CRM sync, and no third-party tracking.
Is LinkedIn Reminders free?
Yes. The extension is free to install from the Chrome Web Store.
Can I create follow-up sequences?
Yes. Sequences let you queue a series of steps — an invitation, a comment, a message — with wait times between each. Use them for warm intros, recruiter outreach, or any repeatable LinkedIn workflow.
Does it work on the LinkedIn mobile app?
The extension runs in Chrome on desktop. It works on linkedin.com in any Chromium-based browser (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc).
Is this affiliated with LinkedIn?
No. LinkedIn Reminders is an independent Chrome extension. LinkedIn is a trademark of LinkedIn Corporation.
Why did the Remind me button disappear after a LinkedIn update?
LinkedIn changes its page layout from time to time. Reload the tab first. If the button is still missing, check that the extension is enabled under chrome://extensions and update it from the Chrome Web Store. If it still fails, report it through the support form so the extension can be adjusted.
Do my reminders sync between computers?
No. Reminders live in Chrome storage on the computer where you created them. That keeps them private, but it also means a reminder set on your laptop will not appear on your work desktop.
What happens to my reminders if I uninstall the extension?
Uninstalling removes the extension's local storage, so your saved reminders are deleted. Finish or note any open follow-ups before removing it.
Can a sales team share reminders?
Not today. Each person installs the extension and keeps their own private list. Teams that need shared pipelines usually pair a CRM with personal reminders for day-to-day LinkedIn replies.
Does the extension send messages for me?
No. It never sends invitations, messages, or comments automatically. It only reminds you, and you decide what to write and when. That is different from automated outreach tools, which can put your LinkedIn account at risk.
