Abstract

A mobile telephone includes a reminder controller. A reminder can be entered either using the phone or using a remote terminal. Each reminder is associated with an event being the start of a particular application, or an event being an identifier in a software application becoming a preset value. The phone operates to detect an application start event, following which it is determined whether a parameter associated with the reminder matches a parameter associated with the application, and announces the reminder as appropriate. In this way, enhanced functionality is provided with the phone, since it is possible to set a reminder to be associated with an event other than the reaching of a particular time and date.
