# Snooze on your terms
> Precise snooze control from the notification banner or inside the app. Your schedule, your rules.
Why should an app decide how long you need to snooze? Real life doesn't work in neat 5-minute intervals. Maybe you need 22 minutes because that's when your meeting ends. Maybe 91 minutes because that's when your laundry is done. Oakminder gives you that control.
Snooze directly from the notification banner without unlocking your phone or opening the app. Or open the app and use the custom picker to set the exact minutes you need. Either way, the snooze syncs across all your devices instantly. One action, done.
No other reminder app lets you snooze with custom durations directly from a notification. That's the feature i built this app around.
## How it works
}>
When your reminder fires, a notification appears on your lock screen or notification center.
}>
Long-press the notification (or swipe down on it) to reveal the snooze action buttons.
}>
Choose from your configured presets. The reminder reschedules automatically.
## Default snooze presets
Oakminder comes with five quick-tap presets on your notifications:
| Duration | When to use |
| ---------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| 5 minutes | Quick pause, you'll get to it right away |
| 15 minutes | Short delay for finishing a task |
| 30 minutes | Need a bit more time |
| 1 hour | Busy right now, remind me later |
| 2 hours | Push it to the afternoon or evening |
These are starting points. If none of them fit, the custom picker inside the app lets you set any number of minutes you want.
You can customize which snooze durations appear on your notifications. Go to **Settings > Snooze Presets** to configure your preferred options.
## Why snooze from notifications?
Other reminder apps make you unlock your phone, open the app, find the reminder, and then reschedule it. That's four steps when you're already busy.
With Oakminder, you long-press the notification, tap a duration, and you're done. Two seconds, back to what you were doing. You never leave the lock screen.
Snooze presets apply to all notifications globally because of how phone notification systems work. You can change which presets appear in **Settings > Snooze Presets**.
snooze works whether your reminder fires as a notification or a native alarm. either way, one tap and you're back on track.
## Custom snooze picker
The presets cover common situations, but your schedule isn't always common. Open Oakminder, tap the reminder, and use the **custom snooze wheel picker** to set the exact minutes you need. 3 minutes, 47 minutes, 2 hours and 15 minutes. Whatever works for your situation.
Snooze from the notification or from the app. Either way, it syncs across every device you own in real time. One snooze action and all your devices are up to date.
