The commercial for the My Li'l Reminder starts off with a clip of someone's senile grandma lost in a parking lot, trying to find her car. Not only does she seem to lack her memory, but also basic problem-solving skills to figure out where her car might be. But have no fear, thanks to the My Li'l Reminder, she is now able to remember where her car is and start driving again... so long as she doesn't go on to forget that she's driving.
- That is, of course, if the product even works. Several consumer comments have complained that the playback is so garbled and faint that they nearly have to shove it in their ear to be able to hear anything. This may be why the thing is also advertised as "unobtrusive" and something that "won't bother the people sitting around you".
- So, if people with memory problems remember that they have a Li'l Reminder…
- One of its suggested uses is to put it on the fridge and use it as a message center. As this YouTuber points out, it's not hard for the tech-unsavvy or the inattentive to accidentally record over the single message it can hold, replacing it with blank or white noise, or what if someone comes along to record a new message and doesn't bother to check for an existing message first? Only one message can be held on the device at a time, which means if you only have one of these things, you'll only be able to post one audio message on the fridge at a time. At this point, you might as well just use sticky notes.
