How precise is the Text reminder

Hello, I was a subscribed user a year ago but 'had' to switch to Remember The Milk (RTM) because Toodledo lacked a good Android App.

During that time, the Text message (to phone) reminder wasn't very precise as there was 15-30 minutes windows of getting a message.

Has that changed? There seems to be a fairly good Android App now for Toodledo (called Due Today) but I want to be sure the text reminder feature has been improved before I subscribe again.

One good thing about RTM is that their text reminders are very precise, down to the minute.

Thanks...

The preciseness of all alarms is still dependent on the external implementations of where the alarm is going. We send the alarms at the appropriate time with a +/-2 minute accuracy. After that, it depends on your cellphone company. Cellphone carriers do not give any guarantee on the timely delivery of text messages. I have personally had text messages arrive hours after the person sent them. We cannot control what happens to the alarm after we hand it off to a 3rd party.
