There are two types of Reminders in Slack:

  1. Customized reminders for teams or individuals
  2. Message Reminders for individual messages

To create a custom reminder, type /remind

You can also set a message reminder for a message you have received.  Simply hover a message and click on the three dots, and select Remind me about this and choose your time frame.

Slack will then remind you at this time about the message selected.
