# MessageReminderHeader

Renders the reminder header in [`MessageList`](/chat/docs/sdk/react-native/ui-components/message-list/). This is the default component for the [`MessageReminderHeader`](/chat/docs/sdk/react-native/core-components/channel#messagereminderheader/) prop.

## Best Practices

- Keep reminder copy concise and scannable.
- Preserve translation keys for reminder state and duration text.
- Avoid expensive computations in the header render.
- Keep visual style aligned with other message headers.
- Override via `Channel` prop for centralized customization.

## Props

`MessageReminderHeader` accepts optional derived values when overridden:

| Prop                 | Description                                  | Type      |
| -------------------- | -------------------------------------------- | --------- |
| `timeLeftMs`         | Remaining reminder duration in milliseconds. | `number`  |
| `isReminderTimeLeft` | Whether reminder time is still remaining.    | `boolean` |
