We present MaskReminder, an automatic mask-wearing status estimation system based on smartwatches, to remind users who may be exposed to the COVID-19 virus transmission scenarios, to wear a mask. MaskReminder with the powerful MLP-Mixer deep learning model can effectively learn long-short range information from the inertial measurement unit readings, and can recognize the mask-related hand movements such as wearing a mask, lowering the metal strap of the mask, removing the strap from behind one side of the ears, etc. Extensive experiments on 20 volunteers and 8000+ data samples show that the average recognition accuracy is 89 to wear with a success rate of 90
