A reminder at a set time

Every weekday at 4:30 PM a notification reminds you to stand up and stretch.

At 4:30 in the afternoon, Monday to Friday, a notification tells you to take a break. The trigger is a time of day, and the step shows a notification.

  • Another time. Click the time in the When row. Times are 24-hour, so 9 AM is 09:00 and 5 PM is 17:00.

  • Other days. Change the days in the inspector, or remove them all for every day of the week.

  • Your words. Change the title and the text under it in the Do row.

  • Once, not every day. To be reminded once, in 20 minutes or tomorrow at 9, use the Examples group's Remind me in… or see Run later.
