Reliable notifier with web interface
« on: November 13, 2020, 01:41 PM »
Hello!

Do you know any reliable notifier with web interface?

I am looking to set notifications of events in a website and these will translate into alarms in my android phone.

Is that possible?

Thanks!

PS: Google Calendar is not very good, for some reason I do not hear any alarms

On your Android device, go to search and say "OK Google" (or tap the microphone icon) followed by something like:

"Set alarm for 3 hours."
"Set reminder for November 16th at 3 PM."

Always found Thunderbird with Lightning add-on worked fine.

1. Download this and set as your Default Alarm Sound.
2. Turn the Alarm volume up to maximum.
