Since the C2 lacks a notification LED, (and even if it did), having an option to repeat uncleared notifications would be a really useful feature.
I’m not one of those people whose phone never leaves their hands… sometimes I might not wake the phone for days. So unless I specifically look, I can easily miss a text, or a call, or even a calendar reminder.
It seems it would be really useful to be able to have the handset periodically vibrate, or play a notification tone, if there is some uncleared notification.
In an ideal world…
- play a unique sound, so it’s obviously a reminder
- choose trigger events between call/text/email/calendar etc.
- choose an alert rate e.g. 15/30/60 minutes
Maybe there’s an app which already does something similar, but if there is, I didn’t find it. I might even try to write one if I had some time and a clue where to start. On the desktop, some simple cronjob would get the job done.
This isn’t android/ios, so there doesn’t seem to be a drive to have users keep their phones in front of their face 24/7, but it’s hard to disconnect if you have that nagging feeling you might have missed a message.
