Alarm every X days for Android
-
Hello!
I've been quite desperate looking for something as simple as an alarm every X days for Android. I recently got an XPERIA NEO and something I used to do with an old Nokia with the built-in alarm, I haven't been able to do it with Android with several programs downloaded...
I've managed to set up Google Calendar to send me a reminder every X days, yes. But I'm interested in having an alarm, something loud and persistent that you realize the mobile is alerting you. Because the way I have it now, until I look at the phone, I don't realize I had the alert today.
Has anyone with more experience than me had this problem? Any solution?
Regards!

When you say X days, do you mean all Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays for example?

With HTC Sense, you do that with normal alarms, you just have to choose which days you want it to sound on the same screen where you set the alarm time... Your problem is that you have a Sony and maybe that option is not included in the alarms

With the nexus I have, I have, for example, one alarm from Monday to Thursday and another for the rest or alternate days, you can do this, I think you can do it with any android, when you go into clock, alarm and you have set the alarm, you press repeat and it shows you the days to choose from.

I think he means that an alarm pops up every 4 days, for example. I don't know of any program that does this, but there should be something.

as kynes says. I'm interested in an alarm that goes off every 20 days, regardless of whether it's Monday, Tuesday, or if the month has more or fewer days. Just that it goes off every 20 days.
For now, I still can't find anything. I have found many examples of repeating alarms on Mondays and Tuesdays, but that's not what I'm looking for.
Best regards!

I'm still the same… does anyone know anything about this? Try setting an alarm every 20 days on your Android to see if you can do it. If you can do it, tell me how

Best regards!

Up Up I am still interested in the topic…
I have updated to Android 2.3.3 but nothing has changed with the alarms, only the interface a little... aish
I hope for help!!
Regards!

Well, I found something that I think works pretty well.
It's called Nudnik Lite. What it does is sound an alarm every time there's an event on the google calendar. It keeps ringing until you turn it off. But I'm still open to something more direct, that doesn't depend on the calendar and stuff; but rather a countdown every 28 days.
Best regards!!

Important update from my side, but at the time I was amazed that this function (so simple at first glance) was impossible to perform in a simple and automatic way.
Since I have had to mess around with multiple calendar apps in recent weeks, in one of them I found a function that reminded me of this post.
It is Gemini Calendar (Gemini Calendar - Android Apps on Google Play) and it allows exactly that, to repeat an event every X days until a certain date or X times.
I hope that although XaviJS has found an alternative solution, this can help someone with the same problem.
Best regards

Any solution is appreciated!
In the end I opted to put an event in the Google calendar and have it send me a reminder in the email, in addition to a small sound alarm. It's not a full-fledged alarm but it has worked well for me.
Best regards!
