They say time is is the most valuable resources. Right now, time feels quicker for me these days and I often lose track of it.
Because of that the app should have the same purposes as an old clock, it plays a little “ding” or a notification every 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 1 hour, or as long as I like.
Preferably installable with f-droid, can I have an app recommendation.

I use Due on iOS for repeating timers/reminders where I need it to be persistent and annoying because the task is important. Like paying rent, or physical therapy “homework” I kept forgetting. The persistence might be good if you’re worried you’ll just dismiss a normal alarm or forget to start the next timer.
Probably called cockoo clock or pomodoro timer, or interval timer. A quick search shows there are multiple such apps, I haven’t tried them so I’m not sure which to recommend.
Any app that you can setup Macros with. I use Macrodroid on Playstore.
OpenHIIT is a workout timer I’ve used before. It can handle a simple auto repeating timer.
Maybe you could try Pomodoro? It splits up your time into 25 min chunks, and then you take a break and decide what to do next.
Reminds me of the character White Rose from Mr. Robot. Here’s the introduction scene.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
i can’t personally recommend it, as i just found it, but ‘mindful notifier’ on f-droid appears to do what you’re looking for.
Self hosted n8n instance. Tie it to everything. Live the dream. Automate everything
They asked for an app for their phone, you suggested setting up a home server and hosting an application on it, all to just send a notification every 30 mins
That’s not particularly helpful
Gotta live and have fun too. I’m pretty sure anyone can see it’s not helpful. I’m sure anyone can see I’m just having a laugh. It’s an easy “move on” scenario. Or… I could get all upset.
Cuckoo Hourly Chime - A Clock App with Customizable Sounds and Speaking Time
Cuckoo Hourly Chime is an Android application developed by Dev Technosoft that functions as a clock app with customizable sounds and speaking time. The app is categorized under Lifestyle and is available for free.
This clock app offers a variety of features such as more than 10 inbuilt sounds that play every half and full hour, including the option to speak time with a custom title. Users can also choose the hours-only option, wake the screen to stop the chime, and stop the app from the notification bar.
ohhhhhh, I didn’t download the app itself but it makes me search cuckoo in f-droid, and what do you know there is one

For this kind of thing, I use Godot and write a quick and ugly one-off app. That way it works exactly how I imagine and I just send myself the APK over messenger and install it :P
Although it would be a joy to implement in hardware.
I hate how large the apk files are
I never actually noticed. It’s always been like 25MB for stuff I do. Is that a lot?
Takes a huge amount of storage on my production machine to store the various libraries to produce that file, to be fair. That is a minor pain.
Calendar. Recurring event every 30 minutes with a notification at start.
the shortest google calendar could reoccur an event is 1 day
That’s why you schedule 96 of them. (Please don’t do that - there has to be a better way.)
That’s what I’d do, but I’d make sure:
- I could hide the events in my calendar so I could still see the real events I want to keep track of, or
- to use a different calendar for this particular thing, or
- to assign them their own colour which I can easily ignore.
Clock app, make a 30 minute timer, reset when it goes off. Why do you need a whole app for that?
I like Galarm, it’s an alarm app that lets you set any interval you want to repeat, and you can set it to only occur during certain times. I have an alarm that goes off every two hours from 8:30am-8:30pm, for example.
I will be using this app for a while, although it was last updated in 2017 it seems to have all the requirement I mentioned before.
Thank you everyone for your kind reply.
Yeah it’s called Temu. You’ll get them in your email and SMS inboxes too.
