Hello, does anyone know of a tasks app that will keep sending reminders every x minutes until you check off a task? I have to take a pill at a specific time every day but I am absolutely terrible with reminders and I get constantly distracted. Often I see the notif/alarm but just ignore it or immediately forget about it. I wish there was a way to keep getting alarms until I actually check off that I took the pill.

    Maybe you’d want to check out tasks.org - it’s available on F-droid. I just checked if it can set an indefinite repeating reminder each x minutes but in theory you could set a high number of reminders (it seems you can set up to 999999999 repeating reminders!)

      Tasks.org is the best I’ve come across. But the frequent reminder may seem like a good idea. But I don’t know, it may be annoying later.

        Yes exactly, I want to avoid having to set a lot of reminders because some days I’m great and I’ll take my meds immediately, and I don’t want to have to check all of them off. I’d love a single reminder that alerts me every 5min if I’ve not completed the task. I can’t figure out how to set that up in tasks.org though - is there a way to change the “When overdue” reminder? It’s set up automatically to a day later.
