recommendations for an app to pin a reminder in my notifications? (self.fdroid)

The only one I found by searching is way out of date and doesn't seem to work. But it feels like there's got to be one out there somewhere

If you're reading this I hope you're having a lovely day :)

I couldn't find something specific for showing notifications, but https://github.com/tasks/tasks Is doing it for any due task. I personally use it a lot.

Were you talking about P!n? I use it every day. It's brill.

Do you mean [p!n](p!n (Pin notes to the notification area.) https://f-droid.org/packages/de.nproth.pin/)?

Not sure what to search for, with just 'Pin'

Edit: hmm.... Not sure what fucked up my link formatting :⁠-⁠\

Sorry this was correct.

E: Fwiw, it does show up for me, but it seems to have been kind of abandoned? Perhaps it only shows for me because I've had it installed all this time?

Thank you so much for giving me a convenient link, that's very thoughtful of you :)

[–] Cris_Color 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I was not, there's a different older app that had the source code archived and just didn't seem to work for me

I'll give P!n a try, thank you for the recommendation!

Very welcome; hope it helps.

There are some hidden features in its minimal interface and I'd be happy to lend a hand if needed.

Thank you very much, having now interacted with it a bit I see what you mean! Its a super interesting ui. I'll play around with it a bit and if I find something unclear or I can't find a way to do something with it I'll see if you might be able to help :)

Thank you so much for extending that offer ☺️ I hope you have a lovely day my friend

Notesnook, an e2e notes app with a nice design, has the option for any note you make. "Pin to notifications"

[–] Cris_Color 1 points 5 days ago

That sounds like a lot more functionality than I presently need, but it looks like an awesome option, I'll absolutely keep it in mind! Thanks for taking the time to share it with me! ☺️

SimpleReminder

Something to remember crosses your mind and an alarm or a note is the best solution you know of? Then you haven't tried SimpleReminder yet!

This app lets you set up a scheduled reminder in very few steps

A notification with your message will pop up at the time selected!

I don't think this is quite what I was looking for, but thank you for sharing it and providing a link :)

:) then you have this one ☞

Once created, a note will stick around and be instantly displayed on your lock screen as a notification. https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/de.nilsfo.lsn
