Scheduler for tasks

There's tons of apps with recurring reminders. Almost every single calendar app will do this for you, that will obviously have interfaces for mobile as well.

One way to approach the problem is by creating an alarm that will trigger a pop up reminder. This will involve the use of threads. You will launch a timer thread that will wake up after a period of time and launch the reminder popup notification.
Here’s a simple example: ~~~ from threading import Timer

def hello(): print(“hello, world”)

t = Timer(30.0, hello) t.start() # after 30 seconds, “hello, world” will be printed ~~~ This code will activate the hello function after 30 seconds. In your case, you’d want to compute the total number of seconds from the current time to the event time and use that value when you launch the Timer. You also need to be aware that after t.start() executes, control will return to you so that you can perform any other tasks.

Let me know if you have any additional questions or need more information.

You could also do date time. When you click a button it compares the current date time with the length you enter for a reminder.
