[drewcam888]

Hi. Seems the excellent Prof Reminder is no longer available from Google Play. Can anyone recommend an alternative?

Hi, thanks for your reply. That seems to be an app to put notifications on a Wear device. I'm looking for something to give me a periodic audible notification if I miss an incoming call or message/WA etc.

I switched to this:

I like the app, but the size of all the parts of the UI are too big, so it doesn't show much info at one time, and you have to scroll alot to see more info. I wish the elements of the UI wer smaller and more compact because it looks like it was designed for someone with poor vision.

That's the type of information that needs to be relayed to the developer of the app.

Professional Reminder has now reappeared on Google Play at version 3.3.5.

I recently moved from a Pixel 4a to a Pixel 5 (both Android 13) and also changed carriers. I noticed two things that affected my previously working ability to get reminders for voicemail but NOT missed calls. The update to Android 13 was recent, so I don't know which of these caused the change.
1. I was unable to select the Phone app as one to monitor for notifications. I got around this by saving the configuration on my old phone and restoring on the new. But how is it supposed to be done now? As a secondary "Missed call" reminder?
2. The text "Voicemail" is no longer in the notification (the second line is now blank when there is a voicemail left), so I can't filter on it. It looks like I can filter on it NOT saying "Missed call", but is there a better way?

 

[Tiger Shark]

OK, so how can I have an alert for specific people using the content filter without having a separate entry for every one? Is there a way to have an "or" in the filter, like "Home" OR "Mom"? Other than adding a special character to the actual name, I can't figure out how to have anything in the notification that would uniquely identify a member of a list of callers from whom I wish to get a reminder.

Anyone know how I would go about creating a Tasker task to turn off Prof Reminder when driving is detected (via Android's built-in activity detection), and then turn it back on when driving is no longer detected?

 

[EngineerMind]

Can Tasker disable an APK (app) and then re-enable it?
