Yes!! If this feature were developed the way Alarmed has it, I could make the switch to Actions! Currently, the notifications are time based as if they’re for calendar events (be here in 1 hour), but reminders/tasks should be a completion-based notification (pay credit card bill). If that item is not completed, the notification should continue on a customize-able duration and frequency until it is marked as complete. I tested not clearing an item and it never notifies you again... alas, my credit card companies won’t like me if I happen to miss the first notification or can’t take immediate action.

Hey Mike we have another request for this here that you should vote for!

Hi all. We're investigating this feature at the moment. How do you see it working?
Is it that the alert should repeat every minute or so (configurable) until snoozed or cancelled? Or until the action is actually completed?
Any more details, options etc that you'd like to see in this feature?

Simon Burbidge: The best use for me would be someone like this:
In preferences, set a default snooze time or be able to chose from a list with long press. (e.g. 15 min, 1 hour, 1 day etc.).
In preferences, allow choice for a default number of times that the reminder will fire a notification (1 time up to 10 times.)
In preferences, allow for a default nag notification time. (e.g. every minute, every 5 min, every 10 min).
Once all of those are set in preferences...
Make a new action with due date (e.g. "buy watermelon tomorrow at 10am")
At 10am tomorrow, the notification will fire with complete, or snooze options. If I fail to press complete or snooze, the notification will fire again up to 10 times at the interval I set in preferences.

Simon Burbidge: I second Brandon's reply. Thanks!

Brandon: Simon Burbidge I think Brandon sets it out perfectly and this is how I saw the functionality when I first posted the feature request. Many thanks Brandon! 🥃 Slàinte!

Brandon: sounds great! I would lile the options to just keep nagging until snoozed or completed. That is the only reason I have not switched from the errands (very old) app

Simon Burbidge: is this still being investigated, or was it given up on? Would be great to have this functionality... This, and not being able to sync with iOS Reminders are the two things stopping me from purchasing the subscription at the moment. Hopefully they are implemented soon.

I cannot live without a nag notification feature for reminders and calendar events. I would love to try an advanced app like Actions but unfortunately I cannot use anything without a nag feature. If this app implements a nag feature for either calendar events or reminders I would switch to it immediately.

I agree- it seems like the default is 5 minutes. With other reminder apps, options for 15 mins/1 hr is typical and much preferred
