Flexible alarm - Beep 10m to and 20m after the hour

Here is the situation. I teach English online, and I have 30 min long classes, each beginning on and 30m past the hour. I need to check my bookings regularly, and not to forget to do so.

So, is there an alarm app that I can set to beep every 30 mins, at 10m to 20m after the hour, and start and stop with once click? Paid app is fine. This would make my life easier.

Any advice appreciated.

Alarm Clock plus can do that, but you will have to create a separate alarm for each time you want.

Which I do, as my wife has a lot of medications she has to take at very weird times.

plus all of the other things in life,
water the plants
take out the trash barrel to the street
feed the birds
take my meds on My Time Schedule​

you can choose an independent Alarm Tone, and Snooze yes/no, Volume Level ( independently for each and every alarm )

* Alarm Clock Plus★ - Android Apps on Google Play


AND it is totally free!
 
For each Alarm, you set the time it starts, and what day it repeats on.

and it is easy to recreate any of these alarms, as it has "Copy Alarm" feature.... so all you need do for the new alarm is set the precise time for it.

See the pictures

I would like an alarm that beeps at set intervals, 30 minutes, with a starting time set by myself, and to start and finish with one action. My teaching times vary each day. so setting multiple alarms and then turning them off for each and every day will be time consuming. Is there something like this?
 
Hi

You can use macrodroid to do what you want. Will take a bit of setting up, but only once.

Set triggers for each time on each day. Each can be different, but they then repeat each week.

Set action to alarm, or spoken words (which don't need cancelling) or anything else.

Turn the macro off if you are on holiday etc.


If you are not familiar with macrodroid, it's worth a look. Allows you to automate all sorts of things on a phone!
 
go back and reread what he wants.

he wants a 30 minute timer, that he can press a button and start it "now"

his scheduled times are not set in stone, and he rejected all of my advice for the same reasons.

I have tried to work with him, but it got heated up and the posts are gone now, for the better.

IMO, he needs to get a Kitchen Timer, set it to 30 minutes and be done with it.
Lots of little tiny FOB sized digital ones out there, perfect for the job.
