Say your own words, on schedule

Any chime can carry your own message instead of the time.

Set custom text for any mark (:00, :15, :30 or :45) and it becomes the notification's message. It shows on the lock screen no matter which sound you've picked.

Two ways it can reach you

• As a sound with a message. Pick any chime, and your text appears in the notification while the chime plays.
• Spoken aloud. Select the speaking clock as the sound for that mark, and Tinny(not) reads your text out loud instead of the time.

What people use it for

"Take your pills." "Stand up and stretch." "Check on dinner." Anything short and worth repeating on a schedule, without building a separate reminders app around it.

Questions

Can each quarter mark have its own message?

Yes: :00, :15, :30 and :45 can each say something different. A mark you leave blank borrows the text from :00.

What does the notification say if I don't write anything?

Just the time, for example “It’s 2:30 PM”, in your phone’s language and format.

Can my text be spoken aloud?

Choose the speaking clock as that mark's sound, and Tinny(not) reads your words instead of the time.
