I hate this.

Every time i add an event to my calendar i have to read the whole list of freshly randomized, non-fitting reminder-time-options just to set a custom one anyway.

And as my memory is completely unreliable i set like 10 different reminders a day for everything.

This is on Pixel 6a.

Is there an obvious fix i’m not seeing?

Thx! 🙂

    I feel like it’s been a decade already… I paid for this app called CalenGoo. It’s kind of clunky and reminiscent of older office software, but it is such a powerhouse under the hood.

    It is insanely customizable, and it did the thing that I needed the most, which was to remind me in a way that I define!!!

    Plus when it does have a reminder go off, I can set any kind of quick snooze or even a very customized snooze like remind me in 172 minutes. If I dismiss a reminder I can undo it, and I can go into the specific event at any time and I can change the snooze, it’s just… I don’t even know how to describe how good this thing is.

    When I set an event I can link it to map coordinates, Contact Cards, attach objects, have it synced to multiple calendars. It integrates with other apps which can then add in reminders (eg a line music event on FB). Linked events will update in real time and you’ll get notifications for example if the venue changes.
