Recurring Alarm - Treo Forums

KevinC · 04-04-2007, 07:06 PM

Before I got my Treo, I had an alarm set on my old non-PDA phone to go off every morning at 8AM. What is the best way to do this with my Treo? Doing it in Tasks creates issues when sycing on a daily basis.

You can use your calender program, you can get an alarm clock program for this (I use MobileClock - http://www.rmobile.ca/). If you use the calender program, I suggest getting Butler to ensure it keeps nagging you (http://www.hobbyistsoftware.com/butler-more.php).

...or, if you end up getting Butler, it has mulitple alarms itself which can do it for you.

I use Treo Alarm to perform this function

I have not had a 700p but on the 650 world clock program has an alarm clock that can be set for whatever time you want., Does the 700 p have that feature as well?

Yes, it does.

Thanks! That helps.
Also had a recurring alarm for a reminder at work M-F. Any suggestions for that without additional software?

TreoAlarm does that, may be additional software for you but it's free.

Its what I have used to get me out of bed for over a year now! It turns my phone off every night at 11:00 through the week also! Mine was free, but I posted a blog bragging about it and the developer gave it to me. He was charging $18.50 for it at the time.

I noticed this week, as of 3/12/07 its no longer for sale, however its still available for download . . I don't know if this means it expires or not. I tried to access the forum, but it was unavailable.

Datebook 6 allows you to do reoccurring alarms and Butler allows the Treo to NAG a lot. A great combination.
