Chit Chat Across the Pond

CCATP #797 – Adam Engst on His Quest for Alarming Notifications


Listen Later

CCATP #793 for July 9, 2024, and I'm your host, Allison Sheridan. In case you missed the announcement, Adam Engst of TidBITS is now a member of the Podfeet Podcasts family as a continuing contributor to Chit Chat Across the Pond.

In this week's episode, we talked about why Adam believes we need persistent calendar and reminder notifications. Adam is hyper-focused and when he's writing it's not uncommon for him to easily dismiss a notification of an upcoming event.

Articles referenced in the conversation:

* A Call to Alarms: Why We Need Persistent Calendar and Reminder Notifications.

* In Your Face Provides Persistent Notifications for Events and Tasks

* Just Due It: Persistent Notifications for Tasks - TidBITS

* CalAlarm app Adam is testing for iOS
