Randominder | Routine Hacker

“I’m awake between these times” does nothing. I get reminders while I sleep, which is worthless.

The app works well and generates reminders randomly per user specifications. But it advertises the ability to execute shortcuts, and I can't figure out how to use this feature. And there is absolutely no support information or tutorials on this app anywhere I can find online. When I try to add a shortcut to a routine I am given the option to use either "Text" or "Clipboard", and I have no idea how to use that to link to a shortcut. If I can get a reply from the app maker on how to do this I'll increase my rating.

I’m trying to find a way to contact the developer to see if they can make an improvement for me. I work a night time security job where I do checks every 15 minutes on sleeping kids who are in a state of high risk of causing harm to themselves or others. My job is to make sure they stay alive and don’t hurt anyone. The problem is that if I set reminder alarms every 15 minutes, they catch on to the pattern and will misbehave between my 15 minute checks because they know the schedule. I found this app in my search for an iOS app or a clock or something to help me make sure I’m remembering to do at least 4-6 checks every hour but I wanted the time to be split up into random increments so they can’t predict the schedule. This is the perfect app!! I set up 9 separate schedules between 10pm-11pm, 11pm-12am, 12am-1am, etc. The small problem is I can’t schedule something through the last hour of the of the day, 12 am. For the 11pm-12am schedule, the app keeps shifting the time to PM or else adjusting the time I have scheduled. So the closest I can get for that hour is 11pm-11:45pm. To the developer, I work in software too so I know the feeling of getting emails requesting random things from people that doesn’t seem to fit the way the software was intended to be used. As a result their requests can sometimes fall off the side. If you can make this change for me, I’d really appreciate it!! I’m still rating 5/5 because it’s perfect for everything except that 15 minute window between 11:45pm-12:00am

This does exactly what I was looking for. Random reminders and it took me to my shortcuts. I build the shortcut to take me to a google sheet where I could record my energy level to start tracking how I feel at different times of day. Random sampling is the best way to do that and this is a perfect way to get random sampling. Also the support was fantastic!
