New notification features for alarms #118

Open madb1lly opened 4 years ago

Hi @fennifith,

I was looking for an open source clock app and found yours is the closest to what I'm after. In particular what your app does which another open source app doesn't is have the option of multiple timers (even if they aren't working atm).

In comparison to the Google app though it is missing some notification features for alarms which I think are useful:

Cheers 🙂

Valid suggestion - this could be implemented along with the "sleep reminder" feature, which I believe currently has some compatibility issues on newer Android versions (#43) and will need to be rewritten some other way.

I'm not sure what the best method to accomplish this would be - snoozed/missed notifications are simpler, since the app will already be active at the time that they need to be sent, but "upcoming alarms" and "sleep reminder" both need to be invoked prior to the alarm time, perhaps involving a separate call to AlarmManager that will need to be managed in conjunction with the alarm.
