About this app

Unfortunately Android doesn't have default integrated functionality to notify user periodically about missing calls/messages/other notifications via sound (only LED is blinking). This opensource tool allows to monitor notifications from any applications which are important for You (including missed calls, messengers, SMS, e-mails, etc) and perform sound reminder periodically

Just launch app, allow it to receive notification events, select reminder interval and important applications. That's it. If there are any unhandled notifications from thet selected apps in the statusbar, app will notify You periodically with the notification sound you choose.

IMPORTANT: if app doesn't work please try to find solution for your phone here https://dontkillmyapp.com

The battery is used only if there are missed notifications which requires periodical reminder. App wakes phone to perform sound notification and then sleep again.

The app uses minimum set of required permissions.

Android 4.0-4.2 support is experimental such as these OS versions doesn't have a 100% working method to monitor notification removal.

XIAOMI users should enable application autostart explicitly in the security settings
Huawei users should disable battery automanagement for the Missed Notifications Reminder app: in the Battery > App Launch -> Manage All Automatically - - > uncheck MNR app

Ratings and reviews

Was 5 stars. Loved it for the longest time. Love it less since it stopped working properly. One day it stopped clearing after I looked at messages and now I have to manually dismiss the reminder every time. All of a sudden it can't recognize that something has been seen already. Total pain. Keeping it until they fix it or I find something better.

Seems to work very well. The hardest part is that picking which apps to use it for -- they are not alphabetized fully (some are in random order, then the rest are alphabetized). Plus lots of internal com.google.{something} apps listed. Would be worth an extra point if the apps were searchable, alphabetized, and some way to un-check internal apps.

Pixel 3 user here. I was upset that there was not built in notification reminder in the Pixel 3 (pretty lame on their end). I was glad to see this app. For sure it does miss reminders on text messages (it generally works but is inconsistent) where it won't remind repeatedly, which is my setting. I have it in vibrate mode now (which is most of the time for me) and it hasn't worked for several text messages, which two different people. Eugene perhaps there is an advanced setting I'm missing or just a glitch every now and then?...It's free and generally works, so how could I complain. It does take some testing out as there are lots of settings. Since there was no built in notification reminder in the Pixel 3 it would force me to check my phone often as there is no way to hear the vibrate on the Pixel 3 even when set to strongest. With this reminder I don't have to check rather I get a reminder, which is the way is should have been (and be so reliant and focused on that screen)! However, as stated it is not 100% work with the text messages (which is what I use this app for) but darn near close.
