How to hold reminders until your game is closed
Give the reminder routine its usual trigger, such as At a time, then add a Wait until no protected game is running before Show banner and Speak text. If you're in a match, the reminder waits; if not, it shows right away.
Steps
- 1
Schedule the reminder
Add At a time, for example 21:00 every day.
- 2
Wait for the match to end
Add a Wait until that waits until Protected game running is no longer true, with a time limit of a few hours.
- 3
Cover other full-screen games
For games without anti-cheat, add a second Wait until on Full-screen app in front with "games only" turned on, waiting until none is in front.
- 4
Show it
Add Show banner and Speak text with your reminder.
Tips
- The Wait until continues the moment game-safe changes, for example when the game closes, so the reminder isn't late.
- Show banner never draws over a protected game anyway; this routine also holds the spoken part.
Questions
- Will I still get it if I play past the time limit?
- Set what happens when the Wait until times out: carry on and show it anyway, or stop the routine.
- Is it free?
- Yes. At a time, Protected game running, Full-screen app in front, Show banner and Speak text are free.
