Is there an app that could send me a notification every 30 minutes? (lemmy.ml)

They say time is is the most valuable resources. Right now, time feels quicker for me these days and I often lose track of it.

Because of that the app should have the same purposes as an old clock, it plays a little "ding" or a notification every 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 1 hour, or as long as I like.

Preferably installable with f-droid, can I have an app recommendation.

Or... Hear me out...

Use the default built-in alarm.

Why? Most of the non-built are somewhat blocked by phone notification controls such as do-not-disturb and other similar modes. Getting an app that has its implementation of this just right can be frustrating...

Just put a bunch of 30 min interval alarm, with a slight different ringtone than your usual alarms and you'll be golden :)

I'd say that could interfere with sleep, but instead of an alarm on repeat he could just have 32 timers set, allowing for 8 hours of sleep. (24-8)*16
