Hi! It's doable yes - either with bootcode or a widget. Or maybe a non-background app utilizing the scheduler library (absolutely use this library in some way whichever route you take).

I've come across the BangleJS2 and it looks like it might suit my needs but I wanted to ask for advice before I jump in.
I would like to write a reminder app which will periodically notify disabled users of things they need to do, e.g. a pill reminder, pressure relief reminder etc. I need it to have multiple reminders per day and I have not found an off-the-shelf watch which can do this so I've been looking for a watch I can program myself.
I've looked at the demo application, which is a 30 second timer, but that seems to work only while the timer app is running and in focus. I need something which will run in the background instead and pop up when needed. Is this possible? I.e. can I write a background app which will monitor the current time and pop up warnings?
