Lärmo

Support

Lärmo is a reminder app that keeps asking until you tick it done. If something isn't working the way you expect, the answer is probably below. If not, write to hello@raulhg.com — say which iPhone and iOS version you're on, and what you expected to happen.

My reminders don't ring

• Allow notifications. Settings › Notifications › Lärmo: Allow Notifications on, and Sounds on.
• Keep Time Sensitive on. In the same screen, Time Sensitive Notifications lets Lärmo get through Focus and Sleep. With it off, a Focus can hold your alarms back.
• Check the ring switch. With your iPhone on silent, iOS doesn't play notification sounds — the banner and vibration still come.
• Check the reminder is on. A paused reminder keeps its times but doesn't ring; it shows grey in the agenda.

Do I have to keep the app open?

No. Lärmo schedules its alarms ahead with iOS, so they ring whether the app is open, in the background or closed — and a day or two without opening it doesn't cost you an alarm. If something ever can't be scheduled, Lärmo sends a notice asking you to open it, rather than going quiet.

What's the difference between nagging and Rounds?

• Nagging is what happens after an alarm you haven't ticked: Lärmo asks again — every 30 minutes, say, up to five times, or until done.
• Rounds repeat a reminder through the day on purpose: water every hour for eight hours, a dose every four hours. Each round is its own thing to tick.

I'm travelling. What happens to my times?

When your iPhone's time zone changes, Lärmo asks whether to keep your reminders on home time or switch them to local time — so an 8:00 pill stays at 8:00 wherever you are, if that's what you want. You can change it later in Settings.

Where is my data? Is it backed up?

Everything stays on your iPhone — Lärmo has no account and no servers. It's included in your iPhone's own backups (iCloud Backup or a computer backup), if you use them. Syncing between devices isn't available yet.

How do I get help inside the app?

Tap ? on Home, the agenda, the calendar or the reminder editor for a short guide to what's on it.

Medical note

Lärmo is a reminder app, not a medical device. Always follow the advice of your doctor or pharmacist.
