Is it possible to play a sound even when the app is off? It should be possible for the user to pick a date to trigger the alarm, and then, when it is time, play the chosen alarm tune even when the app is off. I tried using Google Calendar API, but couldn’t wrap my head around it. Any ideas? Thanks.

If you want to add an event using google script, you may try this. I did not try it myself [image] How to Insert Event in Google Calendar Web API's You can use Google Apps Script to created a webhook to create event in G Calendar. Get Server/Webhook Codes from Github. Note : You can do more with G-Calendar by using this webhook (View Docs).

Not possible. Thunkable does not run in the background. The closest you could get would be to use something like one signal to schedule a push notification.

Thank you very much for your help. I will try this out. Will this send a notification to the user at the appointed time?
