The app I am creating is an app that memorizes English words. I want to send a notification that 10 minutes have passed since a specific user saw a word.

I made it to count ten minutes.  
When 10 minutes have passed, is it possible to send information of a specific user to onesignal that 10 minutes have passed, and to receive notification that 10 minutes have passed?  
Or is it possible to implement it in a way other than onesignal?

This is my app address.

@mom7667yafy - I don’t know of any way to do this with Thunkable X at the moment.

Did you look into using some other no-code service like Zapier or Integromat to automate the notification process for you?

I do not know Zapier or Integromat. I would like to implement without using this.

> Hi All, The Thunkable X documentation only shows you the possibility of using OneSignal to send notifications on bulk to your list of subscribed or active users. However many applications require the ability to send a notification to a specific user based on an action that occurs within the app. For example when I request an Uber, a notification is sent directly to me when my Uber is one minute away. We can do similar with OneSignal and Thunkable by doing the below (Note: you can’t live test P…

I know on the link page above how to implement what I want is discussed.  
It’s a bit missing or difficult for me to understand.  
so  
I want a detailed tutorial that even a beginner can follow.

Hi,

It’s possible using onesignal API - you just use the “send\_after” or “delayed” body parameter. In this case you would want to get the device time when the user saw the word and delay the notification for 10 mins past that time.

Thank you.  
I am relieved to hear that what I want to implement can be implemented as thunkable.

I am thankful to know that I can send push notifications by controlling the time with send\_after in the rest api.
