Squawk

The Reminders of the Calendar application installed as standard on mobiles with the Android operating system may be insufficient when we need to be aware of a notification during a specific day and hour. For this reason, applications such as Squawk can be very useful when setting important remindersthat in no way should we forget.

Squawk is an application available for the operating system Android that allows show pending tasks as soon as you unlock the mobile screen This means that those tasks that we configure as important will appear in the form of a notification or pop-up message at the moment the one that we unlock the screen, which guarantees that we will not forget any of the errands that we have pending at all times.

The usefulness of Squawk lies in the fact that we are talking about an application that practically guarantees that we will remember the task that we have specified on our mobile. On the other hand, a simple alarm or a calendar notification is very easy to ignore, especially if we receive a large number of notifications throughout the day. Although it can even be annoying, the truth is that Squawk is practically a guarantee that we will be aware of all our pending reminders even if we have a day full of tasks.

The application of Squawk allows you to configure detailed reminders. Once we have specified the content of the reminder (make a purchase, send an email, call someone, etc.), the application will offer us the possibility of specifying how we want to be notified of the reminder. To do this we will have two options: in the form of notification or in the form of pop-up message on the screenNext we can also specify how often we want the notification to appear; we can make the reminder appear with each unlock (or with X number of unlocks), or we can also configure the reminder so that it only appears every so often (in minutes). In addition to this, to avoid having expired reminders on the screen, Squawk offers us the option to specify the period of time in which we need to be aware of the task we are configuring (see, for example, between the 5th and 15th of the current month).
