I previously mentioned Apple Shortcuts (with a silly example) so here’s another one using the “Automation” feature.
You can set an Automation to run at a specific time of day, so I have one at noon to remind me to take my medication and another at 5pm to remind me to leave work.
You can also set an Automation to Speak Text. Yeah, just like the say command on macOS. I used to set up cron jobs to run scripts with the say command to remind me of things.
But wait! Remember all those awesome voices like Organ and Zarvox? They’re all here to hear!
Funny story, the first time I set these up I was home alone and heard someone talking from another room in the house and I freaked out! I thought someone else was in my house. Nope, just my phone talking to me.
So yeah, there could be some good prank potential with this feature if you can access someone’s phone for a few minutes.
