Need Help with MacroDroid Notification Setup

[Quatie]

I've been struggling with setting up MacroDroid to display a notification every 3 weeks, reminding me to do something. Additionally, I want the notification to reappear every 30 minutes until I click on it. I tried using the "not invoked" constraint, but the notification only pops up once.

Any advice or alternative approaches to achieve this recurring notification setup would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Appreciate you replying. Since I can't get it to work I deleted it, I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. Can it get done?

Thank you

To trigger every 3 weeks select the day of week you want it to fire. Then, when it fires, add 1 to a counter and test its value. When it reaches the desired value (2 or 3 depending whether you start from 0 or 1), send the notification.

This notification will remain unless you erase it.

I'm really sorry but I'm not sure what you mean with counter, how do I set that up?

Sorry

A counter is an integer variable

Ahhh. Under variables I don't see an option for Counter, could it be called something else?

I think you first should have a look to MacroDroid Wiki to get more familiar with MacroDroid.

To precisely answer your question, a counter is an ordinary integer variable you programmatically increase or decrease by a required step (+1 in you case).

I have been using macrodoid over a year now. But variables is where I get stuck. I'll try and figure it out, appreciate your help.

@Quatie it's definitely worth geting familiar with variables as they will allow much more powerful macros and functionality.

Just to expand on what was written above, to create a simple counter you want to define a variable (either local or global) called counter and then using the set variable action select that variable and then the option value + 1. This will increment the counter value each time the set variable action is called.
