Unfortunately Android doesn't have default integrated functionality to notify user periodically about missing calls/messages/other notifications via sound (only LED is blinking). This opensource tool allows to monitor notifications from any applications which are important for You (including missed calls, messengers, SMS, e-mails, etc) and perform sound reminder periodically

Just launch app, allow it to receive notification events, select reminder interval and important applications. That's it. If there are any unhandled notifications from thet selected apps in the statusbar, app will notify You periodically with the notification sound you choose.

IMPORTANT: if app doesn't work please try to find solution for your phone here https://dontkillmyapp.com

The battery is used only if there are missed notifications which requires periodical reminder. App wakes phone to perform sound notification and then sleep again.

The app uses minimum set of required permissions.

Android 4.0-4.2 support is experimental such as these OS versions doesn't have a 100% working method to monitor notification removal.

XIAOMI users should enable application autostart explicitly in the security settings
Huawei users should disable battery automanagement for the Missed Notifications Reminder app: in the Battery > App Launch -> Manage All Automatically - - > uncheck MNR app

I have had, for 4 months a HORRIFIC infux of POLITICAL agenda, begging for funds, & mud slinging texts RINGING into a LOCK screen set for NO notifications. This 10 times thruout day & night has greatly affected my health. I struggled to find its pathway in & was praying that after election they would stop. They became far worse. Finally found it HERE - it was coming thru this app! Only thing I use it for is Messages. I unclicked the box. Silence.

Was 5 stars. Loved it for the longest time. Love it less since it stopped working properly. One day it stopped clearing after I looked at messages and now I have to manually dismiss the reminder every time. All of a sudden it can't recognize that something has been seen already. Total pain. Keeping it until they fix it or I find something better.

This app fills in a missing and vital piece of the Android operating system. As others have said, missing a notification can mean missing a lot. This app will enable a missed notification to harass you until you pay attention to it, act on it, or dismiss it. I also appreciate its ability to cancel the repeating notification but retain the visual notification in the pulldown shade. Props to the developer! :: If this thing ever stops working, it will be a sad day... [ Android 14, Pixel 7a ]
