Like, what the fuck. Waiting rooms, libraries, movie theaters, on and on. That same fucking Samsung notification sound, at volume 11/10. For every notification every 20 seconds as Fox/CNN/QVC forces more and more bullshit on you and therefore us. Do you not know that you’re pissing everyone off? Do you not care? I hope it’s because you’re too stupid to turn off sound notifications, but the high volume suggests that you like it and want more. Your generation was the one making us be quiet in public spaces and now you ruin them for everybody. Seriously, fuck you.
I have a uncle with a similar situation. He ended up getting him a smart watch. I don’t remember which, but the search was for the strongest vibrate he could find. The phones vibrate didn’t do the job, but he feels the wrist vibrate.
He also is used to wearing a watch so he feels weird without it and there fore doesn’t forget it.
Maybe that could help you.
I already wear a smart watch and use the vibrate reminders. It’s not particularly effective. After a lifetime in the harsh sun, there ain’t a lot of feeling left. Maybe once out of three times I might notice the vibration if I’m not distracted doing life things.
