You can also set an event to repeat daily, weekly, monthly, etc. if you need it to. 3 You can now enter a name for the event, assign it a colour by tapping the coloured circle, apply a sticker to it and choose a time for the event. The time you choose is when you will see a notification on your device alerting you of the event. Tap the alarm section to choose when the alert sounds. 6 For regular events, tap‘Don’t repeat’and you can choose to have the event occur at the same time every day, week, month or year.
