How this automation works

Stay prepared by starting a countdown and receiving a phone call before any of your Google Calendar events begin. This Applet runs a set number of minutes before each event start time, triggering a Pixoo-64 timer and an automated call. Ideal for busy professionals who need a visual and audible reminder to stay on schedule.
