One of main google's calendar functions is to remind people their events, with a scheduled sound alarm. The problem is that this sound, I know how to change it, but it only lasts for 1 second, so I don't hear it. Instead, when they call me, the sound lasts for very long until they hang up the phone, so I realize I'm being called. I would like if the alarm sound lasted longer, how to do it?

By the way, I have the same problem with google keep reminders.

I imagine some people like short sounds because they don't want to get disturbed, and probably they get reminded when they check their phones and see the notification. I want to know if it's possible to make it work like I specified, a longer loud sound like a call.

  • You can try solution here with modifications. Choose the apps to trigger and in action choose the sound you want. If that is not long enough , add wait xx seconds as another action followed by action for sound again

Go to "My Files" and then copy any mp3 or sounds that sounds longer to be your reminder. Then go to "device storage" look for "notifications" folder and paste it there.

Now go to your S Planner and go to "Settings" now you'll see your mp3 as the choice in the notifications tone options. Now you'll have a longer reminder tone 😊 Hope this will help

I am using Xiaomi's Redmi Note 7 and even after multiple attempts I could not implement @Clara's answer above since it is not allowed by MIUI.

I had to settle with having another app that rings an alarm according to my Google Calendar.

'Event Alarm Reminder for Google Calendar' by Lion Zöchling syncs with Google Calendar and rings an alarm that lasts for a longer duration (can be customized).

This is the only app that worked well with MIUI for me. Added bonus is that it has a decent looking UI.
