Each prompt has a schedule that controls when it’s delivered to participants. Scheduling is configured along three dimensions: active days, time window, and frequency.
Active Days
Choose which days of the week the prompt fires. Each day has an independent toggle.
| Day | Default |
|---|
| Monday | ✅ On |
| Tuesday | ✅ On |
| Wednesday | ✅ On |
| Thursday | ✅ On |
| Friday | ✅ On |
| Saturday | ✅ On |
| Sunday | ✅ On |
All days are enabled by default. Disable specific days for studies that only need data on certain days (e.g., weekdays only).
Time Window
Set the time range during which the prompt can fire each day.
| Setting | Default | Format |
|---|
| Start time | 08:00 (8 AM) | HH:mm |
| End time | 22:00 (10 PM) | HH:mm |
- When frequency is set to “Once”, the picker shows a single “At” time, and the end time is automatically set to start + 2 minutes
- When frequency is anything else, the picker shows “Between [start] And [end]” with two time pickers
Frequency
How many times per day the prompt fires within the time window.
| Label | Interval | Description |
|---|
| Once | — | Single notification at the specified time |
| Every 30 minutes | 30 min | Fires every 30 minutes within the time window |
| Every hour | 60 min | Fires every 60 minutes within the time window |
| Every two hours | 120 min | Fires every 2 hours within the time window |
| Every three hours | 180 min | Fires every 3 hours within the time window |
| Every four hours | 240 min | Fires every 4 hours within the time window |
