Do you need a stickied notification? Not sure if that’s enough for what you’re looking for, but a reminder/task app with reoccurring options and a non-dismissable feature might work. Ruppu, Taskito, and I think Microsoft’s To Do might also have this option.
Repeating reminder: DO NOT CALL between 10pm-2am would work, for example.
A lot of comments in this thread defending OEMs from customer’s benefits, which is disheartening to me, but I’m sure joyous for shareholders. I see comments saying you should buy premium phones that have SD cards, but there aren’t many options. The only one is a $1400 Xperia I V. I would love nothing more to have the SD card on only the “ultra” variants, if costs are too much of an issue for those who don’t use the feature, but there’s not much “ultra” in the “Ultra” variant besides an extra camera or two.
For those who are baffled by what we hoard on our devices, why does it matter? Do we ask what you do on your phone when there doesn’t seem to be anything on them? “I barely use 50GB on my device” and “128GB is more than enough for me” seem to be the prevailing notion here, and it’s frustrating since your demographic is already highly represented on the market. It’s similar to those who wish there wasn’t a selfie cam because they never used it, ignoring all the video calls millions use on a daily basis.
But maybe an answer might stop the “curiosity” of the sparse data hoarders, and they might understand our plight. On my 1TB SD Card, I currently have:
220GB Audiobooks 18GB Music 34GB Pictures 330GB Videos, Movies, and TV Shows 10GB Work and Project Files 12GB Podcasts 14GB Games
As someone who is frequently in low-signal areas, especially while driving, streaming is not an option. My media has entertained me during flights, public transit commutes, working out, jury duty, and the DMV. I also don’t want to transfer my media in and out of my device (I do back up my data wirelessly to my own server), nor do I want to bring an adapter when the technology is already embedded inside.
So OP, I feel you, and I’m hoping SD cards comeback.
PiP won’t work with two media apps? Ugh, I was hoping I could watch two sports games concurrently! Especially during times like now and October, where you have playoff games of one sport and the regular season swing of your favorite teams in the other. I can do this with my Tab S8! If only it could work natively.
