♾ Autobook: End-of-Day Text Message

Introducing the End-of-Day Text Automation – your secret weapon for unlocking peak productivity and success! A productive day starts the night before - preparing for the next day is a crucial element in achieving your goals, and this automation empowers you to do just that.

As an individual, I want to receive a daily text message at 8 PM to proactively plan and prepare for the upcoming day, ensuring better organization and foresight.

Text Includes:

  1. Weather
  2. Calendar Events (From multiple calendars)

Result:

Limitations to Note

Per this link, Twilio supports a maximum character limit of 1600 per text sent. Twilio is the integration Bardeen uses in order to complete the sending of the SMS Text Message action.

  • I could see this being an issue for the above use case when someone has a lot of calendar events the next day.
  • The Fix: A potential fix could be to send a text message per event, or send the weather in one text and the events in another text message. This will vary by each individual user.

Awesome automation Jess! Can be very customized for each user’s objective.

Thank you @Chris, I’m still testing and will need to update to not give out my own personal number. And probably plan to only have it open for a limited time to public for free, then have it be paid.

Thanks @ivan, I’m glad you like it!

Yes, exactly. But there are some limitations such as character limit per text.

:new: As an update on my testing, there’s been bugs found on Bardeen’s side of the integration with Twilio. Artem confirmed they will be addressed in a release after 2.25.0. Thank you for your patience!
