Flow trash bag

Hallo everyone,

What is the most easiest way to program a flow that homey always say's on 20:00 a clock.

 " "name" Don't forgot to put out the trash bag outside. "

but every day someone else his "name" will be say'd. So for example on Monday he say's " Dennis don't forgot to put out the trash bag outside. " and on Saturday " Michael don't forgot to put the trash bag outside."

Thank you guys for thinking with me.

  • You could use multiple flows, but I don't think you meant that...
    Do you want same people take out the trash on the same day always? For ex. Dennis always takes out trash on a Saturday, etc. etc. ?
  • I think the best would it to make a flow per day. So on monday it says person x take out the trash and on thursday it says person y take out the trash. 
  • You can use the calendar app to do this.
    In Belgium you can download your garbage calendar from a website. I've added this in my google calendar.
    If you set the location in your calendar to a persons name the you can also use this flag.
    I've set my timer 4 hours before the event because they all start at 00:00

    Looks to me like a "studentenhuis" where the garbage needs to go outside every day.
    Maybe u can set a variable.
    U can call it "Garbage" .
    Make some flows with like:
    When its Monday, AND its 19.00 hours, set variable to "Dennis".
    When its Thuesday, AND its 19.00 hours, set variable to "Bas". And so on.
    Now make a flow:
    When its 20.00 hours, SAY: {{$Garbage}}, dont forget the garbage!

    It's complicated and not 100% proof. When Dennis is not at home for instance, Bas has to do it anyway.
    (Mesa not a wizard, just offering suggestions)
  • Can you maybe make a example @Rocodamelshe ?

    Now setting the flow:







    If u have any questions about this, plz lemme know.
