Phone Call Timer

AppSheet AppSheet Q&A

Hey Appsters! Has anyone found a way to call a number on a timer? Meaning if I set a 1 hour timer, the phone would ring?

The goal is to make an app that people can use to call themselves, instead of having to rely on a friend to get out of a sticky situation. You could set the timer for an hour, go to the event or meeting and when the timer runs out your phone would ring. This would be an acceptable wait to excuse yourself from the situation.

also pretty much exactly this - but not having to use IFTT

While you can send SMS directly using AppSheet, I don’t think you can place phone calls. However, you can use other services like Twilio to place phone calls, by invoking an API directly from AppSheet, or through a connector like Zapier.

There’s no way to do this with AppSheet.
