Hello,

 

I have Nokia Lumia 822. One thing I cannot understand about it. When I receive a text message, the phone alerts me only once, so if the phone is not with me at the time message is received - I won't know about it unless I watch the messages window on the screen all the time. I've missed already several messages this way.

 

With my previous phone I had an option to repeat the alerts every 5, 10, 15 or more minutes, but I cannot figure out how to set this up with Nokia, I cannot find anything appropriate in Settings. It is unlikely that Nokia is missing such an important feature, perhaps I just cannot find it.

 

There is also an application Remind Me in the Nokia Store that should do this, but there is nothing there for Lumia 822 - this model is not even listed in the store.

 

I would appreciate any advice on this.

 

Thank you.

The apps for your phone (and all the Lumia range) are in Windows Marketplace not Nokia Store.

The feature you are looking for does not exist in the native settings. I don't think there is an app for it but you'd need to search in the correct app store to make sure.

Thank you.

 

Yes, I've searched the Windows Marketplace - couldn't find any app like this.
