User-Initiated Triggers

Summary

Creating a trigger increases compliance.

👀

Introduction

People are more likely to interact with a trigger (e.g., a push notification, or an alert), if they've set it up themselves.

For example, if you've decided that every Tuesday at 11am you're going to go for a walk, and get a push notification 10 minutes beforeĀ to remind you, then you'll be more likely to react to the trigger if you created the alert.

i.e.,Ā rather than a system deciding when to alert you.

Thatā€™s theory, now learn about how to implement this.
