I've been using https://www.dueapp.com on my iOS devices since pre-iOS 7 and it has offered features this article makes sound impossible before iOS 26.

The local notifications chain on iOS may still be limited to 64 alerts, but an app can easily just schedule the next 64 pending items and update that when any background app refresh or app launch occurs.

I think this developer might quickly find what I often do on v1-v? of Apple "Kits" ... it won't be that useful and will have some serious drawback and you'll still be working around it to do what you want. Hope I'm wrong, but also, it can likely already be done like Due app shows.

Yes, we've also been solving existing problems using a similar approach. However, AlarmKit solves several issues that were previously impossible, such as displaying full-screen alarm interfaces rather than just push notifications.

For do not disturb, you can: settings -> focus -> do not disturb has a section at the top for allowing specific apps or specific people.

But that does not bypass silent mode. Critical alert does.

If this reminder app to take meds can't access this API, how can HomeAssistant's iOS app access it where, I the user, can base the trigger for a critical notification on virtually anything?

Yeah. That's why I am so confused.

a) They have an appeals process: https://developer.apple.com/distribute/app-review

b) Standards has been in place for over a decade: https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines

The appeals process does not apply to Critical Alert Entitlement requests, which must be submitted through the external form: https://developer.apple.com/contact/request/notifications-cr...
