# Prompt Scheduling

> Configure when and how often prompts are delivered to participants.

Each prompt has a schedule that controls when it's delivered to participants. Scheduling is configured along three dimensions: **active days**, **time window**, and **frequency**.

## Active Days

Choose which days of the week the prompt fires. Each day has an independent toggle.

| Day       | Default |
| --------- | ------- |
| Monday    | ✅ On    |
| Tuesday   | ✅ On    |
| Wednesday | ✅ On    |
| Thursday  | ✅ On    |
| Friday    | ✅ On    |
| Saturday  | ✅ On    |
| Sunday    | ✅ On    |

All days are enabled by default. Disable specific days for studies that only need data on certain days (e.g., weekdays only).

## Time Window

Set the time range during which the prompt can fire each day.

| Setting        | Default         | Format |
| -------------- | --------------- | ------ |
| **Start time** | `08:00` (8 AM)  | HH:mm  |
| **End time**   | `22:00` (10 PM) | HH:mm  |

* When frequency is set to **"Once"**, the picker shows a single **"At"** time, and the end time is automatically set to start + 2 minutes
* When frequency is anything else, the picker shows **"Between \[start] And \[end]"** with two time pickers

## Frequency

How many times per day the prompt fires within the time window.

| Label                 | Interval | Description                                   |
| --------------------- | -------- | --------------------------------------------- |
| **Once**              | —        | Single notification at the specified time     |
| **Every 30 minutes**  | 30 min   | Fires every 30 minutes within the time window |
| **Every hour**        | 60 min   | Fires every 60 minutes within the time window |
| **Every two hours**   | 120 min  | Fires every 2 hours within the time window    |
| **Every three hours** | 180 min  | Fires every 3 hours within the time window    |
| **Every four hours**  | 240 min  | Fires every 4 hours within the time window    |

## Notifications

Each prompt has a **notifications toggle**. When enabled, participants receive push notifications at the scheduled times to remind them to respond.
