I use a mobile Android app called Tasker ($3 US) which runs various user-configured profiles. It took an automated solution to get the task off my list and ensure it was done each time I leave work. The next step is to add ‘Get items’ action, which is the key part of the flow. All notifications will be distributed at the same time.

Once a day it’ll filter all items that need the reminder and send it. For a long time she’d remind me and I’d continue to forget. It should be a scheduled flow, running daily. So sending my wife a message to let her know I’m on the way is super helpful. My commute from the office to home can range from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours. She often makes dinner for the whole family or the kids need something from me or she simply wants to know when her relief is going to arrive. My wife likes to know when I’m going to be home after work. A simple tasker profile to read aloud a text message, as well as respond when in your car.Link to video I referenced.
