Schedule my skill

Hi, is there any way or example to schedule my skill to run at a particular time everyday. I am trying to make my app pop up everyday at a certain time without user invoking with alexa keyword?

Is it possible to schedule the first run on a app, and then ask user input(date) for next scheduling and store it in data base, and automatically invoke the app later.

Unfortunately, this isn't available at this time as the skill must be invoked by the user each time to start it. Feel free to submit it as a feature request here though.

Hi,

is this possible now? any way by which audio file can be played at certain time programatically?
by use of routines and schedules?
