"You have a reminder set for 5pm today," my phone said.
"A reminder? What is it?" I asked.

😆 It might be nice to have a phone that tells me "Remember, we're all counting on you. Good luck." Otoh it would probably keep calling me Shirley.
You can absolutely do that with a text to speech app and the app Tasker on Android.
It would have to be Leslie Neilson's voice though.
Just have it play an mp3 clip of that scene in the movie.
"5pm today" can also get ambiguous if you're flying across time zones.
If you keep in flying in the right direction, it could take more that 24 hours until you finally catch 5pm.
