Parent is complaining about this will make you have to view your phone during the movie in order to see when it's happening, presumably because you'll disturb others who sit next to you because of the brightness of the phone.

So instead you suggest making it go off with a timer instead? That seems even worse!

Neither of the two methods I described require looking at the phone during the movie.

1. If you’re going to use the cues, you look at them before the movie starts.

2. If you’re going to use the timer, the phone will vibrate in your pocket. Granted, if you have a loud-vibrating phone, that could be disruptive (although not as bad as the screen being on or ringing, and not worse than a person getting up to go to the bathroom).

When the cue/timer happens, you leave the theater. While you’re peeing you can look at the app to find out what’s happening in the movie.

You start the app when the movie starts and it just sends a notification that vibrates at the best time. If you read the cues beforehand it’s a great reminder. Not distracting or disturbing to anyone else in the theater.

Except you can use this to tell you in advance when you can run, so you know when to take you're 1/2 way break.

And a discrete timer that vibrates in my pocket disturbs noone. And it does it at the best possible times.
