What problem are you having?
Maybe it's because of my school's internet, I will test entering the site in my house.
Simple question: How can I (without using any extension) save the hours and minutes input by the user on a time picker and also notify them at the time stored in TinyDB?
simple answer: in TinyDB
you could keep your app up and running (however no other app might be used then) and use the clock component to check regularly, for the alarm time and then display a notifier and/or play a sound
to keep the app up and running without using an extension you could

I know that I have to do it in TinyDB I wanted to know the blocks I had to use...
Use the TinyDB.StoreValue method to store the datetime converted in millis

Okay, about the datetime conversion in millis... Should I send a printscreen of the blocks I have soo far so you can tell me the best way to do it? I would love if you sent a printscreen of the blocks needed to do the conversion since I'm not quite finding them.
If you need help with these, this sounds like a good idea... else obviously noone knows what you are doing

I just need to know one thing for now:
I want that: I press the "Save" button - > It converts the timepicker date into Millis -> It saves that value into TinyDB - > And then activates the clock1 to warn the user at that time...
Can you help me out with the blocks?
Now I tried something:
Great
To get a better understanding of how to work with date and time, do this tutorial
And learn how to use Do it
use Do it to debug your blocks, see also tip 4 here App Inventor: How to Learn | Pura Vida Apps
see also Live Development, Testing, and Debugging Tools
Then use the FormatDateTime method from the Clock component and show us a Do it result of that instant you just stored in TinyDB and compare the result with what you get after using Clock.Now

Why is my 'do it' option grey? I can't select it.
You need to connect by Companion or emulator.
that is a problem because I only test my app by building it.
but didn't you told me I had to convert the timedate into millis? Also, where do I put those blocks you just sent?
Yes, because you want to store it in TinyDB
However first to have to
Therefore read again my previous answer and
Taifun
Understood but I still don't quite understood how to make 'Do it' work...
Also, sorry for all the questions but wouldn't the instant that I stored be different from the one I get on those blocks (since the clock will give the instant moment and the one I store is introduced on the timepicker by the user)?
