If you do not have the time, then you might want to ask an experienced developer to do the work for you for a small fee... I'm available...
Note: your requirements seem to be simple, but are technically a challenge, because not only you have to use itoo to have some functionality in the background, you also have to consider, that from the background you can't send sms, you will have to bring the app from the background to the foreground and send the sms from there...

Hi Taifun, your SMS Extension should technically work in the background with Itoo.
Hello again
aia files help you to share and edit a copy of one's project
that is - if you go to https://ai2.appinventor.mit.edu/#4700141227409408
and select project tab > import project (.aia) from my computer
you can import the file which i gave you
TLDR: you dont need to start from scratch, you can continue from where i left off.
so anyone who would like to take this task could find it easy to help you
I created forms for storing 3 numbers, and message text, set the groundwork for launching the background process, configured the logic for sending message
we just need to make sure that messaging works properly on background
(something might be wrong with my phone, that might be the reason why i couldnt get things working in the background)
Yes, but this project is about sending sms and this seevice is not available in background

Я проверил это приложение через MIT AI2 Companion и приложение не работает ни в фоновом режиме ( имею ввиду, когда смартфон в режиме погашенного экрана), ни в режиме открытого (на экране) приложения.
Вчера где-то прочел что вроде Tiny DB не работает в фоновом режиме, и что-то нужно другое. Может я ошибаюсь!
You are right, see:
К СОЖАЛЕНИЮ ЭТО НЕ ТАК
I used tiny dB to store info related to numbers (outside itoo processes) , all data retrieval and setting of message parameters happen outside itoo processes.
So I thought that it would be alright.
here is the logic
Ок! У вас есть мессенджеры, TELEGRAM,
WhatsApp? Для того чтобы обсудить сумму.
just use the methods StoreProperty/FetchProperty instead of TinyDB as @NishyanthKumar already mentioned
Btw. your sendMessage procedure does not really work like that, it helps to test it in the foreground
as already mentioned earlier
from the background you can't send sms, you will have to bring the app from the background to the foreground and send the sms from there...
I sent you a PM
Taifun
Стесняюсь спросить, но как посмотреть личку?
Sorry, I do not understand your question
Taifun
you can see new Personal Messages (PM) on this tab.
Have a nice day, my friend
I can certainly sympathise with your situation and I appreciate the honesty in your request for help. How-ever my education and career when I was younger once combined with what's going on in the world right now in different areas, has me concerned that this apps desired function as defined could be used without any modifaction to operate as a detonator and/or deadman switch....
yes, you can use technology for the good and the bad...
and for this use case it does not have to be so complicated... just have a button wich sends a sms...

I am not disagreeing with your statement and I can certainly understand where having an app that instantly starts to broadcast data can be extremely useful. Even in some the quieter parts of North America this could still save lives. During that earlier part of my life over 30 years ago, when I was trained to think about all the negative potentials of perfectly innocent requests for information or assistance, we thought our instructors where being way to over dramatic. Now the world is seeing what was behind the curtain of blissful ignorance. I am not saying to not help a person asking for help, I am just voicing a thought of caution about what doors a person may be opening for someone else they don't actually know.

Тебя за руку отведут с фронта. Не захочешь меняться, можешь пересидеть пока все не закончиться. Это добровольно.
Могут, насильно за руки за ноги и оттарабанят в учебку. А там будут заставлять принять присягу! Но, я ни на что не соглашусь, ничего выполнять не стану, и ничего тяжелее ложки в руки не возьму.
We are going off topic here...
