The answer

We hope there is no harm in using such a device, for it is of the nature of enjoining remembrance (dhikr) and encouraging it, and alerting from heedlessness. It falls under the verse: {And remind, for indeed, remembrance benefits the believers} (Quran 51:55), and it is a form of cooperation in righteousness and piety.
