Hi and welcome to WPCentral :smile:

Alerts on WP8 are one-off sounds - there's no repeat function for unacknowledged notifications. I've not seen any apps that do this, in fact I have a suspicion that it wouldn't be possible to code an app for this on WP8. No doubt someone will come along and prove me wrong :smile:

Just set it to show the counter on your lock screen and check your screen every so often =/

bummer, hope someone can come up with an app for that.

For me, gleek does the notification about every half hour until I check it. Not an ideal amount of time, but it is better than no repetition.


As for the problem the OP has, I'm sorry to say I have no idea of an app that will do that for SMS.
