Support! I can't tell you how many times I've forgotten to apply it. Half the time, I don't mind. But there have been a few times where it, Uber, or Hypermode has poofed in the middle of a bonus day or PKRS, and I don't notice for several minutes, or worse, several hours. Having a reminder would be so very helpful!

If I remember correctly, this was one of the things that custom notifications were made to address. I feel like the current custom notification system works just fine for shiny charm reminders, considering the hunt-by-hunt nature of shiny charm usage
farm -> options -> notifications. Very easy to set up and repeat.

@Morzone: The main (but not only - see the later part of my post) problem with this solution is that the custom notifications are one-time-only. There's currently no way to set them so they automatically repeat, let's say, daily and always at the same time. You need to constantly add a new notification every day for the next day. "But you can add several of them in bulk in one go" you may say. But the thing is that it's not a completely viable option either - if on one day you open PFQ later than usual (because you've been busy with something) and activate your charm later than normal then on the next day you'll have your notification pop up way earlier than you need it to and you either dismiss it (by opening the relevant page) or will have to ignore it and it's very likely you'll ultimately forget about using a new charm in both cases. And to prevent this from happening you'd have to edit all the notifications you already made. Yeah, that doesn't sound that good now, am I right?
While I'm not actively playing right now there were many (waaay too many) instances when I hatched a party or two without realising my Charm had already died. And before somebody says that's just a "me" problem - well, I'm pretty sure all Melan hunters who are using their Shiny Charms daily would appreciate this addition. It would save them some stress at these occasions (because, you know, "it was just one party of Eggs but what if one of them would hatch as a Melan if I just used that Shiny Charm on time?")

Full support!
The amount of times I hatched several parties without realizing that I didn't have an active shiny charm is too high.
