Have an alert that an aircraft is approaching minimums

It’s happened to me multiple times now where I’ll tell an aircraft to “continue approach,” and sort of forget about it as I get swamped by dealing with other aircraft. Then, I’ll hear “going around” from said aircraft on approach as it reaches its minimums seemingly without warning. In real life, if a pilot is approaching minimums and ATC still hasn’t cleared them for landing, it’s very common for them to clarify and ask, “is aircraft 123 cleared for landing?” It would be nice have some sort of alert that an aircraft is approaching minimums on approach because it is very easy to forget.
