What is the Medication Timer Chrome extension?

The Medication Timer Chrome extension is a side panel companion for desktop Chrome. Sign in with the same Medication Timer account you use on web or mobile, then keep live as-needed dose countdowns visible while you browse.

Install it from the Chrome Web Store.

It is designed for a quick glance at dose spacing (too soon, better wait, or okay to give) and who the dose is for, without leaving your browser. Tapping a timer opens the matching item in the full Medication Timer app (web, or mobile when Universal Links apply).

What it is not

  • It does not replace the web or mobile apps. You still add timers, Care sessions, routines, and temperatures there.
  • It does not send push notifications. For lock-screen reminders, use the mobile app.
  • It does not diagnose conditions or replace medical advice. Always follow your clinician and the medicine label.
