Precision routines
Create complex schedules and routines for your medications and health readings for multiple family members. Never miss a dose with smart alerts that adapt to your morning, afternoon and evening routines.
Precision routines

Daily tablets, weekly injections, warfarin with INR checks, or a child’s twice-daily antibiotic after discharge — scheduled dose routines keep recurring medications off sticky notes and in Today, beside everything else happening that day.

Build routines that match real life

For each family member and medication, define when doses should occur:

  • Once daily, twice daily, three or four times daily
  • Weekly patterns for specific weekdays
  • Hourly or custom intervals where your care plan requires them

Routines appear on Today with clear taken, missed, or upcoming states. Mobile reminders fire at scheduled times with Taken and Snooze actions.

Today shows the whole day

Today is the hub: routines for every member, plus PRN timers, readings, and Care banners when relevant. Move the date strip to review adherence yesterday or prepare for tomorrow.

Family Care unlocks unlimited calendar history on the strip. Free accounts see full detail for the last three calendar days; older days prompt to subscribe for full history.

Multiple members, multiple schedules

Track parents on blood pressure meds, children on short post-illness courses (via Care courses), and grandparents on warfarin — each with their own routines and reading reminders — without separate apps per person.

Free plan note: each member has up to three combined routine + enabled reading slots; twelve household-wide. Upgrade to Family Care for unlimited routines and readings per household.

Separate long-term routines from short courses

Everyday dose routines suit chronic and maintenance medications. Short antibiotic or antiviral courses during illness belong in Care (Family Care) so a ten-day script does not permanently alter long-term scheduling — see Care for sick days.

Notifications that respect your day

Reminders schedule locally on iPhone and Android. They open Today or accept Taken / Snooze from the lock screen. They are not a substitute for professional advice — always follow your prescriber’s directions.

Availability

Free: Scheduled dose routines within per-member and household slot limits; Today integration; mobile reminders.

Family Care: Unlimited routines and enabled readings, unlimited Today history, shared coordination, family reports.

Create your first routine

Open Family, select a member, add or edit a medication, and configure its routine times. Open Today to see the day’s schedule and enable notifications when prompted.

Medical summary and reports

Family Care
When you're at the doctor's office, "I think they had a fever on Tuesday" isn't as helpful as a precise data log. This feature transforms your daily tracking into comprehensive health reports that map out everything from routine medication adherence, showing exactly what was taken versus what was missed, to as-needed doses and symptom flares. By consolidating vitals like temperature and blood pressure into clear summaries, you provide clinicians with a complete, accurate picture of your family's health history.
