Timers and Temperatures are now part of Care sessions when someone is unwell. The table below compares illness-focused Care with the standalone areas used for everyday logging outside a care session.
| Care | Timers / Temperatures | |
|---|---|---|
| When to use | Acute illness for one member (flu, fever, stomach bug) | Everyday logging and long-running history |
| Scope | One care session with a start (and optional end) | All readings and timers across time |
| What it combines | As-needed doses, fever log, notes, optional short courses | Each section focuses on one data type |
| Household view | Shows who is in care and what needs action | General lists and charts |
Care uses the same timer and temperature models you already know—it filters and groups them for the current episode. Doses you log in Care still respect medication spacing rules and appear in reports.
Navigation: On web, Care is in the bottom bar with Today, Family, and Medications. On mobile, Care is the default main tab; you can show separate Timers and Temperatures tabs again under Profile → Settings → Display & navigation → Timers & temperature tabs if you prefer the older layout.
Long-term dose routines and the Today screen are unchanged—Care is for unplanned illness, not replacing chronic medication schedules.
