On iPhone and Android, when a dose reminder appears, you may see actions such as:

  • Taken — Log that the dose was given (subject to your account syncing).
  • Snooze — Get reminded again after a short delay (for example, ten minutes).
  • Open — Jump into the app to review details.

These actions require notification permission and are not available on the website as push alerts—see Push notifications (mobile only).
