Examples
Three common scenarios
These examples map the support topic to everyday medication, vitamin, and routine tracking situations.
Example 1
Daily vitamin
Add Vitamin D3, set 08:30, and keep the reminder simple so it becomes part of breakfast.
Example 2
Birth control
Add Birth Control Pill, set the same evening time every day, and turn on notifications before the first dose.
Example 3
Two-dose routine
Add one morning time and one evening time so the Today screen can separate upcoming and taken doses.
Common mistakes
What throws people off
- Skipping notification permission after setup.
