Help
Instead of a long manual, this page covers the places people actually get stuck. Anything else, please get in touch.
1. Getting started
- Create an item. On the Calendar screen, open the ‘Medications’ tab and enter a name and a short label. Keep the short label to 1–4 characters so it still reads when colour is not visible.
- Record what you took. On the Calendar screen, open the ‘Record’ tab and tap an item once — it is recorded at the current time.
- Add reminders if you want them. In the ‘Reminders’ tab, create a time such as “Morning” for things you take together, then attach items to it.
A schedule (daily, every N days, weekdays, monthly) only decides whether today is a day. What time it rings is decided by the reminder settings. They are two different things.
2. Reminders are not firing
Common causes, in the order that is easiest to check.
- Notification permission is off on the device. Turn it on in the device Settings → Apps → Notifications. This is by far the most common cause.
- A quiet-hours window covers that time. If the reminder screen says “muted by quiet hours” next to that time, this is the case.
- The app has not been opened for a long time. Only a fixed number of reminders can be scheduled ahead — opening the app refills them.
- You are using a web browser. Browsers restrict notifications more than apps do. This is especially true for a Safari tab on iPhone that has not been added to the Home Screen.
- A ‘missed’ reminder only fires when nothing was recorded. If you already recorded it, staying silent is the correct behaviour.
The “Today it will ring like this” preview on the reminder screen shows what is actually scheduled. If it is not listed there, it was never scheduled; if it is listed but did not fire, the device blocked it.
3. My records are missing on another device
The sync badge at the top of the screen states the current situation.
- “Stored on this device only” — no account is linked. Your records never leave this device. Link one under Menu → Account and they will appear on your other devices from then on.
- “Sending” — not yet on the server. Wait a moment, or press ‘Send now’ under Menu → Account.
- “Failed to send” — the network or the sign-in dropped. Press ‘Retry’, and contact us if it persists.
4. “Today” is counted differently from the date
This is the day start hour under Menu. The default is 04:00, and anything recorded before it counts as the previous day — for most people, something taken at 2am belongs to “yesterday”.
Changing this changes the denominator of the calendar and the statistics wholesale. The menu screen shows which date counts as “today” right below the setting, so check it there.
5. Exporting or deleting my records
- Export — Menu → My data → Export records. You get JSON or CSV.
- Unlink account — erases the records on this device. What is on the server stays.
- Delete everything — erases records on the server and on the device. This cannot be undone. See Account and data deletion.

Please include the value shown under Menu → About → Version — it makes problems much faster to find. For something that does not reproduce, attach the file from Menu → My data → Export diagnostics. That file contains no item names, short labels, or notes — what you take does not leave your device.
