A medicine reminder that rings once and vanishes is easy to swipe away — in the middle of cooking, a meeting, or a nap — and then it’s a missed dose nobody notices. Rx101 is built around a simple rule: a reminder isn’t done until you’ve answered it.
It keeps nudging until you answer
Every dose waits for one of two answers: Taken or Skipped. Until then, Rx101 keeps following up.
- Full-screen alarms on Android, so a dose can’t hide in the notification shade.
- Snooze when you genuinely need five more minutes — the reminder comes back.
- Missed-dose guidance if a dose slips past, so you know what to do next.
Honest adherence: a skip is a choice
Sometimes the right thing is to skip a dose — your doctor said so, or you’re fasting before a test. Rx101 records a deliberate skip as your decision, not a failure, so your dose history stays truthful when you show it to your doctor.
One “Take all” for same-time medicines
Taking three tablets after breakfast shouldn’t mean three separate alarms. Medicines due at the same time are grouped into one reminder, with a single Take all — and you can still mark any one of them on its own.
Schedules that match real prescriptions
- Tablets, syrups, insulin, drops and injections.
- Before food, after food, or custom times.
- Daily, weekly and alternate-day schedules.
- Low-stock alerts and refill reminders before you run out.
Rings offline, and when you travel
Reminders are scheduled on the phone itself, so they ring on time with no internet and in airplane mode. When you cross time zones, choose whether reminders follow local time or stay on home time.
Tip for Android phones: some phone makers aggressively save battery by stopping apps in the background. If a reminder ever arrives late, open your phone’s battery settings and let Rx101 run without restrictions, and make sure “Alarms & reminders” is allowed for Rx101.
One phone, the whole family’s doses
Add a profile for each parent, child or partner. Every reminder names whose dose it is, so you never give Dad’s tablet to Mum. The caregiver’s guide.
