#IOS PILL REMINDER UPDATE#

Up to this point this is fairly basic, and doesnвЂ™t add much more to the hundreds of medication tracking apps for your smartphone. Message: 'Tucker's morning meds have not been taken!' alias: Meds have not been taken weekday alias: Mark meds as taken from notificationД®vent_type: ios.notification_action_fired The group is there to put it all in one card on the default page.

I added a condition to the meds not taken automation that it has to be before 09:00 to prevent alerts when the server restarts, and by that time IвЂ™m at work so thereвЂ™s not much that can be done about it. The automations handle resetting meds_taken after two hours (one could in theory expand upon this to have multiple time that medication should be administered), sending out a notification if the meds have not been taken and handling the notification action that comes back. There are two input_booleanвЂ™s, meds_taken manages the state of if the medication has been taken and meds_reminder is so you can turn it off in the event my son is at someone else house and I canвЂ™t really do anything about it. I spent a week tearing my hair out as to why the action buttons were not showing up.

After you do this, make sure you go into the app settings -> notification settings and tap update push settings. The first bit is adding the actionable notification to the ios component. IвЂ™ve surely not thought of all the edge cases, nor do iOS notifications get delivered 100% of the time. HereвЂ™s a little package I put together to make sure I remember to give my son his morning medication, itвЂ™s setup to alert my wife and myself before we would normally leave for school if the input_ds_taken has not been activated.ДISCLAIMER: It should be obvious, but donвЂ™t rely on this 100% to make sure your kid, grandparent, spouse, dog, neighbors dog, guy down the street (you get the picture) with a critical heart condition gets their medication.
