9/19/2022

Reminders can help us stay on track and on-time for appointments, taking medications, blood pressure, and other tasks that we may easily forget about. Some medications and other health trackers may need to be taken or used around the same time each day for consistency and accuracy.

iPhone:
  • Alarms can be labeled and set on a recurring basis.
  • The Reminder app can be used to keep notifications on based on location, time, and urgency of the reminder
  • The Calendar can be used to set appointments and tasks. Within these appointments and tasks, there can be reminders and alerts set as well.
  • The Focus feature can be scheduled and used to help limit distractions and wind down before completing a particular task.

Android:
  • Alarms can be labeled and set on a recurring basis.
  • The Calendar can be used to set appointments and tasks. Within these appointments and tasks, there can be reminders and alerts set as well.
  • A Do Not Disturb Schedule to help limit distractions and wind down before completing a particular task.
  • The Reminder app can be used to keep notifications on based on location, time, alert style, and urgency of the reminder

Alexa and Home Assistant Devices:
Your home assistant can be set to remind you about your alarms and appointments. Address your Alexa or Google Assistant by name and ask it to set a reminder. It will walk you through the steps and ask various questions to assist.

Reminder Apps:
There are various smartphone apps that can be downloaded to help with reminders as well if the above options don’t seem to work best for your individual needs. A simple search for ‘Reminder Apps’ can be completed on the Apple App store or Google Play store.

We hope these tips and tricks help! If you have suggestions or recommendations for setting reminders and staying on track, please feel free to share with our office.
