To set up Reminders, sign in first.
This page explains how it works. The tool itself is inside your SeniorThrive account.
Most of us do not need a drill sergeant. We need a friendly voice that says, "Hey, I noticed you have not done your check-in yet," and then leaves us alone.
That is what SeniorThrive reminders are. A small nudge, on your schedule, in the way you prefer.
What SeniorThrive can remind you about
Medications. Each medicine in My Medicines can have its own reminder times. Morning pills at eight. Evening pills after dinner.
Your Daily Check-In. A reminder on your Google Calendar once a day, at whatever time works best for you.
Appointments. Events on your SeniorThrive calendar can carry a reminder.
Safety tasks. On a Room Check to-do, pick a day to work on it, and it goes on your calendar.
You decide what gets a reminder. Nothing is required.
Setting up a reminder
Most reminders are set on the thing itself, not in a separate settings page. That way they live where they make sense.
For a medication. Open My Medicines, open the medicine, choose what time you take it, and turn on Reminders.
For your Daily Check-In. Open your menu in the top corner, choose Settings, then the Devices & Setup tab, and turn on Daily check-in reminder. It puts a reminder on your Google Calendar every day at the time you choose.
For an appointment. When you add an event to your SeniorThrive calendar, the event's Reminders option lets you pick anywhere from five minutes to a day before.
How reminders arrive
On the day, the On your calendar card on My Day shows the next thing on your list and how many items you have today. Those items are today's events from your SeniorThrive calendar and your Google Calendar, your shared to-dos that are due, and, when a medicine dose is waiting, Record today's medicines. Tap See my calendar to open your calendar.
Medicine reminders can also arrive as a notification on your phone or computer. In Settings, on the Notifications tab, turn on Medication reminders on this device.
What if you miss one
Nothing bad happens. Really.
A missed reminder is not held against you anywhere, and there is no alarm.
Medications can work a little differently, if you want them to, because they matter most. On a medicine, you can turn on Tell someone if I miss this. If a dose goes unlogged for a while, SeniorThrive lets the people you pick in your Circle know, so they can check in. You pick who hears about it and how long to wait, and you can turn it off any time.
Turning reminders off
Open the thing the reminder is set on and turn it off there. For medicine reminders on this device and the emails SeniorThrive sends you, open Settings from your menu in the top corner and use the Notifications tab.
Your day, your rules.
