== The list ==
Each reminder is a card showing its icon, label, a one-line schedule summary (e.g. "8:00 AM · 8:00 PM · Weekdays"), and any dose note. A toggle on the right turns that reminder on or off; the flip is optimistic and reconciles with the server. Tap a card to edit it. Before you've made any, an empty "No Standing Orders" state offers an '''Add Reminder''' button. Pull down to refresh.
== Creating a reminder ==
Tap the '''+''' in the top corner to open the editor.
+ * '''Type''' — choose Water, Medication, Weigh-in, Vitals or Custom. (Type is fixed once created; each type carries its own icon and default label.)
+ * '''Label''' — a name for the reminder.
+ * '''Schedule''' — pick '''At set times''' to list specific clock times (add up to 12), or '''On an interval''' to fire every so often (15 minutes up to 12 hours) inside a From–Until window.
+ * '''Days''' — weekday chips let you pick which days it runs; the footer summarizes them ("Every day", "Weekdays", "Weekends", or the specific days).
+ * '''Note''' — an optional note, up to 240 characters. For medications the field prompts for a dose note like "500 mg with food."
+ * '''Deliver via''' — toggles for '''Push notification''' and '''Email'''.

* '''Deliver via'''. Toggles for '''Push notification''' and '''Email'''.
Tap '''Add''' to save. Editing an existing reminder shows the same form plus a '''Delete reminder''' option (with a confirmation).
== Delivery settings ==
Below the list is a '''DELIVERY''' card with the preferences the sending engine reads:
+ * '''Reminders''' — a master switch. Turning it off pauses everything; individual schedules keep their own toggle on top of it.
+ * '''Time zone''' — the zone your times are interpreted in. If your device is in a different zone, a "Use device time zone" shortcut offers to match it.
+ * '''Quiet hours''' — an optional window (defaulting to 22:00–07:00) during which no pushes are sent. Missed nudges inside the window aren't replayed later. Turn it on and set the From/Until times with the pickers.

== Turning on notifications ==
+ The app doesn't ask for notification permission at launch. Instead, the first time you save a reminder it shows a '''Field Updates''' explainer — "Turn on notifications? We'll nudge you when a dose is due or a message lands — nothing else." Tap '''Turn on''' to hand off to the system permission dialog, or '''Not now'''. If you decline, the app remembers and won't ask again on its own; it only offers this while iOS has never shown the system prompt. (The same explainer also appears the first time you send a direct message.)

Once you allow notifications, the app registers your device with the tenant so the server can reach it, re-checking quietly on launch and when the app returns to the foreground. Actual delivery of reminders happens server-side; the app just sets the schedule and preferences.
== Smart delivery ==
Two things happen on the server so your notifications stay useful rather than noisy:
+ * '''Adaptive reminders''' — a weigh-in or vitals reminder is automatically skipped for the day once you've already logged that number. If you weigh in first thing in the morning, the later "time to weigh in" nudge won't fire, so you're never told to do something you've already done.
+ * '''Your Weekly Field Report''' — once a week (Sunday evening, in your time zone) you get a short summary notification recapping the week: your weight trend, how many days you logged, your average sleep, and your best-mood day, with a nudge to keep building the case. It only goes to active members who have allowed notifications. Open it to jump back into the app and see the full picture in [[Trends on iOS]].
