The Repeat setting decides which days and times a routine's doses come due. You'll find it under When when you create or edit a routine.
| Repeat option | Use it for | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Every day | Daily medicine at the same times | 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM |
| Certain days of the week | Doses on set weekdays | Monday and Thursday |
| Every few days, weeks or months | Regular gaps | Every 3 weeks |
| Certain dates of the month | Monthly preventives | The 1st |
| A number of times per week or month | Goals on any days | Teeth brushing 3 times a week |
| A set time after the last dose | Doses timed from the previous one | Every 8 hours after the last dose |
| Changes over time (like a taper) | Doses that step down or up | A steroid taper |
Certain dates of the month
Tick each date. If you pick the 29th, 30th or 31st, the dose falls on the last day in shorter months.
A number of times per week or month
Set how many times, and whether it's per week or per month. You can do it on any days. Care shows a goal card with progress, like "1 of 3 this week", until the goal is met. Weeks run Monday to Sunday.
Instead of a reminder at fixed times, set Nudge me at. Recall only nudges you on days you'd otherwise fall behind.
A set time after the last dose
Set First dose at, then how long after each dose the next one is due, in hours, days, weeks or months. Each dose is timed from when the previous one was actually given, so a late dose moves the next one later too. If you log a dose late, use Adjust and set the real Time given so the next one is timed correctly.
Changes over time
Use this when the amount changes on a schedule, like a taper. Set up a taper or changing dose.
Tip: Before saving, check the NEXT DOSES preview. If it says there are no upcoming doses, check the times, days and dates.
