RxRemindersHistory and exports
History shows who recorded a dose and when. You can export a copy for free. Import adds missing information without changing or deleting records already on the device.
Read the history
Open the person’s History to review their dose record. Open a dose’s details for more context. Each entry identifies who recorded it.
App steps
Can I see who recorded a dose, and can history be changed?
Every dose in the history says who recorded it. History isn’t edited after the fact: you can correct only a dose you recorded yourself, and the app says what still counts.
- On Today, tap a dose, then Dose details.
- To remove a dose you recorded, open it from Today and tap Remove from log.
Save an export
In Settings, choose Summary and backup. Select who to include and save the file somewhere you control. The file contains medication and dose information; share it only with the people you choose.
App steps
How do I export my data?
Export saves everyone’s medications and doses to a file, free whatever your plan. Importing a file adds what isn’t here yet, and never changes or removes anything already on your iPhone.
- In Settings, tap Summary and backup, then Export….
- Choose who’s included, then tap Export and save the file.
- To bring a file back in, tap Import… on the same screen and choose the file.
Move to another device
If you use iCloud, wait for existing profiles to sync on the new device before adding them again. You can also import an export file. Adding another person through import follows the same subscription rules as adding them by hand.
Check a possible duplicate
Compare the profiles before deciding. Merge them if they represent the same person; keep both if they are different people. A merge keeps each dose once and tells you how many were recorded in both copies.
App steps
What if the same person shows up twice?
When a person on this iPhone, or in a file you import, looks like someone already here, the app holds that copy and doesn’t sync it until you check. Merging keeps each dose once and says how many were recorded on both. If they’re different people, both stay.
- In People, find the person waiting to be checked and tap Check.
- Compare the two copies and, where they differ, pick which details to keep.
- Tap Merge into one to make them one person, or They're different people to keep both.
- You can also start from Settings: tap Privacy and data, then Check.
Read information from Health
The journal shows the Health user’s recent readings for context. Those readings do not change a dose, limit, or reminder. When you import medications, you still need to enter schedule details that Health does not share.
App steps
Can I see my Health readings in the app?
The journal shows the Health user’s blood pressure, blood glucose, weight and heart rate from Health for the last 30 days, by day. It’s there for context only: nothing in it changes a dose, a limit or a reminder.
- In People, tap your name, then Details & sharing.
- Turn on This is the Health user if it isn’t on already.
- Tap Journal. The first time, Health asks which readings to share.
App steps
Can I bring in medications I track in Apple Health?
Yes, for the adult who is the Health user on this iPhone. You choose which medications Health shares and who each one is for, then set its times here, since Health doesn’t share schedules. RxReminders writes nothing to Health.
- On your page, tap Details & sharing and turn on This is the Health user.
- Tap Import medications from Health, then Choose medications in Health, and choose the medications to share.
- For each one, pick who it’s for under For, tap Add, and set its schedule.
- If the app says it may already be a medication here and it is, tap It’s the same instead.
