Use case · Medication

Medication reminders that loop in a caregiver when a dose is missed.

A normal medication reminder fires once and goes quiet. RemindRelay treats a dose as an open loop: if it is not acknowledged, it escalates — a louder nudge, then a text, then a trusted family member or caregiver — so a missed dose does not pass silently.

RemindRelay is not a medical device and is not for emergency, clinical, or life-critical use. Reminders are accountability nudges, not monitoring or care, and delivery is best-effort. See the Terms and FAQ.

The problem with one-and-done reminders

The doses that matter most are the easiest to miss — you are in the shower, the phone is on silent, the notification gets swiped half-asleep. A single alert assumes firing equals acknowledging. For medication, that gap is exactly where adherence breaks down.

How escalation helps adherence

You set the policy once: which channels, how long to wait, and whether a person is ever involved. RemindRelay climbs only as far as it needs to and stops the instant the dose is acknowledged with a single tap. Quiet when things are fine; insistent only when they are not.

Bringing a caregiver in — with consent

Trusted contacts and caregivers opt in before they can be escalated to, and they are looped in only at the tier you choose. A caregiver sees a calm, consent-based notification — never a surprise — and one acknowledgement closes the loop for everyone.

Channels that fit

Push Notification

The first, quietest tap on the shoulder.

SMS

A text that lands even when the app is closed.

Voice Call

When silence is not an option, the phone rings.

Tier 4 · Human

FAQ

Common questions.

Is RemindRelay a medical device?

No. RemindRelay is a productivity and accountability tool, not a medical device, not clinical advice, and not for emergency or life-critical use. Never rely on it for safety-critical medication management.

Will it text my family every time?

No. A person is only involved at the tiers you configure, and trusted contacts must consent first. A single acknowledgement stops the entire chain immediately.

What channels can a medication reminder use?

Push, SMS, WhatsApp, email, an automated voice call, and trusted-contact / caregiver alerts — in whatever order and timing you set.

Does it guarantee the reminder is delivered?

No. Delivery is best-effort across third-party networks (push, carriers, email) and can be delayed or fail. Do not depend on any single channel for critical doses.
