What's New in Medication Reminder
2.0.0
October 7, 2026
Your dose, on the lock screen • A Live Activity appears when a dose is due (iOS 26): the medication's photo or icon, its name, the dose, how many you have done today, and a red counter of how long it has been waiting. Tap it to open the dose. • It lives in the Dynamic Island too: icon and counter when compact, the full card when you hold it. • It is scheduled ahead, so it shows up even when the app is not open, and it leaves on its own once the dose is taken or skipped. A block that can wait • On iOS 26.4 and later, the block screen's second button is now "Remind me later": five minutes, twenty minutes, or unlock for this dose. • A snooze lifts the block for exactly that long. The block returns on time, with a reminder. • Snoozing from the app, from a reminder or from the block screen all end on the same minute, so the reminder, the block and the dose screen always agree. The dose screen • Take, and a Snooze menu with five, ten or twenty minutes. While a snooze runs, the screen says when the reminder is coming. • Take at… and Skip sit in a small menu beside the dose's status. • Dose rows on Today and Schedule lost their big green button: Take is the first item of the row's menu, so a thumb can no longer mark a dose taken by mistake. The row itself opens the dose. • The day's count now covers only the doses that will remind you; a paused medication's dose is listed but not counted. Permissions at a glance • The banners for notifications, critical alerts and app blocking have a new look, and now agree with each other on every tab. • A Critical Alerts banner appears only when one of your doses is marked critical and the permission is off. • Banners update the moment you come back from Settings. Fixes • Reminders already on the lock screen are cleared when a dose's time changes or the dose is done. • One reminder at the end of a snooze, not two. • A finished medication, and medications on specific dates or as needed, are no longer asked for a stock quantity. • Editing a medication opens on its saved icon instead of animating to it. • The Medications list shows no "Next" dose for paused or finished medications. • Dates & Times lands on the chosen day a little sooner. • Promotions on the paywall show the price before the sale struck through beside the real one.
