Reminders are scheduled for up to 60 upcoming individual doses across all profiles. Check coverage in Settings and reopen before the displayed date to refresh upcoming reminders. Notification delivery depends on device permissions and settings. Spoken instructions play inside the app; notification alerts use the device's notification sound.
