"Every 8 hours" is harder than it sounds

A prescription that says "every 8 hours for 7 days" looks simple until you start at 2:30 p.m. on a Thursday. Now you're counting on your fingers, setting three separate alarms and trying to remember which day is the last one.

Oki works as an every 8 hours medication reminder, or every 6, every 12, or whatever interval is on your label. You choose "Every X hours," enter the interval and the time of the first dose. Oki lays out the rest of the schedule from there, and the next dose is always at the top of the Today screen.

An antibiotic reminder app that knows when to stop

Short treatments come with an end. When you add the medication, set an end date or the number of days, like 7 or 10. Reminders stop by themselves after the last dose, so you aren't left with a stray alarm going off next week.

That makes Oki a handy antibiotic reminder app, and it works the same for any fixed course: a few days of an anti-inflammatory, drops after a procedure or anything else your doctor prescribed for a set period. Each treatment keeps its own schedule, so two medications on different intervals don't get mixed up.

Night doses, missed taps and no signal

An interval schedule often lands a dose in the middle of the night. Oki reminds you of that one like any other. If you don't mark it, it reminds you again at 15 and 30 minutes. From the notification you can tap "Taken," snooze 10 minutes or skip.

Reminders are scheduled on the iPhone itself, so they go off without Wi-Fi or cell signal, whether you're on a plane or at a cabin with no reception.

If you look at the Today screen in the morning, you'll see what was taken overnight and whether anything is late.

Oki keeps the schedule. Your prescription sets it.

Oki reminds you of the schedule you enter. It doesn't decide the interval, the dose or how long to take something, and it isn't a medical device. Follow your prescription.

If you miss a dose or take one late, Oki won't tell you what to do about it. Ask your pharmacist or doctor; the right answer depends on the medication. Unlimited reminders and follow-ups are free forever.
