Step by step instructions

  • To add an eyedrop to your schedule, click on the + button.
  • Scroll down to find your drop or use the search box (need to be connected to the internet).  If you can't find your drop, click on the + button and manually enter it.
  • Select your drop and then make changes using the touchscreen.  The cap color and drop name can be edited.  Edit a specific alarm time by clicking on it.  Click the green 'Add' button when done.
  • Use the My Drops screen to edit or delete an eyedrop.  Simply click anywhere on the drop you want to change.
  • Use the Schedule screen to view your upcoming drops.  The boxes will be automatically checked off if you click "Ok" in the alert.  If needed, you can check or uncheck a box using the touchscreen.
  • Use the iPhone's notification center to see your alerts.  Swipe down from the top of your screen to open the Notification Center.  Then, click on the EyeDropAlarm alert.  Another option is to press firmly on the alert and then click on either the "Snooze" or "Ok" button.​

​Tips

  • The notifications are temporary by default. To change this, go to your iPhone's Settings and select 'Notifications'. Scroll down and select EyeDropAlarm. Click on 'Banner Style' to change from 'Temporary' to 'Persistent.'
  • The alerts can be viewed on an Apple Watch.
  • On most iPhones, the volume of the app's sound alerts is controlled by the ringer volume.  
  • Use the app's settings screen to change the alarm sound.  ​
  • You can reset the Schedule screen by going to the My Drops screen and then returning to the Schedule screen. 
  • If you administer an eyedrop before the scheduled time, use the touchscreen to check off the box for that drop.  This will cancel the future alert.
