How it works
- Message the bot once: “remind me to take my thyroid tablet every morning at 7:30”.
- Get pinged in chat: the reminder arrives as a normal WhatsApp/Telegram message at 7:30 daily.
- Reply to manage it: “done”, “snooze 20 min”, or “stop this reminder” — all in plain language.
Why chat beats a pill app
- No new app for grandma. If they can read WhatsApp messages, they can receive medication reminders. Set it up for them with “remind @mom…”.
- Notifications people actually read. WhatsApp messages get opened; silent app notifications do not.
- Recurring by default. “Every day at 9am”, “every Monday and Thursday”, “every 8 hours” — one sentence each.
- A record you can search. Ask “when did I start the antibiotics?” — semantic search finds it.
Frequently asked questions
How do I get medication reminders on WhatsApp?
Message MemoryPing something like “remind me to take blood pressure medicine every day at 9am”. It confirms the schedule and pings you on WhatsApp daily. Reply “done” or snooze right in the chat.
Can I set medicine reminders for my parents?
Yes — “remind @mom to take her tablets at 8pm daily” sends the reminder to her chat, not yours. She does not need to set anything up herself.
