NagRX keeps alerting you with sound and haptics until you acknowledge each dose. No more missed medications.
Everything you need to stay on top of your medication schedule.
NagRX re-alerts you every few minutes with full-volume audio and strong haptics until you respond. Configurable from 1 to 10 minutes.
Alarm audio plays through a background audio session, so you'll hear it even when your phone is on silent or locked.
Set reminders daily, on specific days of the week, or monthly. Choose a specific day, the first day, or the last day of each month.
Add widgets in five sizes. When a medication is due, the widget turns red. Tap it to dismiss the alarm instantly.
Choose from 10 distinct alert sounds. Set a default or assign a unique sound to each medication so you know which one is due.
Aggressive staccato vibration patterns that repeat for up to 5 minutes. Impossible to sleep through.
Enter each medication with its name, time, frequency (daily, weekly, or monthly), and preferred alert sound.
When it's time, NagRX fires a notification with audio and haptics. If you don't respond, it keeps re-alerting at your configured interval.
Long-press the notification and tap "I Took It" to dismiss, or "Snooze 15 min" to be reminded again shortly. Tapping the banner itself also snoozes.
Glance at your home screen or lock screen widget to see if any medications are due. Tap the widget to dismiss all active alarms.
NagRX needs to stay in the background to deliver reliable alerts.
NagRX plays alarm audio through a background audio session. This is what allows it to bypass silent mode and deliver loud alerts even when your phone is locked. If you swipe the app away in the app switcher, iOS terminates that session and alarms will fall back to standard notification sounds that respect the silent switch.
For the most reliable experience, leave NagRX running in the background at all times.
10 built-in tones so you can pick the one that gets your attention.
