I’m sure I’m not the only person who struggles with their medication. I will stare at my bottle for hours trying to remember if I took it. Since I use a long release medication my day is shot if I don’t take it before 10am.
I have a smart things instance in my home for automation and put an nfc tag on my bottle cap. If I don’t scan it by 8am home assistant reminds to take my medication me every half hour until 10:30am.
The sweet part is you don’t even need home assistant. You could setup a similar task using nfc tasks or a similar phone app. Plus it’s a cheap way to remember. You can by NFC tags at dirt cheap prices!
tl;dr I’m using an nfc task to silence reminders on my phone

My red flag is that I would scan it and still forget to take my medicine 💀
Yeah, that happens from time to time or I take it and forget to scan. So it’s not perfect but helps keep me mostly medicated.
I mean hey. More often than not is always better.
