Frequently asked

How do I add a family member?

Open the Family tab and tap the + button in the top right. Give them a name, pick an avatar and color, and you're done. You can edit or delete a profile any time from the menu on their detail screen.

How do I add a medication or appointment?

Open the family member's profile (Family tab → tap a person) and use the "+ Add" buttons in the Medications and Appointments sections. Tap any existing row to edit it.

What do the colors on the Today tab mean?

Items are grouped by urgency: red dot = overdue, yellow = today, blue = this week, green = later. The same colors appear on individual cards based on how soon a refill or appointment is.

How does the "Write with AI" button work?

The message is generated by Apple's on-device foundation model (Apple Intelligence). Your information never leaves your iPhone. Pick a kind of message (refill request, reschedule, insurance inquiry, etc.), choose a person, optionally pick a medication or appointment for context, then tap "Write with AI". Tap Copy or Share to send it through Mail, Messages, or anywhere else.

I don't see the Write with AI option. Why?

Apple Intelligence is only available on iPhone 15 Pro / 15 Pro Max and newer, and only after you enable it in Settings → Apple Intelligence & Siri. If it isn't available, the app shows you a yellow notice and offers a built-in "Template" button instead — that one works on any iPhone with no setup.

Does the app work offline?

Yes. Every feature — tracking, viewing, message generation — runs entirely on your iPhone. The app never makes network requests.

Does it sync between my iPhone and iPad?

Not in this first release. Everything is stored locally on the device you use. iCloud sync is on the roadmap for a future update.

How do I get rid of the sample data?

The app seeds an example family (Mom and Dad with a few meds) the very first time you open it, so the screens aren't empty. Delete them from their profile menus, or use Settings → "Delete all data" to wipe everything at once. The sample data will not come back.

Does the app collect any data?

No. No analytics, no tracking, no ads, no accounts. See the Privacy Policy for details.

Is this medical advice?

No. Family Medical is an organizer for information you already keep about your family's care. It does not diagnose conditions, give medical advice, or replace any conversation with a doctor or pharmacist. Always follow the directions on your prescriptions and from your providers.
