Step 1
Open You
Tap your picture at the top right, then Notifications, then Add.
Reminders
A pill reminder app that keeps your lock screen private
Add a medication, a supplement or HRT with its times. When one is due you get a plain reminder, tap Taken from the notification, and the dose goes into your history.
The short answer
Her Good Days is a free medication reminder app for pills, supplements and hormone therapy. You set each schedule, the phone reminds you with text that never names the medicine, and one tap on Taken logs the dose.
Around a dose time, Medication moves to the top of your Log menu. Taken doses show in your weekly summary and the doctor report.
What can you get reminded about?
| Reminder | Typical schedule |
|---|---|
| A daily pill, including the contraceptive pill | The same time every day |
| Supplements: vitamin D, iron, prenatal vitamins | Once or twice a day, at the times you pick |
| HRT patch, gel or tablets | Daily, or on set days for a patch change |
| Evening check-in | A time you pick |
| Weekly summary | Once a week, when it is ready |
| Weigh-in, wind-down, workout days | Weekly or daily, your choice |
| Pregnancy appointments and kick counts | From your own entries |
Taken or skipped, from Today
Each dose shows its time and amount. Tap Taken or Skipped, and Your list keeps every medicine and supplement with its schedule.
What you add
A name, an optional dose, what it is (a pill or tablet, a supplement, an HRT patch, gel or tablet, or something else), one or more times, and the days. A patch change can be one day a week.
Add one in a minute
Step 2
Name it, pick the times
Choose the days too, such as a patch change every Sunday.
Step 3
Tap Taken
When it rings, mark it on the notification or in the app. A missed dose stays open, with no red.
What does the lock screen show?
The same few lines for everyone: "Time for your scheduled reminder", "Time for your check-in", "Your weekly summary is ready". Nobody glancing at your phone learns that you take HRT, that you are pregnant or what you weigh.
What happens if I miss a dose?
The entry stays open until you mark it taken or skipped. There is no warning color and no streak to lose. Your history shows the gap, which is useful to mention at your next appointment.
Who uses which reminders
| Stage | Typical reminders |
|---|---|
| Menopause | An HRT patch change on set days. Medication or HRT joins the top five once it has a schedule. |
| After menopause | Vitamin D in the morning plan, plus any medication for bones or blood pressure |
| Trying to conceive | Prenatal vitamins every day, kept under More in the Log menu |
Which notifications can I get?
All of them sit under You, Notifications, each with its own switch.
| Notification | When |
|---|---|
| Daily check-in | At the time you pick, off until you turn it on |
| Medication, workout, wind-down | At the times you set for each one |
| Weekly summary ready | Once a week |
| News and updates | Now and then, about the app |
| Shop offers | A few a month at most, only if you turn it on |
Quiet hours, 9 PM to 8 AM, hold them back overnight.

Questions
Will the notification name my medication?
No. It reads "Time for your scheduled reminder". The name only shows inside the app, after you unlock your phone.
Do reminders work without internet?
Yes. They are scheduled on your phone, so they arrive in airplane mode and when you have no signal.
Can I set a reminder that isn't daily?
Yes. Pick the days of the week, or every few days for something like a patch change.
Does the app check doses or drug interactions?
No. It reminds and records what your prescriber or pharmacist told you to take. Ask them about doses and interactions.
Is it free?
Yes, with no limit on the number of medications or reminders.
