How does stuff like that work, wont it require consistency from the user which is something people with adhd are bad at.
I use lists but the amount of times i literally fail to put everything on the list is ridiculous.
It requires less consistency I think. You have to set it up once. Then you have to input each time you get more meds to update your stock. That isn't too often either but you need to be consistent in that.
In return you don't need to remember by yourself when to get new meds. And you don't need to remember all by yourself to take your meds everyday, maybe even multiple times a day.
Sounds like a good deal to me.
It's quite good at pestering you, without being obnoxious about it. This means that you are less likely to dismiss it, rather than snooze it.
The reorder is automatic. Tell it at the beginning how many you have, and when to alert you. It does the rest. Once you refill, you tell it, and it stops pestering you.
It's managed to strike the balance quite well.
