I've created a very minimal PoC of my medication tracker.

Notifications are triggered via Cronjobs and delivered via ntfy.
They include pre-defined actions for "Taken" and "Skipped".
Those actions trigger an http call to a webhook receiver that I threw together using bash (with the help of http.sh), which logs the action into a file for documentation purposes.

This makes it as cross-platform as I need it, as I can use ntfy and the ntfy actions wherever I want. It works the best on Android, on iOS it has to briefly launch the app into the foreground and on the web I would have to modify the CORS rule to allow the domain, but possible everywhere.

Now I would like to be able to add an optional custom note each time. So maybe I'll add an action to edit the content before sending by redirecting to a little pre-filled webpage form.

This is definitely going into the direction that I want

Curious what you end up putting together. Please write about it if you do :)

I’ve done something similar but more for chores overall and not just medicine. Basic idea was
- django app/database to track everything
- nfc tags so I can checkin with my phone easily
- ‘cron’ job to send messages if I am overdue for morning/lunch/evening tasks

There's a "Compose Post" quick-tile you can add to the navigation shade, so it's available everywhere, not just when you're in the launcher.

Does that cover your use case?

@Over50butnotold Ein Bild mit Textüberlagerungen über einer Fotografie einer Person. Die Person hat blondes Haar, trägt ein beigefarbenes Sakko und blickt zur Seite, wobei ein Mikrofon im rechten unteren Vordergrund sichtbar ist. Der obere weiße Text lautet: „Italian PM Giorgia Meloni reminded the world that strong leaders don't try to please everyone. They also call out lies when they see them. Defending Italy's sovereignty, she stood her ground and told Donald Trump: 'My popularity is none of your concern. I suggest you focus on yours.'“ Ein weißer Textblock unten links enthält: „Giorgia Meloni President Trump, these constant, unprovoked attacks are senseless. As for my popularity, being your friend certainly has not helped, nor does it depend on my relationship with you. My popularity depends on my ability to defend Italy's national interest, and that is exactly what I have always done. That is also what I did regarding the American military base in Italy. Their use is governed by agreements that we have always respected, and that cannot be violated as long as I am Prime Minister. Italy remains a sovereign nation. In any case, my popularity is none of your concern. I suggest you focus on yours.“ Oben rechts befindet sich ein Wasserzeichen mit dem Text „soulseeds“ und einer kleinen italienischen Flagge.
