Important fix for anyone who restarts their iPhone. If you restarted your phone, the app could open looking empty — no medications, no history, no photos — even though everything was still safely stored on the device. This update fixes that, and makes sure it can never happen again. What changed: • Your records are never overwritten. Between a restart and your first unlock, iPhone keeps app data encrypted and the app genuinely cannot read it. Pillsapp now recognises that moment instead of mistaking it for a fresh install, and it will never save over records it hasn't read. • A clear message instead of a blank app. If you open Pillsapp in that window, it now says your medications are safe and to unlock your phone — and it loads them the second you do. • Automatic backups. Pillsapp now keeps seven days of rolling on-device backups, plus a copy of your full history in your private iCloud. Your dose history previously had no off-device copy at all. • Your proof photos are self-describing. Each photo folder now carries a record of which medication and dose it belongs to. • Deleting a medication keeps its dose history instead of erasing it. • Deleting your account no longer wipes this iPhone if iCloud can't be reached — it tells you and stops, so nothing is lost by half.

This update is all about reminders you can rely on. • Fixed reminders that arrived silently. Snoozing a dose used to quietly switch off the rest of that day's reminders — it no longer does, and reminders now break through Focus properly. • Fixed reminders disappearing. A reminder that arrived while the app was open now stays in Notification Center instead of vanishing with the banner. • Fixed the "Loud (Critical)" alert tone, which played no sound at all. • Evening doses no longer lose their reminder when you take several medications a day. • Family in another country now works. Their day, their times, and their progress are shown on their clock — so a dose taken in the evening no longer looks like "nothing scheduled" to someone hours ahead. • Widgets keep themselves up to date, including after midnight, instead of waiting for you to open the app. • The Today screen only asks you to take a dose when one is actually due. Otherwise it confirms the dose you just took and tells you when the next one is.

Redesigned Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets — your medications' own colors, a live countdown, a clear overdue look, and a family view that turns red when someone you care for needs a check-in. Also in this update: • The Today screen now always shows the dose that needs you first — an overdue morning dose is never hidden behind tonight's. • Tapping "Taken" on a reminder now opens the photo check for photo-proof medications. • Undoing a logged dose brings its reminders and calls right back. • Many small fixes for smoother daily use.
