❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Is my data private?
Absolutely! All your data is stored locally on your device using Apple's SwiftData framework. We don't have servers, we don't collect analytics, and we don't have access to your information. Your health data never leaves your device.
Can I track multiple medications?
The free version lets you track 1 medication. With Premium, you can add unlimited medications—each with its own schedule, reminders, and tracking history.
How do reminders work?
FocusDose uses local notifications to remind you to take your medication. You can set up simple daily reminders or use advanced scheduling with specific days, intervals, active hours, and auto-calculated optimal times.
What if I forget to log a dose?
No problem! You can manually add a dose log by tapping on your medication and selecting "Add Past Dose" to backdate an entry.
Can I export my data?
Yes! Premium users can generate PDF reports of their medication history, focus trends, and side effects to share with their healthcare provider.
Do I need an account?
No account required! FocusDose works completely offline. Just download and start using it immediately.
What happens if I delete the app?
Your data is stored locally, so deleting the app will remove all your data. Make sure to export any reports you need before uninstalling. There's no way to recover data after deletion since we don't store it on servers.
Is FocusDose a medical device?
No. FocusDose is a tracking and logging tool, not a medical device. It does not provide medical advice, diagnoses, or treatment recommendations. Always consult with your healthcare provider for medical decisions.
What's included in Premium?
Premium ($4.99/month or $39.99/year) includes: unlimited medications, smart timing suggestions with crash risk warnings, energy and restlessness tracking, focus trend charts, doctor-ready PDF reports, and interval-based scheduling. The free version includes single medication tracking, dose logging, focus check-ins, side effect logging, and daily reminders. There's a 7-day free trial to try it all.

🔧 Troubleshooting

Notifications Not Working

1. Go to iPhone Settings > Notifications > FocusDose
2. Make sure "Allow Notifications" is enabled
3. Check that Focus/Do Not Disturb isn't blocking notifications
4. Try deleting and re-adding the reminder in the app

App Crashes or Freezes

1. Make sure you're running the latest version of FocusDose
2. Restart your iPhone
3. If the issue persists, delete and reinstall the app (note: this will erase local data)
4. Contact support if the problem continues

Charts Not Displaying Correctly

Make sure you have enough data logged. Charts require at least 3-5 data points to display properly. Try logging more focus entries or doses.
