Add, edit, and delete medication reminders
The Walmart Wellness app features two types of medication reminders to help stay on top of any medication schedule:
- Daily medication reminders
- For grouping medications taken together at the same time daily (similar to a pill box).
- Preset times: 8:00 AM, 12:00 PM, 5:00 PM, 8:00 PM and can be edited to fit your schedule.
- More than one reminder time can be selected for the same medication.
- Editing daily reminders affects all medications checked to receive the reminder.
- Custom reminders:
- For individual medications taken separately.
- Editing custom reminders affects only the medication connected to the reminder.
* Reminder times are set to match the time zone indicated in your device's internal settings.
