Petive reminder notification above the daily care screen
Care Schedule powers reminders on the iPhone where notifications are allowed.

Before you start

  • Allow Petive notifications on the iPhone that should receive the alert.

Steps

  1. Open reminder settings

    Open Settings & Preferences, then choose “Daily Reminders & Push Alerts.”

  2. Open Shared Care Schedule

    Choose “Shared Care Schedule,” then select the intended pet when more than one is available.

  3. Tap Add care time

    Choose the activity, give the reminder a clear name, and select the date or time.

  4. Choose how it repeats

    Set Repeat to Once, Daily, Weekdays, or Interval. Selected weekdays and interval hours or days are available when those patterns are chosen.

  5. Add instructions and save

    Add an optional care note. Medication entries can store caregiver-entered dose wording and instructions, but Petive does not calculate or recommend doses. Tap “Save.”

What happens next

The new care time appears in Care Schedule and Petive schedules eligible device-based notifications.

Good to know

  • Notification delivery depends on iOS permission and the settings of each device.
  • Interval schedules accept a caregiver-entered number of hours or days from 1 to 30.

Troubleshooting
