After you log a dose, Fever Whiz shows when the suggested next-dose window for that medication opens. The window is the time of the last dose plus the medication's interval, for example 6 hours. It is a suggestion based on the interval saved for the medication, not medical advice. Always follow the label and your pediatrician's advice.
Open your child. The Next-dose window card on the Activities tab lists each medication with a window:
A medication stays on the card until 12 hours after its window opens. If you give a dose of more than one medication, each one has its own row.
On the home screen, each child's card shows the next window to open at the bottom, for example Opens around 3:40 PM. It leaves an hour after the window opens.
The card and the home screen line are free.
Fever Whiz can show the countdown outside the app, so you can check it without unlocking your phone:
It shows the medication whose window opens next, with up to two more below it. When the window opens, it says Next-dose window open, and it leaves an hour later. Tap it to open your child in Fever Whiz.
The Lock Screen countdown is part of Fever Whiz Premium. If you don't have Premium, tap Show on Lock Screen on the Next-dose window card to see your options.
On an iPhone, the countdown appears once the window is less than 8 hours away. For a longer interval, such as 12 hours, open Fever Whiz later and it appears then.
With the Lock Screen countdown on, Fever Whiz also notifies you when the window opens, for example "The suggested next-dose window opened at 3:40 PM. You can give the next dose now." Everyone caring for your child who has the countdown on gets it, so a dose logged on another phone moves everyone's notification.
If you already have a Smart reminder for the same medication at the same time, you only get the reminder.
This only changes this phone. The card on your child's screen stays.
When your child doesn't need another dose, stop the countdown so it doesn't keep showing or notify you:
The countdown for that medication stops on the card, on the home screen and on the Lock Screen, for everyone caring for your child. Tap Undo if you tapped it by mistake. Other medications keep counting.
The countdown starts again by itself the next time you log a dose of that medication.
You can also stop it when you log the final dose, for example the last dose of an antibiotic course: turn on Last dose on the dose form before you tap Save. To start the countdown again, open that dose and turn off Last dose.
If you logged the dose for more than one person, stopping it also stops the countdown for the others, unless they've had a newer dose of that medication since. The message names everyone it stopped for.
