I gave my parent a Honor 7, and I installed a medication reminder app in the phone to help to remind my parent when to take his medication.
I first installed an app called "Medisafe Meds & Pill Reminder" from Google Play. After setup everything and test it on the spot by creating a dummy medication and set the time about 5 minutes later. I then locked the phone and watch. The app reminder does appears and everything seems normal so I let my parent start to use it on daily basic.
However just after a few days, the app fails to give any kind of reminder again. I tried uninstall and re-install. During on-the-spot testing it works fine but in real usage it just does not give any reminder at all.
So I have given up and tried another app called "My PillBox(Meds&Pill Reminder)" from Google Play. I did the same setup and testing like the previous one. Unfortunately the same issue occurs for this app as well, in real usage it fails to give any sort of reminder.
Out of my curiosity I try to install the "My PillBox(Meds&Pill Reminder)" in my own Sony Xperia Z3 and it working perfectly fine in my phone. I do a few trials and errors with the Honor 7 to determine what actually went wrong. I find out that, if I was to clear the app from the background, then the app will never give any reminder. If I was to keep it in the background, it will work fine.
That is quite annoying because in my Xperia Z3 this tedious procedure is not needed. The app works in my Xperia Z3 regardless of whether I let the app running in the background or not.
I then install "Autostart and StaY!" in the Honor 7, so that upon boot up the medication reminder app will automatically launch. However since my parent has the habit of clearing the background app, so as soon as he did this action the medication reminder app fails to give reminder again.
I need help on how to make this medication app work normally in my parent's Honor 7. Work normally as in the case of my Xperia Z3, where it works regardless of it is in the background or not.
Can someone offer any idea on what can I do to solve this issue? I am not sure whether this is an app bug or the Honor 7 OS bug.
And can other Honor 7 user try this medication app on your own phone and see whether it works normally in your Honor 7?
Remark: My Honor 7 is not rooted. I do not intend to neither because my parent is not a gadget geek.
Maybe you should add the application to the list of protected apps? You can find this feature in settings.

Hi there.
Yes I already make sure I did that. But it does not help. My battery management is set to Performance also, so everything should be running at full mode.
My cousin encountered the same problem with What'sApp. The problem was that he had the habit of killing all background apps manually every once in a while. Even if the app is protected, killing it manually leads to nog receive any notification. After some tests, I noticed that Whatsapp was the only app with this behaviour. Killing Facebook for example didn't change anything and notifications appeard anyway.
I don't think that this is your problem bu I discovered that this is due to bad coding from the developpers. Just try another medication app should do the trick.

Thanks for sharing the info.
I am currently facing another greater problem, my honor 7 suddenly can't be charged while it is turned on. I am going to open another thread regarding that to ask for help.
As for this medication reminder app thing, after I sort out that charging problem I think I will give it another try on other medication reminder app. Hopefully I will bump into one that works with Honor 7.

There are some applications, that demands your phone to be rooted. But i think here a normal reinstall to the application can work. If not, just reset the phone. If you don't want to, look for an alternate application.
This is very serious, you need a proper Mobile App
Friend, this is very serious you need a good pill reminder app for your parent.
I suggest you approach a Mobile App Development Company with a very strong portfolio for your requirement. Space-O Technologies is one such company you should look out for. Do fill their contact form for a free consultation.
I wish you all the best.
I use several news apps such as Guardian, Business Insider, BBC news and Flipboard however none of them seem to load any articles. Has anyone experienced that before and was able to find a solution? I pretty much had this problem instantly when I purchased the mate pro 10
defreeze chrome, and set it to ignore battery optimisation
Sorry not sure I understand. What has defreezing Chrome and battery optimalisation have to do with the apps not loading but if yes, how donIndo this?
Mate 10 or 10 Pro? Firmware in 10 Pro is buggy .. eagerly waiting for an update to remedy. Simplest workaround is to do a screen autorotate to update widgets .. might also work for you.
hi folks, I have a Mate 20x bought off ebay (should be Chinese version)
I am in US
I have a big issue, which is the notification from my home security apps (ring/arlo)
1. the notification setting for these two apps is often changed anonymously by the system, thus I often miss notifications
2. there is no pushed notification shown at locked screen, although there is sound alert. I need to drag down to see what notification has come up
3. when phone is switched off at night and switched back on in the mornign, no notification from ring/arlo for last night would show up. I will need to open the apps and check history.
This has been a concerning issue for me as today I missed the postman who has an important package. Did anyone has a solution?
also a minor issue, google map would not speak street name, and google assistant could not be summoned at lock screen. But compared with the notification issue, these are more minor.
I have the same issue with the ring app. I talk to support and the say the app its not fully compatible with android 9.0. I have and via twitter the say the 360 security system is blocking something. But I can't disable the app.
Huawei says that they cant help because each model in this Chinese one it's made for other kind of service. The I don't find any logical explanation in that. I have because that means no one in China can have a functional ring service.
I think this it's an ring app issue but they don't care about this issue.
Did you remove Ring from battery optimization? I have ring, and most of the time it works. Its just i cannot assign a ringtone provided by ring, it has to be stock huawei ones..
For years this has been my go to forum to find answers to many of my questions and luckily I have always found solutions without having to ask questions, but I knew there was a time where I would have to start placing questions and here is my first one.
I have the above mentioned phone and have recently installed Android Messages. The reason for that is that my other half has got herself a Pixel 3a and with that she also has the same default SMS app.
we noticed that we could use it like iMessage on iOS if both of use the same SMS app.
The problem I have is that with my Redmi, the Android Messages app never starts with the Chat Feature activated. After each reboot (which happens every morning as I turn the phone off during the night), I have to go into the Android Messages settings and force the Chat feature to on. In fact when I get there I see the message that my phone isn't compatible with the feature, but after a few seconds of waiting it does show it as available, but it is switched off. This happens every morning.
I have been trying to find a solution for this and came across someone with a similar problem which he fixed by deactivating his phone's native SMS app which apparently was interfering with the Android Messages app.
I don't know how and if it is even possible to deactivate the default SMS app on a Redmi phone, I don't see any options for that. What I have done was to remove all the permissions for the default app, but it still doesn't solve my problem.
Is there anyone who might have managed to overcome this problem or at least give me some hints of what I should try?
regards
C
Hello,
I have a Honor View 20 on Magic 3.1.0 (10.1.0.241). I remember installing all my Apps from the Google Play Store, then going through Settings and tweaking the phone it to my preference.
Unfortunately the customised notification sounds for two apps I know of aren't working, eBay which is normally a Cha Ching and BBC News. Instead all notifications use the same sound which I have selected (Chess).
This wasn't the case with my Honor 8, not sure what to try, maybe someone can shed some light on this.
Any ideas? Thanks
