Sorry I took this long to answear, what I wanted is after that has been selected, it would affect how many times the notification will be sent to the user when he submits the medication.
How can I make a drop-down menu to select dosing frequency (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.) and depending on the selection, you can show additional fields to set dosing times and also make the notification time respect what the user selected?
I need help with something else now, and I'm not sure how to describe it well because English is not my first language.
I need to set up a way to enter the hours and make them repeat according to what is selected in the Spinner (If it is daily, weekly, montly, etc...). Additionally, I want the option to select weekdays to only appear if the "Weekly" option is chosen in the Spinner.
Also, could you guide me on how to store this data in TinyDB?
Here is the blocks that I have currently and the .aia if its necessary HealthMate_versao4.aia (86.4 KB)
I still haven't figure out how to turn this into a medication reminder, i don't know how to store the values in the DB or how to use Itoo to make this application run in the background.
I have this fiels and I want to know how do I store them in TinyDB and how to set a notification system with them while using Itoo to make the app run in the background, can someone help me? Here are the screen that I want to save and the blocks I have currently.
So let me suggest you to reduce the requirements and simplify your project.. just use the free alarm extension App Inventor Extensions: Alarm | Pura Vida Apps and set an alarm to take the next medicament... and after getting the alarm, opem the app and set the alarm to take the next medicament, etc
A very good way to learn App Inventor is to read the free Inventor's Manual here in the AI2 free online eBook App Inventor 2 Book: Create Your Own Android Apps ... the links are at the bottom of the Web page. The book 'teaches' users how to program with AI2 blocks.
There is a free programming course here Course In A Box and the aia files for the projects in the book are here: App Inventor 2 Book: Create Your Own Android Apps
How to do a lot of basic things with App Inventor are described here: How do you...? .
But doesn´t the extension create an alarm in your cellphone clock application? My teacher said I couldn't do that and that the app would have to handle the notifications itself because that would end up filling the clock app and that is not good.
It would help but there is some cases that I want the alarm to repeat either everyday, weekly (at a certain day of the week), monthly, etc...
And to answear to the second question, It was my choice to work on the medication reminder, they are working on completely different things on different apps.
Also I'm still confused with something, how will I make the app repeat the notification/alarm based on the hours that the user has inputed and also on the information of the droplist.
Just always only set the next alarm
If an alarm occurs, the user must open the app and for example confirm, that the medicament has been taken
Then cancel the alarm, check TinyDB for the next alarm and set the new alarm
Keep it simple
Now I wanted to make a list of multiple options for the days of the week, I don't know if it's to be done with checkboxes or what... what do you suggest?
Other thing... How can I make an border appear around the textbox? I don't like the fact that it's just a line under it.
