Talking Alarm Clock, Medication Pill Reminder Clock, Talking Alarm Clock for Dementia, Hearing, Visually impaired Seniors-Digital Clock with Multiple Easy Set Alarms Ex Large White

It was easy to set up, and the manual was helpful, but everything resets back to default settings if I try replacing the batteries.

I have one medicine that I have to take four times a day and was having a real problem remembering to take it. This reminder clock is perfect. It can be set to beep or to a voice that tells me when it is time to take the pills. If I remember on my own and take the pills I can touch the "alarm acknowledged" button twice to clear it from going off and to make sure what time it plans to go off next; it tells you "alarm acknowledged" and "the next reminder will be the _____ alarm at (time)" so you know exactly when the next alarm will go off. I was not going to be home one day at pill time and found I can turn a single alarm off, then turn it back on when I get back--that way it doesn't beep too long with no one at home. It has a port for inserting an external power cord to plug into the wall but I have been using batteries and they haven't run down after several months of use. There is a light with a button to push to turn it on, but it doesn't light the dial very well but I don't need it to. The face of the clock shows the day, number of the day of the month, and the current time but it is rather dark, but all I need is the reminder alarms. Update: I have had this med reminder for almost a year now, I think--long time anyway. It still functions well but I have found a few flaws. My timer did not come with paper instructions, just a diagram on the box. The website says it should come with a paper copy of instructions so if yours does, be sure and save them in a safe place for future use. My four times a day medicine was changed to one I took three times a day and I could not figure out how to turn off the 12 pm alarm. After giving up I asked my husband to see if he could do it and somehow he did; but he can't remember how. Now I'm supposed to use a med four times a day and I couldn't figure out how to turn the noon alarm back on. My husband tried and he couldn't either. I went to the company's website and downloaded instructions for my model of alarm. The problem is, they must have changed the set up of the buttons but kept the model number. On the instructions one of the buttons on my alarm is not there anymore but I hoped the instructions would work anyway. They did not; but I found where they said the alarm was automatically set to four times a day when the batteries are inserted. Instead of noon the set times included 1 pm so that was close enough for me. I took out the batteries and waited a second and put them back in. Sure enough, the four times a day automatic settings worked. Of course I had to reset the hour, minutes, date, and year. I just hope I don't have to change the frequency or times of alarms in the future. The second annoying thing about the alarm is the volume. There are only two settings, "loud" and "extra loud". The loud setting is really loud and I have never tried the extra loud setting. The alarm is placed on my computer desk since that is near where I keep my meds. There is a phone near there too and if the alarm comes on while I'm on the phone I can't hear the caller and they can't hear me. Usually they gasp, "What is that?!!!!" and I explain it is my pill reminder. Pushing the button to shut off the alarm doesn't help because it goes on to tell you the time and when your next alarm is due. Most of the time that is fine and I don't want to shut off the voice feature but it can be annoying.

I bought this for my dad because he use to forget to take his pills all the time so I found this product and he and I love it, he's been taking his pills on time and the alarm is nice and loud and it easy too set up and you can set it up for four times a day and you never have to set them again great idea and it tells you the current time and date

Bought this for my mother who lives alone and forgets to take her meds. It reminds her twice a day (can be set for additional prompts) to take her meds by telling her in words it's time to take them.

First up no cable in the package. Easy to use, battery operation so be expensive over time. Excellent speaker quality. Arrived 2 days early

bought this for my mother in law who is very independent but is suffering from memory loss god bless her this alarm has made my wifes life simpler as her mum is now much better at taking her medication thanks for a great product
