Add reminder to check your prescription when you have X doses left

[jon-mqn]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I have a daily medication that I can only get a month supply of and it usually takes a week between me requesting more and being able to get it. It's nice being able to know how many doses left, but I still have to remember to check that and remember to order when I have 7 or so left.

Describe the solution you'd like
For a given medication, you can set a reminder that is triggered as a notification when you have a certain number of doses left.

Example, for Medication Z I can have set it to notify me when I have 7 doses remaining. Then I can mark the notification as "refill confirmed" or "refill not needed" or something.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Well just memory or an external calendar, but it does feel like something in DITMM's wheelshouse since you can list the Pharmacy, prescription number, etc.

This would be a good feature. You already mention it, but I want to reiterate that the reminder settings need to be PER MEDICATION.

It would also be nice if the reminder could account for pharmacies that are closed on certain days. My current pharmacy is open seven days per week, but my previous one was closed on Sundays. So if the day the user needed to refill was on the same day their pharmacy is closed they would need to be reminded the day before that.

Thanks to the devs for making this app.

If you ever need any info about how filling prescriptions works in the USA (it is my understanding that the devs live elsewhere), just tag me and I can answer any questions as best I can.

more realistic (simpler is more likely to get implemented) request might be to have a "highlight remaining doses at x" per medication.

then in the notification, change to bold and show doses remaining while at x.

if using app vs notification to mark taken, maybe popup to highlight "remaining dose x taken" to be sure it is seen.

leave it to user responsibility to figure out what number they need to set to allow for their own special situations, and keeping track if they actually requested refill or not.
