Ensuring that loved ones take their medications be a challenge.

With its easy-to-use sensor, escalating reminders (lights, beeps, notifications, and emails), and automatic dose logging, Nudge empowers caregivers to support independence while staying informed about missed doses. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the straightforward steps to set up Nudge as a caregiver, so you can seamlessly integrate this innovative tool into your care routine and provide peace of mind for both you and your loved one.
IMPORTANT NOTE: To share Nudge information with another person, the other person MUST have an activated Nudge account.

Device Owner Instructions

First you have to log into the app as a person that originally configured the Nudge device.  In top right of the configured device click "..." to show the menu.  In the menu select "Share Device"

That will bring you to the input field where you would enter the email of the other Nudge account that you want to share device details with:
Input Caregiver Email
Now, if the entered email does not have an associated account, you will see a "Send Invitation" button that'll compose an invite email for your caregiver to join Nudge.  If the entered email already has an account, you'll be taken back to the homepage.

Assuming you have a Nudge account, log into it and you will see an invite on the homepage:

Click on that text. It is actually a button.  That will bring you to the option to accept seen the shared Nudge device or to decline. If you decline, there's no undoing that. The device owner will have to send another invite.

After you click accept, you will see all the data and information for that device.  You will also by default receive emails and notifications for when that Nudge device tracks a late dose.
