Dose Dot Support

Four things. It keeps the exact spots of your last four shots on a body map, so you can see your own rotation at a glance. It reminds you when your next shot is due, on an interval and a time you choose. It shows your supply as vials and your refills as boxes, and reminds you when it’s time to call for a refill. And it charts your weight, colored by the medicine and dose you were on.

It never suggests where to inject next, what dose to take, or when. What you log is a label on your own history, not a plan.

An iPhone running iOS 17 or later. Nothing else — no Apple Watch, no Apple Health access, no account. Notification permission is only asked for if you turn on a reminder, and the app works without it.

No. There is no sign-up, no login, and no email address. Dose Dot has no network connection of its own, so there is nothing to sign in to and nothing we could see. Everything lives in the app’s container on your iPhone.

Yes, all of it. There is no subscription, no unlock, and no paid tier.

On the Shots tab, tap the body where the shot went — the log opens with that spot already chosen. Or tap Log shot and pick the spot on the map in the sheet. Flip between Front and Back with the switch above the body. Add the medicine and dose if you like, adjust the date and time, add a note, and save.

If you’d rather not aim, open Choose by name in the log sheet and pick a region — left arm, right thigh, and so on. That list also works well with VoiceOver.

Dose Dot names the region under the exact spot you tapped — head, neck, shoulders, arms, chest, abdomen, back, hips, thighs, and so on — so that every tap gets a sensible name, even one nobody would inject. The name is a label for your history. The dot is placed exactly where you tapped, so if the name isn’t what you meant, the spot still is.

The four most recent shots are shown, newest largest and brightest, oldest smallest. When some of those four sit on the side you aren’t looking at, a badge in the corner says how many and tapping it flips the body. The caption under the map names your latest shot and its date.

Tap the history button next to Log shot. Every shot is listed newest first; tap one to change its spot, medicine, dose, date, or note, or swipe to delete it. Deleting or editing your latest shot also moves your next reminder.

On the Reminders tab, choose how many days between shots (1 to 14) with the slider, and set a preferred time by tapping the time. Dose Dot counts from your latest logged shot and shows the next reminder’s day and time plainly. Turn it on with the button at the bottom; iOS will ask for notification permission the first time.

Dose Dot never labels a shot late, missed, or overdue. If you log later than planned, the next reminder simply counts from when you actually logged.

Yes. Tap the Next reminder row and pick a day on the calendar. The time stays your preferred time. That change applies to the next reminder only; once you log your next shot, the cadence takes over again. Moving the slider also clears a hand-picked day.

A daily nudge that starts when your supply is down to one dose, so you can call for a refill in time. Turn it on with the switch on the Reminders tab. When it fires, you can mark the refill Ordered, which quiets it until a new box is recorded, or choose Remind me tomorrow.

No. A shot reminder says only that you asked to be reminded on your chosen cadence; a refill reminder says only that your supply is running low. Neither names your medicine, your dose, or your weight, so nothing sensitive shows on your Lock Screen.

On the Refills tab, tap Add refill the first time and enter how many doses are in a box and how many refills you have left. From then on, your supply shows as vials that empty as you log shots, and your refills as boxes.

Tap New box arrived at the bottom of the Refills tab. Dose Dot adds a box the same size as your last one and takes one off your refills left. If a box is a different size, use the plus button in the corner instead and set the numbers yourself.

If you log a shot while your shelf shows zero doses, Dose Dot assumes you opened a new box and records it for you.

When you are down to your last authorized refill, Dose Dot shows an early note so you have time to get in touch with your prescriber before the final box. It’s a nudge about paperwork, not advice about your treatment.

Log weigh-ins with the Log button on the Weight tab, in pounds or kilograms (change the unit in Settings). The chart colors each stretch of the line by the medicine and dose you were on at the time, with a ribbon along the floor showing when each began. Drag a finger across the chart to read any day. Choose 30 days, 90 days, all time, or a custom range.

Tap Share chart to open a preview. Pick feed or story size and light or dark, then tap Share to send it anywhere through the iOS share sheet, or the copy button to put the image on your clipboard. The copy button next to Share chart on the Weight tab copies the feed-size image in one tap.

The image shows your current weight, the change over the range, the line, and a summary of the medicines and doses in it — so think about where you send it.

Long-press the copy button on the Weight tab for a one-page PDF of the graph or a CSV of the weigh-ins in the selected range. Settings → Export as CSV writes all of your shots, weigh-ins, and refills as three spreadsheets.

In Dose Dot’s private container on your iPhone, and nowhere else. The app has no network connection, no account, no analytics, and no cloud sync. Your device’s own encrypted backups (iCloud Backup, or a backup to your computer) include app data according to your iOS settings; that is Apple’s backup of your phone, not a copy to us. The Privacy Policy has the full detail.

Settings → Back up to a file writes one Dose Dot backup file with your shots, weigh-ins, refills, and settings; save it wherever you like from the share sheet. On the new phone, Settings → Import from a file, pick that file, and choose Replace everything. Restoring your iPhone from its own backup also brings Dose Dot along.

Yes. In Shotsy, export your data as JSON or CSV. Then in Dose Dot, Settings → Import from a file and pick that export. Dose Dot recognizes the format, shows you how many shots and weigh-ins it found, and imports after you confirm. Choose Add to my records to keep what you already have, or Replace everything to start from the import.

Shots come across with their date, site, medicine, dose, and notes; Shotsy’s named sites are placed at the matching spot on Dose Dot’s body map. Weigh-ins come across in their original unit. Side effects, symptom scores, and daily notes are not imported, because Dose Dot has no place to keep them.

Settings → Delete all data. It removes every shot, weigh-in, refill, note, reminder setting, and preference, and cancels your scheduled reminders. It is immediate and permanent, and we have no copy to restore — export first if you want one. Deleting the app does the same.
