Feature request: Trend and add amount button for medicine refills

[fosslover306]

1. The Trend tab is to see how long the medication in question will last based on how much is left in inventory, and how much is being taken daily on average for the last 30 days, allowing for better medication management because you can see at a glance how long your medication supply will last.

2. The add medicine doses button in the treatment tab is for adding medicine dosess to the inventory so when your medicine is refilled you can just add how many pills you received to the total instead of having to add the current inventory to the pills received manually.
   It would work like the "add one time entry" does, select the medicine to add pills to and the amount and press the confirm button to add it to the current inventory.

3. If possible add the ability to collapse previous days history to both save on screen space, and make it much easier to browse, with a down arrow to expand the days history with a single click or tap, and of course a up arrow to collapse it again.

Those are good ideas, just don't know when I'll be able to implement them.

Trend will require a lot more thoughts.

The refill feature can be an item in the 3 dot menu from the treatment. To open a dialog with how much we want to add with some options like 30, 60, 90.

As long as I can chose a cusom amount to add, those numbers as starting points seem to be fine.

That being said most of medications i have seen are supplied in bottles that hold even numbers, starting at 100, 200, or 300 or more.

So it would be best to just have a text box to type in the number you want to add, and have that number be saved as the default next time.

About collapsing the history: I didn't liked the idea of collapsing all previous days (only show 1 day), so instead I choose to show the last 7 days.

Refill dialog:

I'm not sure that's the best way to do this.

There are many meds that come in all sorts of sizes but usually it's a standard sized box or re-filled prescription and changes rarely. I actually think just a custom field of "add this many" that remembers its value would probably work best. The value remembered would be specific to that medication so different ones would remember a different value.

Ideally the workflow I want from this feature would be to just be able to say "I got 3 boxes of this standard amount" or just "Add 30 pills".

Thank you for this app, I like it.

What about that @ada-magicat? Also clicking the inventory badge will open this dialog

I think this is better:

Either of these 2 would do what I want from this feature personally, but I'm not sure how intuitive they feel.

I'm not a designer or anything so I'm just going to yap about my first impressions seeing them.
The second one kind of "hides" where that magic 30 comes from. The first one also does look a bit busy and took me a while to parse. The fact that there are 2 "+" icons to add more pills is maybe not helping?

Certainly functional though!

It's only possible to open the refill dialog if the inventory is enabled. So when setting that up you'll see the refill amount, but yeah, it doesn't make much sense if you already have the inventory enabled before this.

I'll leave like this though, can't think of anything better for now.
