The Diary is the central tool for day-to-day monitoring of your personal activities such as appointments, medication, doctor's appointments, etc. Each time an event is opened and completed, its icon is marked on the relevant date. You can click on any date on the calendar to view the recorded events and the 'To Do' list (if applicable) for that particular day on the right side of the Diary. *Please refer to How to use the Diary.
Each Diary event has a specific role:

The Repeat Prescription event allows you to log dates and times when you need to refill or renew your reliever, preventor or protector. |
| Doctor's Visit |
Tracks information related to your visits to the Doctor's -- both before and after a visit. |
| To Do |
Acts as a reminder to log diary events or to do personal tasks. Some To Do reminders can be added to the Diary from within other events. |
