Why I Love Tonic: Ronald Simons, Weehawken, New Jersey

"I use Tonic to help track a variety of supplements and medications. This is especially useful for me as I am an entrepreneur and operate in a climate of constant scheduling changes for meetings, conference calls and production location visits. I look forward to using Tonic to help keep me on schedule for my weight training and cardio workouts." -- Ronald Simons, Weehawken, New Jersey

iOS 5 & Tonic

IMPORTANT: If you are updating to iOS 5, to continue receiving reminder notifications from Tonic you must go the Notifications section of the Settings app, and set Notification Center to ON.

One of the major new features of iOS 5 is the Notification Center. This makes it easier to keep track of notifications from different apps, to respond to notifications, and strikes a better balance between notification and interruption. To enjoy all these benefits, you first need to turn it ON.

Here are detailed instructions:

 1. Tap on the Settings app.

 2. Tap on Notifications.

 3. Scroll down ...

 4. ... until you find Tonic in the "Not in Notification Center" section.  Tap on Tonic.

 5. Set Notification Center to ON for Tonic. And then set the various options — be sure to set Alert Style to either Banners or Alerts.

6. You'll notice that Tonic is now in the "In Notification Center" section.
