Cami never sends a reminder for either. The pill reads, for example, **Feeding in 32m** or **Sleep in 23m**. It is a window, not an alarm. ![The Up Next pill at the start of the Today row on Home, with a feeding countdown and a ring around the glyph.](https://camibaby.com/help/feeding-intervals-wake-windows/up-next-pill.webp) ## What the pill shows - **Feeding in…** counts down to when the feeding window opens. When it opens, the pill reads **Feeding**. - **Sleep in…** counts down to the late end of the wake window. The ring around the glyph fills as the wait runs. When both windows apply, the pill shows the one that opens first. When a window closes, the pill goes away. Tap the pill to open **Up Next**, which shows each window with its times. ## How Cami works out the feeding window - It starts from the **start** of the last feed (nursing or bottle). A feed that is still running counts too. - It adds your child’s interval: the time from the start of one feed to the start of the next. The window opens at the short end of that range. - It uses the night interval when most of the wait falls in the night, as set in **More** , **Day & Night**. To see or change the interval, open **More** , **Feeding Intervals**. ![The Feeding Intervals screen: the Feeding Intervals switch, Automatic selected, the Milk row, and Daytime feeds and Night feeds.](https://camibaby.com/help/feeding-intervals-wake-windows/feeding-intervals.webp) - **Automatic** uses typical spacing for your child’s age. **Milk** picks the column: Cami reads it **From recent feeds**, or you choose **Breast milk**, **Formula** or **Both**. - **Manual** lets you set **Daytime feeds** and **Night feeds** yourself. - Turn off **Feeding Intervals** to hide the feeding window. ## How Cami works out the wake window A wake window runs from the **end** of one sleep to the start of the next. It applies in the daytime only, and a running sleep ends it. Open **More** , **Wake Windows** to change it. The screen has a **Beta** label. - **Automatic** uses a typical range for your child’s age and widens it as your child grows. - **Manual** lets you set **Wind down from** and **Asleep within** yourself. - Turn off **Wake Windows** to hide the wake window. ## Who sees it Both settings belong to each child and are the same for everyone in your family. Both are on when you add a child. **Note** These windows show the shape of a typical day, from published ranges by age. They are not medical advice. Feed your child on demand, follow their sleepy cues, and follow your pediatrician. ## Troubleshooting ### I don't see the Up Next pill The pill shows only while a window is coming or open. It needs a feed or a sleep logged, and **Feeding Intervals** or **Wake Windows** turned on. Wake windows do not apply at night. ### Can Cami remind me when it is time to feed or nap? No. Cami shows these windows on Home but sends no notifications for them. ## Related articles - [Read Today so far and what "usual" means](https://camibaby.com/help/today-and-usual): The pills under Today on Home count what was logged today.
