Set an alarm for the next pump

After you save a session, Cami shows Next pump. You can also open it any time with the alarm button at the top of the Pumping form.

  1. Choose how to set the time: After pump (counted from the start of your last session; it reads After feed when you nursed more recently), In (from now) or At (a clock time).
  2. Pick the time.
  3. Tap Set alarm.
The Next pump sheet: After pump, In and At, a time, and the Set alarm button.13

The alarm rings even when your iPhone is on silent. When it rings, you can stop it or tap Start pumping. The countdown on your Lock Screen has a button to snooze it for 15 minutes.

To change the time, open Next pump again and tap Move alarm. To cancel it, tap Turn off alarm.

The alarm is for this iPhone only. Your partner’s phone does not ring.

Alarm options

In Next pump, tap the Alarm options button (•••):

  • Ask after each pump: turn off to stop the sheet from opening after every save.
  • Show on Lock Screen: shows the countdown to the next pump on your Lock Screen.

Pumping belongs to the family

A pumping session is yours, not one child’s. With twins or siblings, your pumping shows on each child’s Timeline, and the export of each child includes it. Only one pumping timer can run at a time in your family.

Troubleshooting

Cami says alarms are blocked

Cami asks to turn off my next pump alarm
