Don't bother filling it. Close it at the end, and pop open the lid for each day. I keep my pills in the bottle.
Yes but how do you remember to do that every day?
How do you not forget that you even have the organiser?
Mate I've forgotten the concept of eating food, I've misplaced my phone that I was holding 30 seconds ago, I've not been able to recall every card in any of my magic the gathering decks from memory ever since I started playing about 10 years ago.
I've forgotten what I was talking about mid sentence because I had to get a sip of water. You can forget about anything with ADHD, just different people remember things differently. I can recall my partner's favorite colors and hobbies, I can barely recall my own favorite media I saw.

I think you missed the "not" in my comment

Having to look in the fridge when searching for my phone is one of the things that is never not funny to my friends
Something that worked for me was to fill it when I think about it rather than at the end of the week when it’s empty, now I never seem to forget it outside of some bad weeks.
I keep a bottle of Irn Bru or something else too revolting to forget washing the pills down with next to the pills.
I don't! I also have a task reminder, and I sometimes still forget. I finally got every day one week in December. Then, 5 weeks later, I missed every day. It sucks!
What about those fidget popping things? Label each with a day press in the day when you take a pill. Then just flip it over when the week starts over.
... But now I have to remember to close them all at the end of the week 😰

Must ... Pop ... All of them
On Sundays, I close them all. I also have a calendar task and still forget, it's just better than without one or the other.
Not really! because even if you're on autopilot the next morning you'll go into the bathroom and you'll see all of the lids open, there's no reason that you would have left those Lids open if you took your medication prior which means you haven't taken your medication yet
So you just close the lids and only open that day then you take your med
