My code is really long with multiple programs running at the same time. Is it really a must to use GPIO.cleanup()? And if it is, where should I use it in my code?

from tkinter import *
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
from tkinter import ttk
from tkinter import font as tkfont
import time


GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
GPIO.setwarnings(False)

GPIO.setup(17,GPIO.OUT)#motor
GPIO.setup(27,GPIO.OUT)#LED
GPIO.setup(26,GPIO.OUT)#buzzer
GPIO.output (17, False)
GPIO.output (27, False)
GPIO.output (26, False)


root = Tk()
root.geometry("2000x1900")

title_label=Label(root, text="MEDICATION SCHEDULE", font = "Arial 80 ",bg="light grey",fg='black',relief='solid',bd=8)
title_label.place(relx=0.47, rely = 0.16,anchor = CENTER)

You don't have to use it.

If you set a pin as output and then connect it incorrectly (say set the pin to HIGH and then connect to ground), you can damage the device. GPIO.cleanup() just notices any pins you've set to output and returns them to input when called.

If your program runs forever, you may not have any clean exit points. If you were really worried about this, you should probably set the pins to output only when actually controlling something, and then set them back to input when complete and waiting in between.

But if it's in a case and you're not moving wires around, I wouldn't bother.
