8/26 - Subscription error?
8/26 - I can’t renew my subscription, either via the app itself or here at the App Store…
Truth be told I don’t see anything missing from the app (I only expired a week ago), but it makes me wonder whether the app has been abandoned…
Still my favorite meds app (as below) as long as it keeps working right…
Will update (or delete this part) if/when fixed, but can’t recommend for now…

2017(?) review:
Does everything I need it to do
I was looking for a drug reminder app that allowed me to set an interval between doses (8 hours from last dose, or every 3 days), as well as time-based doses (everyday at 8am), and as-needed doses (Advil, Pepto, etc). I don’t know if there are any other apps that let you do this now—since I found Dosecast, I’ve never looked for another—but at the time, it was the only app that did, and through several devices, it’s never let me down... I do wish the subscription price was a little lower, but it definitely is worth the cost...

Great for pill reminders
I love that you can set intervals like reminding you to take every 6 hours or so and it will update you on when you can take based on when you last took the pill so you don’t need to be perfect at remembering the exact time or do any math.
Super helpful med management!
This app was invaluable every time I’ve needed to manage multiple meds with different times and conditions. Highly recommend!
Really helpful so far
Needed something better than a bunch of alarms and various reminders - best feature is being able to postpone a dose and schedule things at set times OR at intervals (like 4 hrs between doses), hard to keep up with so many meds so I’ll take any tools I can get
Great
Help me a kit.
Good
For reminding myself if I have already taken my medication or not.
Helpful App
Decent way to keep track of multiple medications. We use it primarily with canines.
Best medicine reminder
This is what I was looking for. I’m getting up in years and this really helps me keep track with my medicine routine. Thanks Dosecast!
Just one fix needed
UPDATE 03/24/2026:
My review below remains the same, but I wanted to add something.
Customer service overall for the app is basically non-existent.
I’ve contacted customer service three times about the same (critical) issue with no response. And this isn’t the first time. So—use the app! It’ll probably do what you need. But don’t expect any support if it doesn’t.
******
I use this app to track a medication I take every 4 hours. However, it’s every 4 hours from when I wake up, which is different every day. So it’s excellent at reminding me about my next dose, 4 hours after each one taken. Even if I’m late on a dose, it’ll still remind me at the correct interval.
But the key to ALL of this is remembering to log that first dose…which, let’s face it, is a little hard to remember when you first wake up. 🥱
I would love to see a “don’t forget to log your first dose” push notification, or the ability to set a timed one (like when you “normally” get up). I can’t tell you how many times I’ve forgotten to log the first dose.
Other than that, I love it. But developers, please PLEASE consider this for the next update.

Data Collection
The App Store transparency report says that this app does not collect any information, yet on first launch it immediately asks to access my contacts (which admittedly you can deny) but their privacy policy mentions collecting pretty much everything. Deleted immediately.
Great App
Assume for keeping track of different meds at different doses and times after surgery.
Very Good but Could Use a Tweak
This is a very good App. It's easy to use and simple to sync between iPhone and iPad so there's little excuse for me to miss a dose.
The additional reminders when a prescription is getting low is also very helpful.
The one addition that would really help their diabetic customers is the ability to record variable sized doses. The amount of insulin needed is in direct proportion to your blood sugar level so the single dose size available in this App doesn't help you keep track of you actual usage.

Not bad, but let the Buyer beware.
I have been using a couple of other pill reminder apps for me and a neighbor that I keep up with her medicines. Both of the other apps have been frustrating and this one appeared to be a saving grace. I did the seven day free trial on the premium version and loved it until it hit daylight saving time and everything went a skew. Multiple request to support and help team yielded no response. Then when I looked and saw that their last update was two years ago and that other than a three-year review, most of the reviews are seven years or older. That’s when it hit me that they probably are no longer supporting this, but they aren’t receiving the money for it. It’s really not that bad. It’s just a bit clumsy. I am going to use it until I can find another one better that has a more current support group.. But I am only buying the premium version one month at a time. Hopefully I’ll find another version in the next two or three months.

Managing the meds.
Overnight after an annual health check, couple of pills got added. Rather than daily, it became - daily pills but after BLD.
This app has been a savior.

Easy to use
Easy to set up and add new medications, much better than other apps I have used.
Freezes.
I've used this app for years and it’s the best around. The only snag I have is that I wish I could select multiple drugs at a time to take at a certain time. I sometimes take my morning pills early and it’s a bit tedious having to do it one at a time.
Better than setting an alarm
The thing that’s better about this app than an alarm is, if you set an alarm and forget it then you’ve forgotten your pills. But this app has a little red dot on your home screen that nobody can ignore!
