An absolute lifesaver!

If you have poly pharmacy, i.e. you're taking a lot of pills… But I'm sure you have issues like me where you either forget to take your pills or you don't separate them correctly in your little pill boxes. Or while you're trying to fill your whole boxes, you have a tremor or something like that in your pills flip over and go everywhere. Hero does all of this for you! It comes with 10 cups where you can place each individual pill type you use your phone to program the dose the frequency and how what times do you want to have dispensed. A couple pop out you put your meds in there put it back in close the door, rinse and repeat until all of your measures are done. At that point when it's time for a dose it will ding at you and you press the center button on the front and voilà your own personal hero dispenses the meds that you're due to get. Once it's done, I pull out the pills I give it a glance to make sure everything dispensed and I take them and I'm done. There are times where it will not be able to suck up the pill to drop it into the cup, but it will tell you hey there was an issue. Please get your dose out. And it almost takes every kind of pill. The exception is soft gels, and Gummies. But I have tablets capsules tablets, Summer large Summer are really tiny

But I can say overall this is the absolute best solution I have come up with for medication management. Give it a try. Their customer service is amazing. They are patient and walk you through steps if there's an issue. If the machine gets extra finicky, even for them, they will send you another unit and pay for the shipping back. There are also many insurance insurances that will accept this as a medication management option for its customers. If not, the monthly fee is worth the hassle of dropping pills accidentally all the things that can happen with poly pharmacy

My hats off to you, people of hero you're all my hero!!!

I just went through a trying time. But Hero stuck with me and got everything set back up for me and that’s great. I’m glad to have it.

Would be a 5-Star App with Medication and Symptom Tracking

For the price point, this app has a lot of potential, but it needs a few key features to truly deliver value. Adding a medication refill reminder, along with a comprehensive health profile to track blood pressure, medication symptoms, chronic illness logs, and cancer symptom journals, would make this an indispensable tool for managing care and communicating with doctors.
