## What is LocalDose?

LocalDose helps you organize medicine schedules, receive timely reminders and keep a clear record of your doses—without creating an account.

SCAN PRINTED PRESCRIPTIONS

Use the camera, Photos or Files to scan a clear printed prescription. On-device text recognition finds possible medicines and directions, then gives you a fully editable review before anything is saved or scheduled. Handwriting is not supported.

BUILD A SCHEDULE YOU CAN CHECK

Review medicine names, strengths, forms, amounts, meal timing and reminder times against the original prescription. Add medicines manually whenever you prefer, organize them by treatment and update, pause or stop schedules as needed.

STAY ON TOP OF TODAY

See upcoming doses grouped around your day. Mark a dose as taken or skipped, undo accidental entries and review your dose history without changing past records when a medicine is edited later.

REMINDERS AND WIDGETS

Receive optional local notifications at the times you choose. The Home Screen widget shows your next dose and lets you record it quickly.

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT

Medicines, prescription text, treatment details and dose history are stored on your iPhone. No account is required. Prescription images are processed on device. Optional AI assistance is offered only for uncertain recognized text and requires your explicit approval.

IMPORTANT

LocalDose is a reminder and tracking tool. It does not provide medical advice, diagnose conditions, calculate doses, check interactions or provide missed-dose instructions. Always compare scanned information with the original prescription and consult a qualified healthcare professional before making medical decisions.
