What's New in Max

3.1.7

July 14, 2026

Hi, it's Max! A little update to keep your reminders exactly on time. [Reminders arrive on time] We fixed an issue where a reminder might not ring — even while your screen was locked. Max will be right on time, every time. [Your changes take effect] When you add or change a medication, it now reflects in your reminders correctly. And meds you've removed won't keep ringing. Max is here with you.

Was great but losing the plot

The app is suffering some functional degradation of late. Ticking off all the medications for a day will not close off that day’s ring. Highlighting days across the top highlights the day next to the one you want.

Quirky pill reminder that actually works

My body is a mess and Max helps me keep it in check. I have two to three sets of pills to take every day, it’s really easy to program in when you need to take everything. You don’t have to select branded pill names and you can tailor it to you. I currently have Max as my reminder animal so if I don’t check off that I’ve taken my meds, I get a “phone call” from Max which acts like a real phone call on your phone and plays a dog bark at you for a minute. I think it’s cute and a great way of making my phone reminders pop out at me. Would definitely recommend 😊

Simple & Convenient

I opened the app and simply input all my temporary meds with a schedule

Funny and helpful, but needs

I really like this app—it’s quite funny and I really appreciate that the snooze option actually calls you. It’s really good, though it would be great to have a few more options generally speaking.

Ironically I used this for my dog!

My dog has several medications that had different schedules. This app reminded me when the next med was due with a little bark, which is so cute :) This app is very well designed but simple to use. Hands down the best medication app I have ever used and I’ve tried many. I will continue to use this for myself.
