## What is Pillar?

Pillar is a medication reminder built around one idea: the reminder has to actually reach you.

Most pill reminders use ordinary notifications. Those get silenced by Focus, muted by Silent mode, and swiped away without a second thought. Pillar uses a system-level alarm instead — the same category of alert your Clock app uses — so a dose reminder behaves like an alarm, not a notification you can miss by accident.

TODAY, AT A GLANCE
Your day as a simple timeline. The dose that needs attention sits front and centre with two large buttons — Taken and Snooze. One tap and it's logged. Nothing else on the screen competes with it.

REMINDERS THAT HOLD UP
• System-level alarms that break through Silent and Focus
• Snooze, or log the dose straight from the alert
• A streak counting the days you took everything on time

SCHEDULES THAT MATCH REAL PRESCRIPTIONS
• Every day, chosen weekdays, weekly, or every N days
• Every N hours, for antibiotics and short courses
• Cycles — days on, days off
• Tapers and titrations — step a dose up or down over weeks
• As-needed (PRN), with a daily maximum and minimum spacing

EVERYONE YOU LOOK AFTER
Add a profile for a parent, a partner or a child, each with their own medications, schedule and history. Switch between them in a tap.

SUPPLY AND REFILLS
Track how many you have left. Pillar works out how many days that is and reminds you before you run out — plus a heads-up before a medication expires.

INSIGHTS WORTH READING
Adherence and PDC across 7, 30 or 90 days, a per-medication breakdown, and a plain-language summary generated entirely on your device. Export a PDF for your next appointment, or a CSV of every dose.

YOUR CARE TEAM
Keep doctors, pharmacies and upcoming appointments alongside the medications they relate to.

BUILT FOR THE APPLE ECOSYSTEM
• Apple Watch app — log a dose from your wrist
• Home screen widget — your next dose, always visible
• Scan a pharmacy label with the camera to fill in a name
• Syncs across your devices through your own iCloud account — encrypted, and never visible to us

PRIVACY
Your health data stays on your device and in your own iCloud account. The AI summaries run entirely on-device — nothing you type is sent to a server. Pillar does not sell or share your health data and never uses it for advertising.

IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ
Pillar is a reminder and record-keeping tool. It is not a medical device, it has not been evaluated or cleared by any regulator, and it does not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.

Always check with your doctor or pharmacist before making any decision about your medication, and never start, stop or change a dose based on anything in this app.

The interaction warnings in Pillar cover a small, hand-picked list of widely documented, high-severity drug interactions. They are not comprehensive, they are not a substitute for a pharmacist's review, and the absence of a warning does not mean two medications are safe together. Always confirm with a qualified professional.

Note:
Pillar offers an optional auto-renewing subscription, Pillar Pro, that unlocks unlimited medications, multiple profiles, extended insights, and more. Price is shown before you buy and varies by plan and region. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to that date. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID account settings. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when a paid subscription is purchased.
