## What is PillBell?

Stay on track with every dose. PillBell is a focused pill reminder and medication log that helps you follow your schedule, record each dose, and check your progress.

BUILT FOR EVERYDAY MEDICATION ROUTINES

• Add a medication with its name, dose, unit, and notes
• Choose daily, selected-weekday, or every-few-days schedules
• Add multiple reminder times for medications taken more than once a day
• Mark doses as taken or skipped and review missed doses
• See today's progress and browse your history on a calendar

REMINDERS THAT FIT YOUR PLAN

PillBell sends local notifications at the times you choose. Optional repeat reminders can continue at your selected interval until a dose is confirmed. Delivery depends on your iOS notification, Focus, and sound settings.

ADVANCED SCHEDULES WITH PILLBELL PLUS

Create cycle plans for a set number of dose days followed by pause or placebo days. Use phased dosing plans when the dose changes across predefined stages. PillBell follows the schedule you enter; missed or late doses never cause the app to change your plan automatically.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

PillBell has no ads and requires no separate account. Medication data stays on your device and can sync through your private iCloud database. We do not use advertising trackers or third-party behavior analytics.

The free version covers essential reminders for up to two active medications. PillBell Plus unlocks unlimited medications, cycle and phased schedules, private notification wording, all reminder sounds, CSV export, and Face ID app lock.

PillBell reminds and records only what you enter. It does not verify prescriptions or provide diagnosis, treatment, interaction, or dosing advice. Always follow guidance from your doctor or pharmacist.

*2026-08-18*

很不错的服药提醒软件

**Developer response:** 嘻嘻，感谢认可，药小铃一步步变更好离不开大伙的反馈和支持~

### 2/5 — 图标右上角显示

*2026-08-15*

A P P右上角上显示未读信息会更好，这样拿起手机就能看到今天吃没吃，只要进去点已服，这个右上角就不会再显示。

**Developer response:** 你说的有道理，已mark ，后面我会跟常驻的桌面小组件一起调研一下，看看哪个方案更合适

### 5/5 — 很不错的软件

*2026-08-08*

记录栏，每天完成的小点也太不明显了，能整成色块吗，小小建议

**Developer response:** 感谢建议。小点现在是按需查看：红=当天有漏服，绿=当天全部完成，避免日历铺满色块不好扫异常。完成状态确实可以更醒目，我会在后续版本里看看怎么优化一下。

### 5/5 — 加个小组件

*2026-08-07*

加个小组件吧，点一下就完成

**Developer response:** 很棒的建议，已Mark，后续版本会逐步加上滴 ！

### 5/5 — 能不能增加药的数量

*2026-08-07*

是否可以添加药的数量呀？这样就可以知道药是不是快没了和过期时间

**Developer response:** 棒，特别实用的建议，已加在开发的plan中啦，后续会逐步更新哒

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3.0 — 2026-08-17

Your dose reminders can now break through Silent and Focus — so a muted phone is less likely to mean a missed dose.

NEW
• Important Alerts — an optional setting for medication reminders that need to be heard, even when your iPhone is silent or in Focus
• Keep everyday reminders as they are; turn this on when a missed dose really matters
• Switch it off anytime in PillBell or in iOS Settings

### 1.2.0 — 2026-08-13

Your pillbox now keeps count for you — every dose you confirm updates your stock, with a heads-up before you run out or your meds expire.

NEW
• Stock tracking — set an optional quantity for any med, and it counts down as you confirm each dose (undo adds it right back)
• Refill alerts — see exactly how many doses remain on every reminder card, with a warning below 5 and a refill prompt at zero
• Expiry tracking — add an optional expiration date and get a gentle warning 30 days before your meds go bad
• Biweekly plans — every-few-days schedules now include an every-two-weeks option
• Your medicine list flags anything that needs attention, so an empty pillbox never surprises you

All free, for everyone.

Plus: a smoother add-medicine flow and a Liquid Glass footer that feels right at home on iOS 26.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-08-05

Set when your every-few-days plan begins — and never lose today's dose just because you added it later.

NEW
• Choose a start date for every-few-days schedules
• See your next dose date while setting up reminders

IMPROVED
• Confirm today's doses anytime during the day, even after the scheduled time
• Interval, cycle, and phased plans keep the right first day when created midday

PillBell stays focused on clear dose reminders and a medication log you can trust.

### 1.0 — 2026-08-04

No release notes.
