Read full descriptionHide full description
A medication reminder that does one job properly: it tells you when to take something, and it remembers that you did. SET IT UP ONCE Add a medication, choose the times of day and the weekdays it applies to, and you are done. There is no account, no sign-in and no server. Nothing you enter leaves the device. REMINDERS THAT ARRIVE A notification at every time you set, on the days you set. Mark a dose taken and it moves into the record. Miss one and it is still there, not quietly deleted. SEE THE WHOLE WEEK The calendar shows what is due and what has been taken, day by day. The list view shows every medication you track in one place. FREE AND PRO The free app is a complete reminder. Up to three medications, unlimited times a day, any weekday, and every notification delivered. Reminders are never behind a purchase. Dose Alert Pro is one payment, not a subscription. It removes the three medication limit and adds a shareable schedule summary you can hand to a doctor, a pharmacist or a carer. Medications you already track stay yours. NOT MEDICAL ADVICE Dose Alert is a reminder and a record. It holds no drug database, checks no interactions and gives no dosing advice. You enter what you were prescribed, exactly as you were prescribed it.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dose Alert at none against Pill Time!'s 1. Dose Alert also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 months). Pill Time!'s advantage is iOS requirement (10.0 vs 14.0.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
