ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pill Reminder and Med Tracker holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pill Reminder and Med Tracker has 1.8K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Pillify's written reviews are positive against 79% of Pill Reminder and Med Tracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Pillify ships an update every 9 days, Pill Reminder and Med Tracker every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
