Stack

Stack keeps the supplements you already take organized โ build your stack, get one calm reminder per moment, and log everything in a single tap. BUILD YOUR STACK Add the supplements you take, with your own doses and your own times. Pick from a small library of common gym supplements or add anything custom. Every library entry is general information with a cited public source. ONE REMINDER PER MOMENT Items due at the same time arrive as one notification, not five. Quiet hours are respected, and one gentle re-prompt is the maximum โ no nagging. LOG IN ONE TAP Mark a whole time slot taken with a single tap. Skipping is fine too โ history stays neutral, with no streaks and no guilt. TIMING NOTES, NOT ALARMS When your own schedule puts two items together that are commonly taken apart, Stack shows a quiet, dismissible note. Information, never alerts. STACK PRO Free keeps full tracking for up to 5 items, with reminders. Pro unlocks unlimited items, multiple stacks (cut / bulk), training-day schedules, and history export. Stack is an organizer. It shows general information from cited public sources โ it does not give medical advice, recommend supplements, or suggest doses. Talk to a healthcare professional about what's right for you.

Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Stack at 17.0 against PillRem's 26.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
