OnTopic Memory + Hearing

Read full description

ONTopic Memory & Hearing is an app designed to assist people with short-term memory issues or those experiencing hearing difficulties. While having a conversation with someone, it can be frustrating when hearing loss occasionally causes you to miss certain words or phrases. Short-term memory issues can also affect conversations to the point where the entire subject could disappear from the mind at any time leaving people in an awkward, uncomfortable position. This app uses your device’s microphone to analyze your conversation and displays a LIVE TRANSCRIPT to assist with recalling parts of your conversation when necessary. We have integrated an INSTANT PLAYBACK function which allows you to instantly hear the last ten, twenty, thirty or sixty seconds of your conversation. This is beneficial to those who prefer to wear an earbud as it enables discreet instant playbacks at the tap of a button.

Dose reminders arrive as time-sensitive alerts that can break through Focus. Snap the prescription label and every dose is set up in seconds — for you, and with Pro, for Mom and Dad on the same phone. Unlimited medications stay free, forever. No 2-medication cap, no account to create. ▸ Snap a photo, skip the typing Photograph the prescription label and GoodPill reads it for you — name, dosage, frequency auto-filled. Multiple prescriptions? Scan them all in one batch. ▸ Reminders built not to quietly stop Doses go out as time-sensitive alerts, which can break through Focus and Do Not Disturb. Reminders are queued well ahead — days to weeks, depending on how many doses you track — instead of falling silent after a couple of days. A chip on Today shows how far ahead they're queued, and Reminder check rebuilds the schedule or sends a test notification. A notification only says it's time — never which medication. Delivery still depends on your iOS settings, so open GoodPill now and then to keep reminders topped up. ▸ One tap to log your dose Tap "Taken" — done. Need to skip one? That's fine too. Every action gets logged so you always have a clear history. ▸ One phone for the whole family (Pro) Add Mom, Dad or your kids as their own profiles and switch with one tap. Each person keeps separate medications, reminders, history and stats. Notifications show whose dose it is, never the medication name. Family profiles are part of GoodPill Pro. ▸ Forgiving when life gets in the way Late by a few minutes? The Taken button still works for the first 10 minutes. Past that, a "Log Now" button lets you back-fill the dose without losing your streak. Forgot from yesterday? Open the calendar and fix it. ▸ Prepare for your next visit Collect questions, medication changes and daily notes before your appointment. Save a summary and next steps afterwards, then prepare your follow-up. Set the visit date and GoodPill reminds you the evening before. Drafts, previews and saved summaries are free. ▸ Grow your own garden Every dose you take blooms a flower. Keep your streak and watch your garden grow from a tiny seed into a lush forest. It even changes with the seasons. ▸ See your progress at a glance A color-coded calendar shows your daily adherence — green for perfect days, orange for partial, red for missed. Check 7-day and 30-day rates, your current streak, and your best run. ▸ Search your dose history Search the last 90 days by medication name and see scheduled and actual dose times. Enter a record for an earlier date when needed. Past records remain after you delete a medication. ▸ Widgets and Dynamic Island Glance at today's progress straight from your home screen. Dynamic Island lights up when your next dose is due — without opening the app. ▸ Refill alerts Tell us how many pills you have left and we'll let you know when it's time to refill. No more surprise empty bottles. ▸ Free for what matters Reminders, history, widgets, and unlimited medications are free, forever. ▸ GoodPill Pro — made for families Pro starts with family profiles: one phone for everyone you look after. It also adds PDF sharing and printing for visit summaries, CSV and FHIR export, 90-day stats, 5 app icons, and custom theme colors. Choose a yearly auto-renewing subscription, with a free trial for eligible new subscribers, or a one-time lifetime purchase; prices are shown in the App Store. Share Pro with up to five family members through Apple Family Sharing, each on their own iPhone; records aren't synced between phones. Anything you already use stays free — Pro only unlocks new features, never paywalls existing ones. Subscriptions auto-renew at the same price until cancelled at least 24 hours before the renewal date. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings. GoodPill — because remembering your medication should be the easy part. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
