StarDose answers one question: "Did I take it today?" If you take one to three medications daily — birth control, ADHD meds, antidepressants, thyroid medication, vitamins — you know the feeling. You get a reminder, tap it away, and twenty minutes later have no idea whether you actually took the pill or just dismissed the notification. StarDose ends that. A tap logs your dose. Your Lock Screen widget and Apple Watch show your status at a glance, all day. No second-guessing. WHAT'S FREE — FOREVER • Add unlimited medications • Tap to log doses from the Today view • Daily reminders with snooze • 30-day history • Undo any log PRIVACY FIRST No accounts. No analytics.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: StarDose at 5.0 against That Pole App's 3.3. That Pole App's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (6 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. That Pole App sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and StarDose sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
StarDose holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: That Pole App has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
That Pole App ships an update every 8 days, StarDose every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
