Dary is a pill reminder that keeps working on the days you never open the app. Restart your phone, install an update, switch to a new device, or leave Dary alone for a week - the 8:00 reminder still arrives. Setup takes a minute. Add a medication, choose the times, then mark each dose as taken or skipped. If you skip, you can note why: forgot, felt better, ran out, side effects. That reason stays in your history, so you are not left staring at a blank day. • Prescriptions, vitamins and supplements on one schedule • Taken or skipped in a single tap • Reminders that keep working after a restart, update, or new phone • Adherence for the last 7 days, shown as plain numbers • Courses with an end date - a 10-day antibiotic ends on day 10 • Pills, drops, inhalers, injections, patches, and seven other forms • Light and dark themes Care Circle Taking medication alone is hard. So is worrying about someone who takes it. Care Circle lets you invite one person - a daughter, a partner, a caregiver. If a dose goes unmarked, they get a message. When you mark it later, they get the all-clear. No shared dashboard, no location tracking, no daily report. Just a ping when something is off, and another when it is fine again. What's free Three medications and a week of history. No ads anywhere in the app. Dary+ removes both limits and unlocks Care Circle. Dary reminds you. It does not diagnose, and it will not tell you what to take or when to stop. That stays between you and your doctor. Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy: https://dary.care/consumer-health-privacy
