The app is designed to make managing your medications and vitamins easy and to help you confidently follow your doctor’s prescribed regimen. It combines medication reminders, scanning information from medicine packaging, and tracking doctor visits to support the formation of healthy daily habits. You can set up your medication schedule in a way that truly fits your needs: daily, on specific days of the week, in cycles, or as needed. The app sends timely notifications to help you avoid missing doses and stay in control of your medication or vitamin routine. When a reminder goes off, you won’t forget to take your pill. Special attention is given to accurate medication identification. Unlike solutions that attempt to recognize drugs by the appearance of a pill, the app scans the packaging or blister where the medication name is clearly indicated. This approach takes into account real-life situations where medicines are sold individually or without full instructions and helps quickly restore important information. This is especially useful for long-term or regular medication and vitamin use, such as for diabetes, contraceptives, dietary supplements, and other treatments. This method reduces the risk of errors and provides reliable information about a medication. Simply scan the package where the drug name is shown to access detailed data, including the description, dosage form, active ingredient, manufacturer, country of origin, pharmacological group, indications, contraindications, usage recommendations, and possible side effects. You can also keep personal notes related to medication intake and doctor visits, recording important details for yourself. The app helps create a clear and stress-free system for managing medications, reducing the risk of missed doses and confusion. The app is developed with a focus on convenience, accuracy, and practicality, making it a reliable everyday assistant for managing your medication routine and helping you take control of your health. The app is designed to help you conveniently manage medication intake and reminders. It is not a medical device and does not replace consultation with a doctor or pharmacist. Medication information is provided for reference purposes only. Always review the official instructions and consult a healthcare professional before use. The free version includes a limited number of medication scans and drugs available for tracking.

PillTime — приложение для тех, кто хочет вовремя принимать лекарства и не забывать о схеме лечения. Приложение полностью бесплатное, не требует регистрации и работает локально: все данные хранятся только на вашем устройстве. С PillTime можно легко настроить приём: - Добавьте лекарство: название, дозировку в мг, форму выпуска (таблетка, капсула, капли) и количество за приём. - Задайте расписание: одно или несколько времён в день для каждого препарата. - Отмечайте результат: принято, пропущено или перенесено на другое время. - Отслеживайте историю: календарь приёма с наглядной лентой по дням. - Анализируйте курс: отдельная статистика по каждому препарату. - Работайте с данными: экспорт в CSV, md и txt, и отчёт для врача, импорт из CSV. - Импортируйте данные из других приложений: поддерживается импорт из приложения «Напоминания и трекер таблеток». - Архивируйте завершённые курсы, чтобы основной список оставался чистым и понятным. - Полная приватность: всё работает локально, данные никуда не отправляются и не синхронизируются с серверами. Ежедневный экран показывает ваши лекарства по времени: вы сразу видите, что уже принято, что пропущено и что запланировано дальше. Если не удалось принять препарат вовремя, приём можно отметить как пропущенный или перенести на другое время буквально в пару касаний. Гибкий календарь позволяет листать дни свайпами влево и вправо, чтобы посмотреть прошлые или будущие приёмы. Для каждого лекарства доступна отдельная карточка со статистикой и продолжительностью курса — так удобно контролировать, насколько точно вы придерживаетесь назначений. PillTime помогает не забывать о приёме таблеток, капсул и капель, наглядно показывает прогресс и упрощает подготовку к приёму у врача благодаря экспорту данных. PillTime не является медицинским изделием и не заменяет консультацию врача. По вопросам лечения всегда обращайтесь к специалисту.
