Never miss a dose again. CapsPlan is your medication planner with reliable reminders, supply tracking and a complete history – fully offline, no account needed. TODAY'S VIEW β€œToday” is grouped by time of day: morning, midday, evening. The next dose sits at the top, one big β€œTaken” button confirms it, and finished parts fold away. Skipping or a reminder again in 15 minutes is one tap. Notices such as low supply or a new dose step appear right on β€œToday”, and the weekly preview shows the days ahead. On iPad and the unfolded iPhone Duo, the weekly preview and supply sit in a second column alongside. ONLY WHAT YOU NEED In Settings β†’ Features & view you hide what you don't use, such as supply, tapering or the weekly preview. CapsPlan stays as simple as you want it. Saved details and reminders are kept. APPLE WATCH Confirm or skip doses right on your wrist with a swipe. Install the watch app once via the Watch app on your iPhone under "My Watch" β†’ "Available Apps". SIRI Say "Hey Siri, next dose in CapsPlan" and Siri tells you your next intake or confirms it by voice. WIDGETS & LIVE ACTIVITIES Your daily progress as a ring on the home screen, optionally without medication names.

With quick actions, follow-up reminders and quiet hours. Travel and time zone mode included.

Add a new pack in seconds with β€œRefill”. SPLITTING TABLETS & SEVERAL STRENGTHS Manage several strengths of a medication, e.g. 10 mg and 5 mg, each splittable into halves or quarters. CapsPlan suggests the right pieces for every dose, uses broken pieces first and works out how long each strength lasts. The evening before, it lets you know if the split changes. HISTORY & STATISTICS Every intake is logged – confirmed, skipped or snoozed – and can be edited afterwards. Statistics show your adherence. Export as CSV or PDF for your doctor visit (Premium). TAPERING UP AND DOWN Reduce or increase a dose automatically in fixed steps β€” every few days, weeks or months β€” to 0 or to a target dose.
