OnDose
Read full descriptionHide full description
Know what you're taking. OnDose organises your supplements by timing and absorption, flags interactions from published research, and tracks what you take each day. Not medical advice. Just clarity. — SEE HOW THEY INTERACT Add a supplement and instantly see what competes, what combines well, and what to separate. Every interaction in your stack is checked against published research. Severity levels from Info to Avoid, each with a cited source. Zinc blocks iron. Calcium competes with magnesium. Your morning stack might be cancelling itself out. OnDose catches it. — GET YOUR TIMING RIGHT Supplements are grouped into timing windows based on absorption science. Iron on an empty stomach, magnesium in the evening, competing minerals separated by two hours. OnDose builds your daily schedule so you don't have to think about it. — DAILY CHECK-IN Your daily schedule shows what to take and when. Check off each supplement as you go, build a streak, and look back at any day to see exactly what you took. Push notifications at each timing window keep you on track. — SCAN. DON'T TYPE. Point your camera at a product's UPC barcode. OnDose checks against 37,000+ supplements from DSLD, Open Food Facts, and major brands. Name, dose, and ingredients fill in automatically. Not in the database? Photograph the Supplement Facts label. Ingredients, doses, and serving size are extracted automatically. — ORGANISE YOUR STACK Add supplements, set doses and timing, and keep your full routine in one place. — YOUR DATA, ALWAYS Export your full supplement history, check-ins, and stack configuration as JSON or CSV. No lock-in. If you leave, your data leaves with you. — WHAT'S INSIDE • 350+ supplement compounds covered • 100+ interactions checked with cited sources • 37,000+ barcodes indexed • Timing recommendations based on absorption science • Daily check-ins with streak tracking • Push notifications for each timing window • Barcode scanning and label photo OCR • Full data export (JSON/CSV) — ABOUT THE DATA Interaction data is sourced from NIH Office of Dietary Supplements, EFSA, and peer-reviewed journals.

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
