Pill Reminder: Dose Timer helps you start a medication or supplement schedule from the moment you take the first dose. Instead of planning around fixed clock times, tap Taken Now and the app calculates what comes next. FAST DOSE TIMERS • Start a timer from the current moment • See the next dose and time remaining at a glance • Mark a dose taken, snooze it, or stop the timer • Later reminders adjust from the time a dose is actually recorded FLEXIBLE PROTOCOLS Create simple or phased schedules, such as every 15 minutes for the first few doses, then every few hours afterward. Save protocols for quick reuse, or enter a one-time schedule when you need it. CLEAR HISTORY Review taken and skipped doses, correct accidental entries, and export your history as a PDF or CSV when you choose. OPTIONAL DOSE WARNINGS Enter your own minimum time between doses or maximum doses within a time period. The app compares new doses with matching medication names in your recorded history and warns before you continue. Warnings depend on the instructions and dose history you enter. Pill Reminder: Dose Timer does not verify medication directions or provide medical advice. Always follow the label and guidance from a qualified healthcare professional. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account required • Medication information stays on your device • No advertising • Nothing is shared unless you choose to export it TRY IT FIRST The first 10 successful dose timer starts are included. A one-time in-app purchase unlocks unlimited starts. Protocols, history, corrections, exports, and stopping an active timer remain available. Simple, focused, and designed for the moment you need to remember what comes next.
