Never miss a dose again. Doz turns confusing medication routines—different pills, different times, meal instructions, multiple prescriptions—into one clear daily plan you can actually stick to. Whether you're managing a long-term prescription, a daily vitamin and supplement stack, or a birth control routine, Doz keeps everything on schedule and out of your head. BUILT FOR THE ADHD BRAIN With ADHD it's easy to lose track of whether you took your meds, or when. Doz puts the answer where you already look: - Today's doses or your week's pill box as your Lock Screen wallpaper - A Live Activity counting down to each dose - A Last Dose widget on your Home Screen or Lock Screen PRESCRIPTION-FIRST TRACKING Doz organizes medications by prescription, so you see your full treatment plan the way your doctor intended—not just a pile of separate reminders. Each medication stays connected to the prescription it belongs to. REMINDERS THAT FIT REAL LIFE - Set reminders before, during, or after meals - Adjust safely across time zones - Get follow-up nudges when you miss one - Preview reminder sounds - Enable Critical Alerts for the doses that matter most FLEXIBLE ROUTINES, NOT JUST DAILY PILLS Real routines aren't always once-a-day. Doz handles them all: - Medications taken every few days or on specific days - Interval schedules and dayparts - Intake-and-pause cycles used by some birth control regimens - Vitamins and supplements alongside your meds SMART SETUP Add medications fast with intelligent intake parsing that understands common instructions, dosages, meal timing, and frequency. Turn "after breakfast," "before bed," or "twice daily" into a clear schedule in seconds. IMPORT FROM APPLE HEALTH Import your medications, schedules and dose history from Apple Health, and pick up exactly where you are. No retyping, no starting your streak from zero. TODAY'S DOSES, RIGHT WHERE YOU NEED THEM - Check today's doses at a glance - Mark doses complete from interactive widgets - Ask Siri about your next dose or your stock, or log a dose with Siri and the Shortcuts app - Review what's coming up - Keep your routine moving without opening the app STAY STOCKED Never get caught short. Doz tracks your supply as you take doses: - See stock levels at a glance - Get clearer low-stock alerts before you run out - Refill from Today or the medication screen - Set a custom low-stock threshold for each medication - Correct your pill count by hand when you edit a med or log a refill PROGRESS INSIGHTS - Track adherence, on-time rate, and streaks - Review your full medication history - View insights overall, by medication, or by prescription PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your health data stays yours: - No account required - No ads - Offline-first - Secure iCloud sync across your Apple devices Doz is made for anyone who wants a simple, reliable reminder that fits real life—patients, caregivers, people with ADHD, and anyone juggling more than one thing to remember.

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.
