Your child's next vaccine is coming up. TinyDose makes sure you don't miss it. TinyDose is a baby vaccine tracker and child immunization schedule app built for parents. Get a reminder before every dose, follow your own country's immunization schedule, and keep a complete vaccination record for your child, all in one place. SMART VACCINE REMINDERS Push reminders two days before and on the day each vaccine is due, plus email reminders so it still reaches you when your phone is on silent. Premium adds custom reminder times that fit your routine. SEE WHAT'S DUE NEXT Upcoming, completed, skipped and overdue vaccines at a glance. TinyDose answers the question every parent asks: what's due next, and when? YOUR OWN COUNTRY'S SCHEDULE, 25 COUNTRIES Choose your country and TinyDose builds the right immunization schedule: United States (CDC and AAP), India (UIP and IAP), United Kingdom (NHS), Australia (NIP), Canada (NACI), Germany (STIKO), France, Brazil (PNI), Argentina, Indonesia (Kemenkes and IDAI), Vietnam (TCMR and private), Philippines (DOH and PIDSP), Malaysia, Singapore, UAE, Saudi Arabia (MOH), South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Egypt, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Ukraine and Georgia. In eight countries you can choose between the national government programme and the private pediatric schedule, so the schedule matches what your pediatrician follows. A COMPLETE IMMUNIZATION RECORD Log every baby vaccine, newborn vaccine and toddler vaccination. Mark doses done, skipped or rescheduled, and TinyDose recalculates what comes next, including catch-up timing when a dose runs late. EVERY SHOT, EXPLAINED IN PLAIN LANGUAGE TinyDose talks about diseases, not just vaccine codes. See what each dose protects against, what your doctor may write on the card, and the after-effects to expect. SEE WHERE EVERY SCHEDULE COMES FROM Open Medical Sources to see the health authority behind each schedule, its version, when it was last reviewed, and a link to the published source. HOME SCREEN WIDGET Check your child's next vaccine without opening the app. SCAN YOUR CHILD'S VACCINATION CARD (Premium, Beta) Photograph the paper vaccination card from your clinic, or upload a PDF, and TinyDose reads the vaccines and dates, then matches them to your child's schedule. It handles handwritten cards and groups doses by visit date. Nothing is added on its own. You review and confirm every entry before it is saved. Includes 20 scans a month. PRIVATE AND SECURE No ads. No data selling. TinyDose does not use your location. Your family's health data stays yours. TINYDOSE PREMIUM A free TinyDose account tracks one child, with the full schedule, reminders, email reminders, the widget and all vaccine information included. Premium adds: โ€ข Every child in one app, with a family view of what's due โ€ข Custom reminder times โ€ข Doctor-ready PDF vaccination records for clinics, school or visa applications โ€ข Vaccination card scanning (Beta), 20 scans a month โ€ข Document storage for cards and proofs โ€ข Custom vaccines outside the standard schedule TRY PREMIUM FREE FOR 14 DAYS Every Premium feature unlocks right away. No payment details required, and nothing renews on its own. WHY PARENTS USE TINYDOSE Vaccination schedules are confusing. Catch-up doses after a missed vaccine, optional vaccines your doctor recommends but the government schedule doesn't, moving between countries, or not knowing whether the paper card in the drawer is still up to date. TinyDose is the baby immunization reminder and vaccine log that keeps it straight.
