Tookly
Read full descriptionHide full description
Never miss a dose again. Tookly is the medication tracker built for real life — especially for people with ADHD and chronic conditions who need smarter reminders, not just another alarm. ―――――――――――― SMART REMINDERS THAT FIT YOUR BRAIN ―――――――――――― • Gentle Mode — One calm notification per scheduled dose. No noise, no pressure. • Nagging Mode — Repeats until you respond, with a stop limit you set yourself. No endless buzzing. • Strong Alarm (iOS 26+) — A full-screen alarm that rings even on Silent. Enable it in Settings and it takes over when Nagging Mode isn't enough. • As-Needed (PRN) — Log on-demand medications with minimum intervals and weekly caps. • Snooze — Delay any reminder by 15 minutes when the timing isn't quite right. • Focus Filter — Tell Tookly to pause during Focus modes, right from iOS Settings. ―――――――――――― TRACK EVERY DOSE, EFFORTLESSLY ―――――――――――― • Tap once to mark a dose as taken — undo instantly if you made a mistake. • Visual streak tracker so you can see your consistency at a glance. • Full history with a monthly heatmap — spot your patterns without digging through logs. • Missed and skipped doses are recorded automatically, never silently dropped. ―――――――――――― BUILT FOR PRIVACY, FIRST ―――――――――――― • No account. No sign-up. Open the app and it's ready. • Your medication data lives on your device — never sent to our servers. • iCloud sync keeps all your Apple devices in sync, encrypted end-to-end. • Firebase Analytics collects only anonymous app usage (screen views, feature taps). Medication names and health records are never tracked. ―――――――――――― WIDGETS & LIVE ACTIVITIES ―――――――――――― • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show your next dose at a glance. • Multiple widget sizes: small, medium, and Lock Screen complications. • Live Activity on Dynamic Island while a reminder is pending. • Interactive widget — mark a dose as taken without opening the app. ―――――――――――― STOCK TRACKING & REFILL ALERTS ―――――――――――― • Track remaining pill count for each medication. • Tookly calculates your estimated run-out date automatically. • Get notified 7 days and 3 days before you run out. ―――――――――――― FREE FOREVER. PRO IS OPTIONAL. ―――――――――――― Add as many medications as you need — no limit, no subscription required to use the basics. Tookly is a tool, not a subscription trap. Tookly Pro adds power-user extras: multiple schedules per medication, cycle and taper schedules, expanded family sharing, and 35-day adherence reports. Everything else stays free, always. Not a medical device. Tookly is a reminder tool only and does not replace professional medical advice. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist regarding your medications.

DoseKeep is a medication reminder without a subscription: unlimited medications, a reminder that follows up when you forget, a refill countdown for every bottle, and one list for parents, kids and pets. No account, no ads, no cloud. Everything stays on your iPhone. One optional one-time purchase (DoseKeep Plus) unlocks more than two profiles and history beyond 90 days. Never a monthly fee. ONE LIST FOR THE WHOLE HOUSE • Profiles for the people and pets you care for, all on one phone • Each profile has its own medications, reminders, streak, and history • Pets get a paw icon and reminders in their own voice: "Buddy needs Carprofen" • Two profiles are free; a one-time Plus unlock adds more. Never a monthly family plan IF YOU'RE LATE, IT KNOWS THE RULE • Set a rule per medication: more than a few hours late means skip, never double • Past the window, the tap asks instead of guessing: Skip, don't double, or I took it anyway • Logged a dose two hours late? It says the one rule every leaflet agrees on: keep the next dose at its usual time, never double • Confirm the right window with your pharmacist; DoseKeep never gives advice about a specific medication YOUR SKY, ON YOUR HOME SCREEN • The next dose on the night sky in your chosen palette, with a one-tap Taken button when it is due • Today's doses, your streak, and the constellations you have lit, in every widget size and on the Lock Screen • Every dose you log lights a star. A missed dose never dims anything REMINDERS THAT FOLLOW UP, THEN STAY QUIET • Every dose time, even offline, with Taken, Snooze, and Skip right on the notification • Not logged? One follow-up 30 minutes later, and one at two hours if you ask. Then quiet, so the next reminder still means something • Several medications at one time are one notification, with All taken and Snooze • The reminder leads with your routine: "After breakfast: Metformin, 1 tablet" • Time-Sensitive reminders that break through Focus and silent mode • Discreet mode keeps medication names off your Lock Screen SCHEDULES FOR REAL LIFE • Every day, specific weekdays, every few days, or as-needed with a spacing rule • Days-on, days-off cycles, and courses that end on their own • A taper ladder: step a dose down every few days until it reaches zero, reminders following each rung • Multiple reminder times per day, with different amounts per time TRACK EVERY DOSE • Your day at a glance with the next dose up front and one tap to log it • Forgot to log it? A catch-up lets you answer honestly after the fact • A streak that forgives: honest skips keep it, and two shields a month cover chaotic days YOUR RECORD, DOCTOR-READY • A calendar of your adherence and a percentage over 7, 30, or 90 days, per medication • Export your full history as a PDF summary or CSV spreadsheet, free NEVER RUN OUT, NEVER LOST • Optional refill tracking: a note a week before you run out and again two days before, dated from your actual schedule • Land in a new time zone and DoseKeep asks once: keep local times, or shift every reminder • Free backup and restore: your whole history as one file you control TRULY PRIVATE • 100% on-device. No account, no server, no tracking, no ads, no data sharing DOSEKEEP PLUS (optional, one-time) Everything you need to never miss a dose is free, forever. Plus is a small one-time thank-you that unlocks more than two profiles, history beyond 90 days, and three more night skies (Aurora, Dusk, Ember). No subscription, ever. DoseKeep helps you remember. It is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice. Always follow the instructions from your doctor and pharmacist.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: DoseKeep at every 4 days against Tookly's every 9 days. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
