PillPaw is the shared pet medication tracker that ends the "double-dose panic." Whether you are managing a simple monthly preventative, a short-term antibiotic, or daily life-saving pills, PillPaw keeps your whole household synced. When one caregiver logs a dose, the whole household sees it instantly. No more frantic "did you already give it?" texts or missed doses. SEE TODAY'S STATUS AT A GLANCE No more guessing or texting. One shared family schedule shows exactly which medications are pending and which have been completed. The moment a dose is logged, it crosses off for everyone, showing exactly who did it and when so you never double up. ALARMS THAT ACTUALLY KEEP YOU ACCOUNTABLE Say goodbye to silently swiped-away reminders. When a dose is due, our smart alerts will persistently repeat until someone in the household opens the app and actually completes or skips the task. REFILLS THAT ACTUALLY MATCH YOUR BOTTLE COUNT Pets spit out pills, and medications get ruined. If you have to skip a dose and throw the pill away, PillPaw accounts for the waste. Your remaining pill count stays accurate, and the app warns you to call the vet before you run low. A DETAILED MEDICAL HISTORY FOR YOUR VET Ditch the guesswork at the clinic. Easily export a 30-day PDF report of completion timestamps, weight changes, and logged symptoms that your vet can review at your next visit. SYNC YOUR WHOLE HOUSEHOLD Keep your spouse, kids, roommates, or weekend pet sitters perfectly synced. Invite caregivers to your pet's profile so everyone can coordinate care and attribute doses without sharing password logins. PILLPAW PLUS (optional subscription) Unlimited pets, adherence trends, condition charts, and vet-ready summaries. PillPaw Plus is $4.99/month or $29.99/year, with a 7-day free trial. - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation - Auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel anytime in your App Store settings PillPaw is a general tracking tool and is not a substitute for veterinary advice.

Lumeday is a calm home for your whole day. Instead of a workout app, a water app and a habit app that never talk to each other, you compose one timeline — and get one honest number for how body and mind are actually doing. ONE TIMELINE FOR THE WHOLE DAY Add workouts, hydration, mindfulness and your own custom blocks to a single day spine, reorder them, tick them off, and set a reminder before each one. Build tomorrow in seconds from a one-tap routine, or save your own. LUME BALANCE — ONE HONEST NUMBER A 0-100 daily score computed on your device from six things you actually did: activity completion, movement, hydration, mindfulness, sleep and seven-day consistency. Any dimension with no data that day is left out and the rest are reweighted, so the score is never padded and never punishes a gap. Tap it to see exactly what moved it. A STREAK THAT FORGIVES Qualifying days build a streak that survives one miss a week, with milestones grounded in real habit research rather than the 21-day myth. PROGRESS YOU CAN READ Hydration, movement, mindfulness, sleep and mood each get a trend and a plain change against your own last seven days. Set specific goals and watch a ring fill, with a projection of when you will reach the target at your current pace. A CONTENT LIBRARY THAT SCHEDULES ITSELF Guided breathing, mobility flows, focus and wind-down sessions, filterable by length, type and mood — and any of them drops straight onto your timeline. LUMEDAY PRO (optional subscription) - Cross-domain patterns: whether your mindfulness or hydration days really precede better-scoring days, each rated by strength and shown only when there is enough data to mean anything - Bio-Sync: a plain-language plan tweak grounded in your own numbers - Your full history, the weekly review ritual, a shareable summary, premium sessions and unlimited routines - 9.99 US dollars per month or 59.99 US dollars per year, with a 7-day free trial - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation.
