Med Tracker is a calm, private home for every medication you take. Set up each med with its schedule and get a glowing adherence ring over today's grouped doses — just tap to log each one as taken. See exactly how you're doing over time with a 30-day adherence heat-strip, per-medication bars and a when-you-take-them chart. The standout feature is optional supply tracking: tell it how many pills you have and it counts down automatically as you log doses, flagging a medication as Low and warning you days before you run out so you can refill in time. Gentle notifications remind you when a dose is due and when supplies run low. When you visit the doctor, export a clean, doctor-ready PDF or CSV of your adherence and medication list in a tap. It's private by design: your medication data lives on your device with optional private iCloud sync that keeps it in step across iPhone and iPad — no account, no tracking, no analytics. Native and universal, with a full-width iPad master-detail layout. Track 1 medication free, then a single $6.99 purchase unlocks unlimited medications forever — no subscription.

About

Pip

Read full description

Most people don't take their medications wrong because they don't care. They do it because nobody ever showed them. Pip fixes that. Add what you take, by typing or by just saying it out loud, and Pip builds your day: every dose, at the right time, colour-coded per medication, with a reminder that actually nags until you tap "Took it". Then it teaches you. Each medication gets its own page with a short animation of what the drug does in your body, how to take it, what to do when you miss a dose, what to expect, what never to do, and a quick quiz so it sticks. WHAT YOU GET • One Today list for every dose, grouped by time, colour-coded per medication • Tap "Took it" to log it. Tap "Missed it?" to say you missed or skipped it, and why, and Pip tells you what to do next • Reminders per dose, with optional 30-minute and 2-hour nudges • Animated lessons for the most common medications, including birth control, isotretinoin (Accutane), atorvastatin, lisinopril and metformin, with more on the way • Blister-pack calendar for the pill (21+7, 24+4, 21-day, 91-day and mini-pill packs), with placebo days explained and a "graduate the pack" moment • Courses with an end date, like Accutane, and the month of birth control after it • Talk to Pip: hold the mic and say the medication name. Speech stays on your phone • A catalog of the most prescribed drugs with dose, timing and food rules built in PRIVACY No account, no ads, no third-party trackers. Your dose history stays on your phone. If you leave "Share anonymous usage data" on, Pip sends anonymous events about which medications you take and when you log doses, under a random ID, so we can learn what actually helps people stay on track. Turn it off any time in Settings. Pip is an educational reminder, not medical advice. Your prescriber, your pharmacist and the leaflet in the box always win.
