PillChime - Pill Reminder

by Shu Miao

v1.6 16 MB Universal 4+

Description

Your parents' phone is on silent. Standard reminders are just notifications — they swipe them away.

PillChime uses iOS 26 system alarm technology to ring through silent mode, Do Not Disturb, and Focus. It actually wakes them up.

Built by a solo developer for his own parents.



HOW IT WORKS

Set a medication → Pick a time → Done.
When it's time, PillChime rings just like your morning alarm. Full screen. Can't miss it.
One tap to log. One tap to skip. That's your entire routine.



WHAT MAKES PILLCHIME DIFFERENT

• System-level alarm, not a notification
Silent mode? Still rings. Focus mode? Still rings.

• One-tap check-in
Alarm rings → tap "Take" → dose logged. 2 seconds.

• Weekly report card
See your progress at a glance. Day, week, or month.
Know exactly what was taken and what was missed.

• Follows your text size
PillChime respects your system font settings.
Make it bigger. It just works.

• Built for elderly users
Large buttons. Minimal steps. No learning curve.
If they can use an alarm clock, they can use PillChime.



WHO IT'S FOR

• Adult children managing parents' medication from a distance
• Elderly users who keep their phone on silent
• Caregivers who need a simple, reliable reminder
• Anyone who needs a reminder that actually works

Family sharing is coming soon.

What's new (v1.6)

Each medication in the pill cabinet now has its own reminder toggle, so you can turn reminders off or on for a single pill without deleting it or touching the alarm.
