A pill reminder with no account and no ads
ChronoPill works without an account and shows no ads. Your medication list and dose history are stored on your device, encrypted at rest, and excluded from iCloud, Google and device backups. They leave your device only for features you choose to use, listed below.
No account needed
An account (email and password, or Sign in with Apple) is optional. It is used for your subscription and for support, and your medication list never goes through it.
No ads, no data sold
ChronoPill shows no ads and does not sell your data. Usage analytics exist only on iPhone and only if you opt in; they carry no medication names. The Android app has no analytics.
