What DoseBeacon does

DoseBeacon is a pill reminder and family medication tracker for aging parents and the people who help them. Large-text reminders for the person taking medication, plus a shared record of reported doses for approved caregivers.

Senior Mode shows one large, high-contrast card at a time with four clear choices: LOG AS TAKEN, LATER, NOT SURE and I NEED HELP. Read-aloud, Dynamic Type and VoiceOver are supported. Reminders are scheduled on the device, so they work without internet. Senior Mode never shows ads or purchase screens.

Keep prescriptions, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins and supplements in one place. Scan a pharmacy label to create a draft with on-device text recognition, then check every field before any reminder turns on. Archive medicines without losing their history.
