Never miss a dose.
Never worry alone.

If a dose is missed, someone who loves them finds out.
Invite family members or professional carers into a patient's Care Circle. When a dose goes untaken past its window, the circle is alerted. A missed pill becomes a phone call, not a hospital visit.
- Caregivers see doses taken, snoozed, or missed in real time, from anywhere
- Gentle escalation: reminder, then loud alarm, then Care Circle alert
- Carers can manage schedules for several patients — even patients with no phone
Built for real medication routines — and real families.
No other free app combines unlimited medications, caregiver tracking, refill reminders, and interaction checks.
Alarms that never give up
A loud, full-screen, persistent alarm — not a buzz you sleep through. It escalates until the dose is taken or snoozed, then alerts the Care Circle if it never is.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you might be wondering before you start.
Is Medicose really free?
Yes. Every feature — unlimited medications, Care Circle alerts, refill reminders, and interaction checks — is free for patients and caregivers. There’s no premium tier, no ads, and we never sell your data.
How does the Care Circle work?
You invite family members or carers into a patient’s Care Circle. They can see doses as taken, snoozed, or missed in real time, and they’re alerted if a dose goes untaken past its window — so a missed pill becomes a phone call, not an emergency.
Will the alarms work if my phone is on silent?
Medicose uses a persistent, full-screen alarm that escalates and keeps reminding you until the dose is taken or snoozed — not a single notification that’s easy to sleep through or miss.
Which devices does Medicose support?
Medicose runs on iPhone and Android phones. A caregiver can manage medication schedules for several patients from one account — including patients who don’t use a phone themselves.
Can it handle complex medication schedules?
Yes — daily, several-times-a-day, weekly, cyclical (on-and-off), and as-needed schedules, across pills, drops, patches, and injections.
Is my health data private?
Your data is used only to power your reminders and your Care Circle. We don’t sell it and we don’t use it for advertising.
