We know that you lead a busy life and even though taking a pill may sound simple you may forget to take it at the appropriate time. That’s why our app has been designed to help you avoid taking your pill late or even possibly missing it.   

Our contraceptive pill reminder allows you to set a specific time for a pop-up message to remind you when to take your pill, and highlighting a message for repeat prescriptions.   

The app will help you keep track of all your taken and possible missed pills listing them on your history page. It also displays a countdown to your next pill which comes in handy when you’re traveling abroad.

  It’s simple – tap on the Pill Taken button or just tap on the pill for that day on the blister sheet and that’s it!

App is a good visual, simple design. Picture of the packet to mark where you have started, and count down to next time to take. Notification for the reminder doesn't seem to always come up though. Comes up a few times then doesn't repeat.

Can you please fix it so that you can set reminders for the afternoon. I'm sure it's a simple fix, and it's silly that this hasn't been changed yet.

Arlene Murphy

Simple reminder app that does exactly what it says

Amelia Foster

Hasn't got my particular brand and needs but found one that was similar-ish. They should have a setting when you first start the pill from when your period is predicted, cause the app reminds you of taking the pill as soon as you download it which was annoying cause I downloaded a few days before I could start the pill. Overall it's good at reminding you if your one of those people that will need reminding, especially if it's going to be new to your daily routine.

Brilliant! Can't fault it. I was awful for forgetting to take my pill. It has my exact brand and pill and I haven't missed a pill since installing it!

Loved this app on iOS, and was thrilled to see if could get it on Android. However, I'm finding the android version much harder to use, and it's causing me to forget some pills. The app doesn't work with the notification icon feature in Nova Launcher, which means that if I accidentally hit Clear All on my Notification bar I lose my pill reminder. If the app could work with this feature to let me use a marker on the app icon as a reminder, it would make me forget far fewer pills. Furthermore, last night (Wednesday) the app gave me a notification to take my pill, but inside the app it says my pill isn't due until today, which makes sense as I start new strips on a Thursday evening. The bug worries me because it may not remind me to take my last pill of the strip if the notifications are out of sync. The app interface also looks very out of proportion on my Pixel, whereas it had a beautiful layout on iOS. Overall a very useful app, but could do with a few tweaks to really make it shine on Android.

Ideal App to remind you to take ur pill. The alarm sounds and even vibrates if ur phone is on silent. Love it.

Laura Henry February 5, 2017

Can't change reminder times and even at its default time it doesn't beep

Kate Grigorieva. April 19, 2017

Good. But for unknown reason time can be set up to AM only. It would be nice if this was fixed. But otherwise it's a good app.

Rebecca McClean March 27, 2017

Doesn't give you the option to run packs together.

Charlotte Jensen May 10, 2017

Can't fault it, I'm back on the pill after 12 years, and a always forgot to take it. Not missed one yet...

Can't change reminder time to pm...it's rubbish

Irene Martinez Reyes February 19, 2017

Remainder is not working properly

Julia Odell April 10, 2017

Very helpful reminder system. I like the visual of the progress through the packet and the reminder to get a repeat prescription.

Geraldine Berry April 6, 2017

Has my pill on it it's a great way to remember as i would forget

Kate peng March 1, 2017

Rose Barnett May 9, 2017

Good for reminding but the vibrate is far too agressive

Helena Adade-Bekoe January 3, 2017

Amanda kinsey April 19, 2017

Brilliant app

Courtney Graves May 11, 2016

If you're forgetful get a different app It might just be something on my phone but it doesn't always come up with a reminder, it's happened a few days in a row, luckily I don't forget mine. I had a similar app which without fail always reminded me, bottom line, if you're forgetful try a different app instead, there are loads of free similar ones.

Natalie J Armitage March 18, 2016

The idea is good, functionality needs sorting Would be good to select where on the app you have already started your pack because if you start your pack after starting the app, your already out of sync. Alarm seems intermittent. Needs fine tuning for sure. I know a good developer !!!

Kerry-louise Dawson July 29, 2016

Not very good Doesn't come up with reminders. Is ment to and in the week I've had it only come up with one three hours after I was ment to take it. This needs sorting!

Shannon Thompson August 5, 2016

Don't use if you struggle to remember. It doesn't remind you hardly at all. And if your like me and need the reminder it's pointless to have this app. Now use a different app.

Rachel Gates June 21, 2016

Reminders randomly dont work! The whole reason I have this app is for the reminders. Sometimes they happen and sometimes they don't - how ridiculous! Please sort this out and then it would be bang on, a nice simple app.

Michelle Gerry July 8, 2016

Doesn't work. Only came up with an actual notification reminder once. Since then I have to open the app to confirm pill taken. Pretty rubbish as a notification app.

Jen Lee May 1, 2016

The reminder is very hit and miss which defeats the point of a reminder. I had the windows phone version that had the option to snooze the reminder for 10 mins which was much better.

Helen Lee September 11, 2016

My OC Pill reminder...very useful as I've just switched to the mini pill. Only had one reminder not pop up so far but I think my phone was the problem, not the app.

Kristi Malan September 2, 2016

Not reminding to take a pill With my previous phone it used to remind me to take my pill but with new phone notifications do not pop up! Have uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but no luck

Sarah Grant February 28, 2016

Alarm doesn't go off The alarm I've set to go off and then be on a break to go off again doesn't go off anymore. I've had to set an alarm on my actual mobile to remind me

Hayley Colleran May 17, 2016

It's a good idea for an app, but the reminder only stays on your screen for a minute or so and then disappears. So if you don't see the reminder at the time it goes off then the app is a bit useless.

Emma Smith May 4, 2016

Notifications Worked fine on my windows phone, every alert arrived with an option to delay an hour. Switched to Android last week and haven't recieved a single notification
