DoseMed is a free, privacy-first medication reminder for iPhone that works without an account.
How it works
Search the FDA database or type any name. Pick the times, the days and the dose.
A notification arrives at each dose time. Tap Taken, Snooze or Skip without opening the app.
Enter the pills in the box and DoseMed counts down with every dose, then warns you before you run out.
Inside the app
Your day at a glance
Daily, weekly or custom schedules with several times a day. Mark a dose Taken, Snooze it for 10 minutes or Skip it right from the notification. Critical alerts can sound even in Do Not Disturb.

Never run out
Enter how many pills are in the box. Every dose you log is subtracted, and DoseMed warns you while there is still time to refill.

Know what you take
Search 9,900+ medications by name, active ingredient or category. Uses, dosage, warnings, side effects and interactions come straight from FDA labelling on DailyMed.

Ask about your list
Ask about possible interactions, side effects or a missed dose. The assistant knows the medications on your list and the chat is discarded when you close it. It is a research aid, not a clinician.

Private by design
Open the app and add your first reminder. There is no sign-up, email address or phone number.
Your medication list, schedule and dose history live on the device, not on a DoseMed server.
Reminders, logging and the drug database work with no connection.
Lock the app with Face ID or Touch ID so a borrowed phone does not reveal your list.

Compiled from Apple Support, the Medisafe help center and U.S. App Store listings, last verified October 2026. “Not advertised” and “Not listed” mean the vendor does not list the feature, not that it is absent. Prices and features change; check each listing before you switch.
Who it's for
Look for an app that works without an account and keeps your list on the device. DoseMed does both: there is no sign-up, your schedule and history are stored on your iPhone, it works offline, and iCloud sync is optional and runs through your own Apple account.
In DoseMed, tap +, search for the medication or type its name, choose the days and times, and save. A notification arrives at each time with Taken, Snooze and Skip buttons, so you can log the dose from the lock screen.
No. There is no sign-up, email address or phone number. Open the app and add your first reminder.
Yes. DoseMed is free to download and every feature works on the free plan. The free plan includes 1 active medication reminder and 3 AI assistant messages.
No. It is a research and organisation aid. It can explain label information and help you prepare questions, but it can be wrong, and it never tells you to start, stop or change a dose.
Yes, if you allow Critical Alerts for DoseMed. They are optional and can sound even during Do Not Disturb or a Focus mode. Regular notifications follow your Focus settings.
