DoseBeacon is a pill reminder and family medication tracker for aging parents and the people who help them. Senior Mode shows one large, high-contrast card with four simple responses, with read-aloud and VoiceOver support.
One list covers prescriptions, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins and supplements. Scan a pharmacy label to create a draft you review before reminders start. A Family Care Circle lets approved family members see reported doses, and refill tracking and PDF reports help at doctor visits.
