Medication Timer is a caregiver-focused app for household medication workflows and health context in one place. It helps you track scheduled dose routines (daily, weekly, monthly, hourly, custom intervals, and after another medication is logged), as-needed (PRN) medication timers with safe spacing between doses (including optional staggered follow-ups when you already space two medicines), body temperature logs, and health readings such as blood pressure, blood glucose, SpO₂, INR, weight, and more, organized per family member on a unified Today screen. When someone is acutely unwell, Care sessions bring Timers and Temperatures together in one illness workspace on the Care tab, including care session notes you can dictate on mobile, and optional wellness readings on Family Care (from 2.7.0). Travel is an experimental overlay (from 2.7.0) so you can plan time-critical medications for long-haul trips with your GP or pharmacist. Reminder records do not change.

Use it on iPhone, Android, and the web. On desktop Chrome, the optional Chrome extension side panel shows live dose countdowns while you browse.

The Family Care plan adds multi-caregiver coordination, full Today calendar history, body metrics and pediatric growth charts, trends and family reports, Care medication courses, Care wellness readings, muting travel reminders on the phone that stayed home, RFID coins you program from Profile → Devices (from 2.7.2), and other subscriber tools. A free tier stays useful for many day-to-day needs. See Subscription.

It does not replace medical advice; always confirm doses and care plans with your clinician or pharmacist.
