Simply, Pill Alert

Submitted by Unregistered User on 24 March 2011

Description of App

Get Simply Pill Alert now and only worry about getting better.

Designed and developed by a real pill taking human, Simply Pill Alert is easy to setup and use, without having to worry about timers, and clocks, and schedules.

In this app, we are foregoing the complexities of similar apps that have many confusing features. All you need to do is to enter a name and the schedule from your pill bottle.

Pill Alert will show you whether you missed taking a dosage, and also show you how late you were taking it.

Just say "Daily pills", and select "Once a day", and tell the app that you have taken them. The rest just happens, - or- make your schedule as complicated as you wish.

Tell the app the schedule you need to take them on, and again tell it when you take your medication. The rest is easy, with one less headache you need to worry about.

Our very short list of key features:

  • Alerts you when your pills are due. You don't need to have the app running.
  • Shows you how late are you taking your pills if you have missed an alert
  • There are no complicated settings or unnecessary features. Taking your pills takes a moment. Using this app should take even less time and effort.

Accessibility Comments

A very simple to use app that is fully accessible.

There's one cryptic button label, but tap on it and you will soon realize that you are on the Help page.

Adding new medications is simple, just tap the 'Add' button, then enter a name and schedule.

The app's main screen will show your medications, and VoiceOver will happily announce how long until you need to take each one. When the medication is due, an alert sounds. You are then given the option of confirming that you have taken the medication or saying that you will take it later. If you take the medication now, the schedule will start counting down again. If you leave it until later, you will have to go back into the app and tell it that you have now taken the medication.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads all page elements.

Button Labelling

Most buttons are clearly labelled.

Usability

The app is fully accessible with VoiceOver and is easy to navigate and use.
