Here’s a list of 5 pill reminder apps for Android which you can use to never again forget to take your drugs when you need to. Sick people who need to take pills on a schedule sometimes forget to take them, or forget to take all of the meds that they need to take. Most of us have Android phones with us nowadays which can be used to remind us to take our medication.
Let’s see the app’s we found in the Google Play Store.

One situation where a pill reminder app can help a lot is with birth control pills, so it’s not just that individuals who are sick that can benefit using these types of apps.
Miss taking a birth control pill and you’ll end up in all kinds of problems. With this pill reminder app you just need to type in the time when you want to start taking pills and it will take care of calculating your schedule when pills need to be taken, and of course remind you with notifications when you need to take a pill.
