Most pill apps are meant for scheduled medications, like something you take every morning. But I take a medication on-demand, with the only rule to take at most X per day and wait at least Y hours between taking. So I only need to worry about taking it too often. Is there an app where I can track when I take this medication, and that tells me if I can take another one already?

    I made this app! Built it for myself and my partner because I had exactly the same problem — every other medication app seems to be built for taking something on a regular schedule.

    Not sure if it’s very user-friendly, but it works well for me. There also isn’t an option for more complex rules (just max X doses every Y hours), so you’ll need to set something up that makes sense.

    I’ve got a pending request to have it listed on F-Droid. In the meantime there’s an apk on github, and it seems to be available on Google Play and IzzyOnDroid.
