Build a Medicine Reminder App
Develop a health-focused app that reminds users to take their medications on time, tracks adherence, and improves treatment effectiveness—a meaningful app development project in digital health.Missing medication doses is a common issue, especially among the elderly and chronically ill. A reminder app helps users stay on track with their prescriptions. This project teaches you scheduling, notification systems, calendar integration, and healthcare app UX design.
Let users input medication names, dosage, frequency (daily/weekly), and time of day. Send alerts before each dose, track taken/skipped meds, and generate weekly adherence reports to improve health outcomes.
Medication Scheduling
Users can set up multiple medications with timing, dosage, repeat cycles, and start/end dates.
Smart Reminders & Notifications
Send local or push notifications with medicine name, dosage, and ‘Taken’ or ‘Snooze’ buttons.
Adherence Tracking
Log user responses to reminders and track completion history to calculate adherence rates.
Weekly Health Reports
Summarize how many doses were taken vs. missed, and visualize progress with charts.
After entering medicine details, the app schedules alerts at specific times. When a reminder fires, the user can confirm, snooze, or mark it as missed. The app then logs the action and displays adherence stats over time in the dashboard.
- User adds medicine name, dosage, and time(s) of day.
- The app schedules daily or custom-frequency reminders with sound or vibration.
- Users respond to alerts, which are logged as ‘Taken’, ‘Snoozed’, or ‘Missed’.
- Weekly reports show how well the user is following their schedule.
- Optional features include refill reminders and doctor sync export.
