Set up in about ten minutes
Make the checklist on your phone
Add each pill, when it's taken, and whether it goes with food. A photo of the bottle helps Mom recognize it.
Connect Mom's iPhone
Send her a 6-digit code by text, or show a QR code if you're together. She doesn't need an account or an email address.
She taps “I took it”
Her iPhone reminds her at each dose time. If a dose isn't checked off, you're alerted after the delay you choose: 30 minutes, 1 hour or 2 hours.

- Nothing to learn, no account, and it's free

Her health information stays private
Her checklist is kept on our server in Canada. It's never sold and never used for ads. We don't collect phone numbers, contacts or location, and everything can be deleted from the app at any time.
Read the privacy policyQuestions
Does Mom need an email address or an account?
No. She enters the 6-digit code once, or points her camera at the QR code, and that's it.
Does it work on Android?
Not yet. For now, both phones need to be iPhones.
What if her phone has no internet?
Reminders are stored on her iPhone, so they still ring. Her check-offs reach you once it's back online.
Can someone use it without a helper?
Yes. A person can set it up alone, for free. Reminders work the same way.
Is SyncPill medical advice?
No. It helps you remember. Always follow the doctor's or pharmacist's instructions.
Where is it available?
Canada, the United States, Mexico, Australia and Japan, in English, French, Spanish and Japanese.
