Pillo is an Android medication reminder app combining persistent alarms with health tracking features. Designed for users managing multiple prescriptions, it addresses medication adherence through customizable alerts and biometric monitoring capabilities.

Detailed Review

Pillo: Pill Reminder & Tracker positions itself as a comprehensive medication management solution that extends beyond basic alarm functionality. The application serves users requiring regimented medication schedules, particularly those managing chronic conditions requiring multiple daily doses across varying time intervals. The application's core functionality centers around customizable medication scheduling with persistent notification systems. Users can input specific medications, dosages, and administration frequencies, with the system generating corresponding alerts. Beyond basic reminders, Pillo incorporates health tracking features including blood pressure monitoring, glucose level tracking, and weight management tools, creating an integrated health management ecosystem. The platform supports multiple medication types including prescriptions for hypertension, diabetes, arthritis, and contraceptive medications. User experience demonstrates straightforward navigation with intuitive setup processes, as evidenced by multiple reviewers noting the ease of medication entry and schedule configuration. The interface employs clear visual indicators for medication status and upcoming doses, while the alarm system utilizes persistent notifications that continue until manually dismissed or marked as taken. Real-world usage patterns show particular effectiveness for users managing complex medication regimens across multiple daily time windows. User feedback consistently highlights reliability and effectiveness, with Bob Loblaw (August 5, 2025) noting the application resolved previous issues with missed or delayed medications across three daily administration times. Cathy McCoy (August 4, 2025) reported perfect adherence since implementation, while Deb Freele (August 5, 2025) appreciated the persistent notification system that 'nags until pills are taken.' Multiple reviewers specifically mentioned the straightforward setup process and clear interface design as significant advantages. The application demonstrates particular strength in managing complex medication schedules and providing persistent reminders, though some users expressed desire for additional customization options in alert presentation. While effective for most users, those requiring extremely specialized medical tracking or integration with healthcare provider systems might find the functionality limited. The application appears most suitable for individuals managing self-administered medication regimens without requiring professional healthcare integration.

I only take one pill in the morning. I haven't missed it one single time since I started using this app.

so far, its worked perfectly for me. Very easy to put in your actual meds, dosage, and how often you take them. Then I get a notification every time I need to take them. Easy peasy. ❤️

Slightly tricky to navigate scheduling times when setting x/day until you get the hang of it, but over all fantastic app with timers, medication listing, snooze option, and especially(!!) the motivation not to miss your schedule with donations to a choice of charities. I love this app.
