## Description

TOM is a free, ad-free and anonymous daily medication reminder with an integrated medicine list and log, making it easy to manage medicines and record measurements and activities. It is a fully integrated medical assistant with a daily pill reminder that also supports measurement entries, activity tracking, and health graphs for quick, at-a-glance insights.

Developed by patients, for patients, TOM simplifies adding new medicines, generating PDFs of monthly health reports, and securely logging your treatment history. It combines a medicine list, health measurements (like blood pressure and weight), and activity tracking in one private, encrypted solution. No registration is required and data remains linked to a randomly generated ID, with two-way encryption to protect privacy.

## Review summary

Users repeatedly praise TOM Medication & Pill Reminder for being ad-free, easy to use, and reliable for tracking meds and reminders, with features like automatic 'taken on time' status and a small rewards touch. However, recurring complaints include unreliable notifications (often after meds are taken or requiring internet), lack of offline mode, no cross-device sync or backup accounts, bugs in adding meds or manual entry, and occasional language/translation issues. Feature requests include barcode scanning and calendar views for schedules.

- Easy to set up and intuitive UI for adding/removing meds.
- Reliable tracking and reminders; helps take meds on schedule (taken-on-time feature).
- Does not require internet or online accounts; usable offline.
- Small motivational feature like a 'picture of the day' reward.

### Cons

- Unreliable notifications and potential for multiple alarms or reminders after meds are taken.
- Lacks offline mode; some functions require constant internet access.
- No cross-device sync or account-based backup; data not shareable across devices.
- Bugs in adding meds and manual entry (e.g., quantity input) and occasional missing pill images.
- Language/localization issues (some error messages not in English).
