If you take pills on a daily basis, this app-accompanying medication reminder will help. Currently seeking finances on crowdfunding platform Kickstarter, Memo Box by Tinylogics is a box that lets you know when your loved ones forget to take their medication, dietary supplements or other daily dose. Memo Box connects to smartphones and tracks the pill intake for you and your family.
Developed by Shan Lu and meichen Lu, the medication reminder and "smart health companion" provides medical intake tracking and tells you if you missed your supplements (unlike stand-alone apps). It will let you know if you left your medicine at home and can even help you prevent accidental double dosing. The device makes taking vitamins and other pills less confusing and ensures your body gets what it needs.
