Everything FamilyDose does
One record for every caregiver, built around the moment someone asks whether a dose was given.
Reminders on every phone
At the times you set, FamilyDose sends a reminder to every caregiver who has reminders on. A reminder can be late or not arrive.
- A reminder at every dose time, free
- Temperature notifications at a number you set, free too
- Missed-dose alerts and extra reminders with Plus
See when the last dose was given
For as-needed medicines, see when the last dose was given and when your chosen gap is up.
- Last dose and who gave it
- A countdown to the gap you set
- Swap medicines, keep the history
The countdown shows the interval you set. FamilyDose does not decide it, and the example on this page is illustrative.
Add a medication by photo
Point your camera at the label. FamilyDose fills in fields for you to check.
- Name, strength and schedule filled in
- You review every field
- Read on your phone when possible
You always review and confirm. Photos you upload and scans the phone can't read are sent to OpenAI to read. The text from a scan is kept while you review it.
Symptoms and doses, side by side
Log a temperature or a note next to the medicine history, not in a separate notebook.
- Temperature and notes in one timeline
- See what was given around a symptom
- Every entry shows who logged it
A summary of what was logged
A short summary of the doses, symptoms and growth you logged.
- Temperature range and severity by day
- How long each medicine was taken
- Plain lines, no interpretation
Descriptive only. Never a diagnosis or a dosing suggestion.
Height and weight over time
Log height and weight and see your own entries on one chart.
- A chart of your own entries
- Age and date on every point
- Your units, metric or imperial
The chart shows only the entries you logged. It does not compare them with other children.
One app for the whole family
Add every person you care for and switch between them in one tap.
- Children, parents, or yourself
- Unlimited patients, free
- Each person has their own record
Switch between households
Look after more than one family? Keep each household separate and switch in a tap.
- Separate caregivers for each home
- Nothing is shared between households
- Multiple households with Plus
Common questions
Is FamilyDose free?
Yes. Unlimited medications and patients, a shared record for your household, dose and symptom logging, a reminder at every dose time, and temperature and extra-dose notifications are free. FamilyDose Plus is an optional extra tier that adds missed-dose alerts, extra reminders, more caregivers, full history and a few conveniences.
Can more than one person use it for the same family?
Yes, that is why it exists. Invite a co-parent, a grandparent or a nanny, and everyone sees the same record. You choose what each person can do. The free plan includes 1 owner plus up to 2 restricted members.
Can I track medications for more than one person?
Yes. Add every patient in your household, whether that is a child, an aging parent or yourself, and switch between them in one app. There is no limit on patients or medications on the free plan.
Does it replace my doctor or pharmacist?
No. FamilyDose keeps records and sends reminders at the times you set. It does not diagnose, prescribe, advise, or tell anyone what or how much to give. Ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Is my family's health data private?
The people you invite can see your household. Anyone you give a link you create yourself, such as a care card link, can see what that link shows. Authorised FamilyDose staff have limited access for support and to keep the service running. FamilyDose does not sell your data or use it for advertising. You can export everything for free and delete your account in the app. The Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy has the details.
Is it available for iPhone and Android?
FamilyDose is being tested on iPhone ahead of an invitation-only beta, which has not started yet. Android is coming. Join the beta list and we will email you when invitations go out.
