I'm looking for an open-source medication/pill tracking app.

Requirements:

  • Android support
  • Ability to create custom medication/pill entries
  • Ability to set notification reminders for taking pills
  • Ability to arbitrarily create entries at any date/time

Nice-to-haves:

  • Data export/backup
  • Data-at-rest encryption
  • Data visualizations

Thank you for your suggestion!

Would you be able to provide some screenshots of the application? The website for the application doesn't seem to exist anymore, and the GitHub page doesn't have any images of the application. I must confess, however, that I'm somewhat hesitant to use an application that is no longer maintained, and isn't popular enough to provide a large enough chance of good security due to the sheer number of people looking at the source code and using the app. Granted, the latter could be solved by me "simply" looking through the source, but I confess that this doesn't feel entirely worth it, atm.

It's a pretty simple interface.

That's actually a pretty slick interface. It makes me wonder how many solid apps have been lost to obscurity.

That was part of why I stick with it. Does exactly what I need to to do and nothing more. It also works with my watch for reminders and confirmation of taking the pills.
