How it works
Three steps from empty list to a dose you can mark from the shade.
Get the reminder
When a dose is due, Android shows a notification for that medication.
Taken or snooze
Mark Taken from the notification, or snooze for 5 or 10 minutes — without opening the app first.
What you actually get
Features match the Android app — including what is free vs Premium.
Dose reminders
Scheduled dose alerts with Taken and snooze (5 / 10 minutes) actions on the notification.

Google ML Kit scans packaging or label text on the phone. The result fills the name or notes field — not a full prescription parser.

FAQ
Straight answers from how the app is built.
Do I need an account?
No. The app works without registration. Medication data stays on your device.
Is the free plan really free?
Yes, with limits: up to 3 medications by default, and ads may show. Premium removes the cap and unlocks journal, packages, doses, and expiration tracking.
Does OCR work offline?
Yes. Scanning uses Google ML Kit on the device. Text goes into the name or notes field — it does not auto-fill dosage or form.
Can I mark Taken from the notification?
Yes. Notifications include Taken plus snooze for 5 or 10 minutes.
Can I back up my data?
Yes. Export and import a local JSON backup. There is no automatic cloud sync of medications.
Which languages does the app support?
The in-app language picker supports English and Polish.
Is this medical advice?
No. Smart Meds Reminder is a reminder tool only. It does not diagnose, treat, or replace a doctor or pharmacist.
