Welcome to Indie App Spotlight. This is a weekly 9to5Mac series where we showcase the latest apps in the indie app world. If you’re a developer and would like your app featured, get in contact. Have you ever wanted a medicine tracker that keeps you motivated, is interactive, and fun to use? Pill Buddy is the answer for you. Designed by a former Duolingo Product Manager, Pill Buddy truly encapsulates everything engaging and applies it to yet another pesky chore: medicine. Top features Pill Buddy has all of the basic features you’d expect in a medicine tracking app. You can log your medicines, receive reminders, and keep track of everything from convenient home screen widgets. Pill Buddy actually takes reminders a step further, and has an option to give you an actual phone call when you need it. Beyond the basics, Pill Buddy has a number of features to keep you hooked. For one, you have a personal mascot in the app. When you keep on track with your doses, you earn stars (which can be used to buy items to personalize your mascot). When you miss a dose (or continually do so), your mascot will look sad. If you stay on top of things though, you’ll build a streak – all while continuing to earn stars for your mascot. It’s meant to feel personal, motivating, and fun. Pill Buddy also lets you customize your schedule for each medicine while you’re setting it up, so the app adopts to your needs. Pill Buddy is available for free on the App Store for iPhones running iOS 18.1 or later. It’s also available on macOS and visionOS as an iOS app. The app has no ads. The developer, Kai, left his full time job at Duolingo to pursue indie development as a full-time gig – so if this app is something you’ve been looking for, give it a go!
