What My Medicine Cabinet does

No check-in for the medicines entered at first setup

Medicines typed in during the guided setup are the starting point, not a change in treatment, so the app no longer asks how you have been since each was added. Anything added, changed or stopped after setup still leads to one short check-in.

Tap a time of day — and reach the as-needed medicines fast

The four squares on the home screen say plainly what they are for: a line above them reads “Tap a time of day when you have taken those medicines”, and each square carries “Tap when taken” until it turns green with “Taken”. Right beside them sits an amber “If needed” button showing how many as-needed medicines you have in stock — no longer a small chip at the bottom of the page, so relief is one tap away on the day you are in pain.

Choose which feelings you track

In Settings under Doctor and care you can tick exactly which feelings the daily check-in asks about — sleep, appetite, energy, how I feel, pain, breathing, dizziness, getting around. Agree the list with your doctor or carer; the dials on your first screen and the check-in both follow it. One button hands the choice back to the app.

Signing in asks how you feel today

Once Ollie's hello is closed, the “How I feel today” card opens by itself if you have not checked in yet — the same faces for sleep, appetite, energy and mood, filled in once and then left alone for the rest of the day.

A mark for medicines taken only when needed

Medicines you take only when needed now carry a small amber hand symbol on your home screen and in your medicine cabinet. Tap it and a window shows the dose, how much is left, how many you have taken today, any gap or daily limit your doctor set, and one large button to record the dose.

Combination tablets are checked ingredient by ingredient

A tablet that holds two or three active substances — co-codamol, Valsartan HCT, Ramipril comp., Madopar, Targin — is now taken apart and every ingredient is checked, not just the first one. Pack wording the app used to trip over is ignored: strengths, “Filmtabletten”, “retard”, and the maker's name. The check is also stricter about look-alike names, so Methylprednisolon is no longer read as prednisolone and Dihydrocodein is no longer read as codeine. If two of your medicines contain the same active substance, that is now pointed out as well.

Only the check-in dials that fit your medicines

The first screen shows four check-in dials for everybody — sleep, appetite, energy and how you feel — and adds up to two more only when your own medicines make them worth asking: pain when you take a painkiller, breathing when you use an inhaler or spray, dizziness with blood-pressure, water or sleeping tablets, and getting around with joint, rheumatism or Parkinson medicines. Resting on a dial (or reaching it with the keyboard) now shows the answer in words — very poor, poor, okay, good, very good — instead of the bare number, so the score never has to be worked out. The longer check-in still asks everything, so nothing has been taken away.

The daily check-in is answered once a day

After you save how you feel, the check-in closes for the day: opening it again shows your answers as you gave them, greyed out, so nothing can be changed later by mistake. It opens again at midnight — and straight away if a medicine is added, changed or stopped, so you can say how you feel on the new medicine.

How you feel today, in more than one word

The daily check-in now asks about more than sleep, appetite and energy. You can also say, on the same 1-to-5 faces, how you feel, how your breathing is, whether you feel dizzy and how well you are getting around. Nothing is required — answer only what matters today. “How I feel” now has its own dial on the first screen beside the others, and everything you enter travels into your reports and to your doctor as before.

The filling button only appears when it is time

Once your box is filled, the “Pill Box Refilled” button is put away so you cannot press it twice by mistake — in its place a quiet line says when you filled it and the day to fill it again. It comes back by itself on the day the box needs filling, the day before it runs empty and the same day as your reminder, and also if one medicine runs low and empties the box sooner, or if you have never marked the box as filled.

As needed means no schedule

A medicine you take only when you need it is never listed as “needs a schedule”. That warning is now kept for a regular medicine saved without any doses. As-needed medicines simply read “As needed — no fixed schedule”, and if you add roughly how often you take one per week, the app still works out when the pack runs out.

The day at a glance, not in words

Your greeting and the date open the screen in large type, and under them three small dials for sleep, appetite and energy that you tap to fill in. A circle at the top of your first screen fills up as the day goes on — “3/4 doses” — beside four large buttons for morning, midday, evening and night. Each shows how many pills are still waiting, the next one due is outlined, and it turns green with a tick when that time of day is done; tapping it records the doses and takes them off your count. Below sit three colour-coded boxes: supply (a gauge with the days left on whichever medicine runs out first), safety (interactions still to answer) and your next appointment — green and wordless when all is well, explaining themselves only when something needs doing.

Know when your pill box runs empty

Your pill box page shows the day the box will be empty, counted from the day you last filled it and from how much of each medicine you really have. If one medicine gives out before the box period is over, it is named so you can reorder in time. You are told the day to fill it again — the day before — and on that day you get a reminder, on the page and through your normal alerts.

Filling the weekly box doesn't change your counts

Since ticking a dose as taken already removes those pills, filling the box no longer removes a week's worth as well. “Pill Box Refilled” just records that the box is ready; your on-hand numbers and reorder dates stay the same and drop one dose at a time as you tick them off.

Ticking a dose takes the pills off your count

Marking your morning, midday, evening or night medicines as taken — in the pill box, on the day view, or by answering a reminder by e-mail or text — now removes those pills from the number on hand at once, so what is left and when to reorder follow what you actually take. A skipped dose leaves the pills in the count, and clearing a tick puts them back. Answering the same reminder twice never counts twice. Medicines are also set and shown with all four times of day — morning, midday, evening and night — so a plan such as 1-0-1-1 can be entered exactly as prescribed.

A check-in whenever a medicine is added, changed or stopped

The daily wellbeing check stays as it is. On top of it, the app now notices when your regular medicines really change — a new one added, a dose or time of day altered, one stopped — however the change was made, and asks a short question: how you feel on the same 1-to-5 faces, anything new you have noticed, anything else. The answer stays with the change, so the effect of a change in medication is visible instead of guessed at.

Easier to use on a phone

The weekly pill box now shows one day at a time on a phone: a row of day buttons with today already chosen, then each time of day as its own card with big rows you tap once to mark a medicine taken. No more dragging a table sideways. The medicines list is the same story — large cards with the picture, the name, what it is for, how much is on hand and the status. On a laptop, and when printing, the familiar week table is unchanged.

A key for the check-in faces

Today’s check-in is answered by tapping one of five faces, and a key above the questions now names each one — very poor, poor, okay, good, very good — with a reminder that pain runs the other way, so the happy face means no pain. On a phone the faces spread across the full width under the question and stay finger-sized. Site administration and QA test runs sit in their own “Administration” menu group, visible only to administrator accounts.

Today's health is the first screen

Signing in opens one panel, in large high-contrast type, that answers everything at once: the greeting and date, how many of today's medicines are taken, which time of day is next and at what time, today's adherence with the 30-day figure beside it, what needs reordering, the countdown to the next appointment, important medicine changes, what the coach noticed, and today's wellbeing check-in. One big button marks the next time of day as taken, so the morning routine is finished without leaving the screen; every panel links to the page behind it and the day view, calendars and supply list are still below.

Pills and creams in one day view

The weekly pill box now shows tablets and applications together: each compartment — Morning, Midday, Evening, Night — lists everything due at that time, with creams, sprays, drops and patches marked “Apply” and shown in their own unit (1 g, 2 puffs, 3 drops). A time of day only counts as done when the pills and the applications are both ticked off, and the picture of your real box still shows only what is physically packed, with a note of how many applications are due that day.

Courses add the times of day they need

If a treatment plan asks for a noon or bedtime dose and you do not use that time yet, saving the course switches it on for you, with a sensible default time and the matching reminder. The dose then appears on the dashboard day view, the week and month calendar, the pill box and the tick-off list like any other.

Recording an as-needed dose, and whether it helped

Adding an as-needed medicine now asks the clinical questions a doctor would: why it is taken, how much one dose is, the most doses allowed in a day or a week, the shortest gap between two doses, whether it goes with food, where it is kept and when it expires. Today’s Health shows an “Available if needed” list — nothing is due there, but each medicine shows the dose, how many you have already taken today and one button to record one. If you are inside the doctor’s limits it simply records; if you are over the daily maximum or too soon after the last dose, a plain warning says so. Afterwards you can tap 1 to 5 to say whether it helped, so the doctor can see whether the medicine is doing its job.

As-needed tablets, counted properly

Mark a medicine as “as needed” and its page gets a card where you tap “I took one now”, with the amount and an optional reason. Stock drops straight away, and the last four weeks of entries drive the run-out date and reorder warning, so the forecast matches your real habit. As-needed medicines cannot be put on the daily timetable — the morning/midday/evening boxes are cleared and they stay out of the pill box and reminders.

One place for your choices

Every personal setting — including your pill box (type, days, compartments, named model or a photo of your own box) — lives in My settings under Look and feel, instead of being scattered across the working screens.

Plain words when nothing is scheduled

If every medicine is marked “as needed”, the weekly pill box and the dose reminders explain why they are empty — as-needed medicines are taken only when needed, so they never sit in a compartment or get a reminder time — and tell you to add a morning, midday, evening or bedtime amount to see them there.

The same screens on phone and computer

The phone now shows exactly the same layout as the computer: the same dashboard overview and the same weekly pill box table, which you scroll sideways with a finger on a narrow screen. Reminders on your phone are unchanged — dose reminders by e-mail, SMS or browser, ringtone or vibration, quick unlock and the home-screen shortcut all work as before.

Today and this week at a glance

Morning, midday, evening and bedtime doses on one card, with the week and month ahead beside it, labelled with the calendar week number of the year.

Tick off what you took

One tap marks a whole time of day as taken; stock goes down automatically and the pill box empties for that slot.

Reminders that suit you

Email, SMS or browser reminders per time of day, with ringtone or vibration on your phone, and a reply that records whether you took it. Text messages never name a medicine — they say only which check-in is due and carry a secure link to the details behind your sign-in, so nothing sensitive shows on a lock screen.

Refills by days or by boxes

You can now say how each medicine is ordered. In the US a prescription is written as a days supply, so keep the 30, 60 or 90 day setting. In Germany the doctor prescribes a package — N1, N2, N3 or a count such as 100 — so choose whole packages and say how many boxes. The batch fill plan then shows "1 box of 100, lasts about 50 days" instead of a day count you have to work out.

A care scorecard to hand the doctor

A new report puts the whole picture on one page: adherence over seven and thirty days, your average feeling out of five over the last fourteen days with the trend, how many check-ins you made, and the medicines running low. The fourteen days are listed day by day underneath. Print it, save it as a PDF, export it or add it to your visit pack.

Refill requests in English or German

Two large buttons above the refill message choose the language of the whole request: the text on screen, the subject and the e-mail your doctor receives, down to the dosing lines and the confirmation buttons. It is separate from the app language, so an English app can still send a German practice a German request. Arrows next to each extra page set the order in which the plan, wellbeing, adherence and referral sections follow the request.

Choose what else the doctor gets

Ordering by whole packages now hides the day lengths entirely — a German prescription is packages or days, never both, and the box count you pick is highlighted. Under the refill message you can tick extra pages for the same e-mail: your current medication plan in BMP wording, how you have been feeling over the last seven days, and how reliably you have taken your doses.

See Ollie's suggestions

When you tap Ollie's suggestions line on the home screen, it takes you straight to a new page. You'll see each suggestion with a clear reason why it's there and a button to get it done. The chat is still just a tap away at the bottom.

Add a medicine by its kind

Pick the kind first — tablet, liquid, cream, spray, patch or injection. Tablets keep morning, midday, evening and bedtime counts; creams and sprays just ask when you use them and where on the body. A legend explains the symbols on the list.

Phone reminders, even when the app is closed

On a phone or tablet with the app installed, the reminder comes from the device itself at each set time. It never names a medicine — only how many are due — and carries “Taken”, which ticks off the whole time of day, and “In 15 minutes”.

Say whether the practice sends the prescription to your pharmacy

Two buttons on the refill page: the practice sends the prescription straight to your pharmacy, or you collect it at the practice and take it there yourself. The request says so in plain words, naming your pharmacy, and your answer is remembered for next time.

Get a reminder before a medicine runs out

For every medicine the app knows when to reorder, from how you fill it and what is left. You choose whether you are reminded in the app only, or also by email and text. A text reminder never names a medicine — it only says to open the app and order.

Format the refill message

Bold, Italic and Bullet points buttons above the message make the request easier to read. Select words, press the button, and the doctor sees proper bold, italic and bullets in the email.

One tap to ask, and never twice for the same medicine

The refill page ticks everything that is running low and writes the message for you, so a large Send button finishes the job. Anything a medicine is already waiting on the doctor for is marked and locked, so the same box cannot be asked for twice. Language, collection and extras are folded under “More options”.

Order by package or by days, and ask for referrals visit by visit

Each medicine in the batch fill has its own Packages or Days buttons, so one can be ordered as two boxes and the next as ninety days, and the choice is remembered. When booking an appointment you can tick that you need a referral for it and say why; the refill page then lists your upcoming visits with tick boxes, already ticked where you flagged them, and the message to your practice ends with the date, the visit, the doctor and the reason for each one.

Ask for referrals in the same refill message

If you still need a referral, tick “Referrals I still need” on the refill page — always available, with boxes to type the specialty and reason when none are saved — and the request lists them — specialty, doctor and reason — under your medicines, so one message to the practice covers both. You can also pick which upcoming appointment the referral is for.

Treatment plan offered for creams, sprays and drops

When you add or change a medicine that is not a tablet — a cream, ointment, spray, drops or a patch — the form now offers a treatment plan right there. Switch on “Set up a treatment plan after saving” and the plan window opens the moment the medicine is saved, so a tapering cream or a two-weeks-then-once-daily schedule is captured while you are still thinking about it. If the medicine already has a plan, the form says so and gives you a button to open it.

A record of every refill, and a countdown

Every time you press “Pill Box Refilled” the app keeps a full note: the date, who pressed it, the size of box, and for each medicine how much you take a day, how much went into the box and how much you had on hand. Open “Refill history” on the pill box page to read it back, newest first, with what changed since last time — for example “Metformin: 60 on hand, was 88 (-28)” — and which medicines are new in the box or gone from it. The entries cannot be edited or deleted. The “when your box runs empty” card now leads with a large countdown of the days until your next refill; it turns amber on the day and says plainly when it is overdue.

Tap any word to see the detail

Every sentence the app writes about your day is now made of links. “Medicines” opens your medicine list, “appointment” opens Appointments, “refill” or “pharmacy” opens Reorder, “interaction” opens the interaction check — and a medicine mentioned by name opens that medicine’s own page. This is the standard everywhere, so the detail behind a sentence is always one tap away. Signing out now clears everything held on the device and returns you to the public start page.

Nothing to save — your forms save themselves

Your details, health information and the doctor, pharmacy and insurer cards no longer have a Save button. A second after you stop typing the change is stored and a small “Saved” appears beside the heading, so nothing is lost if the phone rings or the page is closed. A new contact is created as soon as it has a name and then keeps itself up to date. Buttons remain only where something is actually sent — emails, refill requests and reports.

A picture for every medicine

Add a medicine and the app looks up the official product picture for you and stores it privately: the US medicine register first and, if nothing is found there, a public German pharmacy shop searched by the name on the box or by the PZN, so European packs get a picture too. Photograph the pack to read the details and that photo is kept as the medicine’s picture. Medicines added earlier are caught up automatically in the background, and the picture then shows in the medicine list, on the medicine page, in the supply list on your overview and in the daily pill box. You can replace or remove them any time.

Run-out dates follow your treatment course

When a medicine is on a doctor's phased plan — twice a day, then once a day, then every other day — the supply forecast now averages what the plan actually asks for over the next four weeks, instead of assuming every day is a busy day.

Look up a medicine and save its picture

Type the name on the box and press Look up. The app checks the public medicine registers and fills in the official name, the active ingredient, strength, form and what it is for, with a percentage showing how sure each value is, plus a short description of what the tablet normally looks like. When an official product picture exists it is saved to your private cabinet automatically, and a small thumbnail then appears beside the medicine in your list. Nothing changes until you press Use these details. Over-the-counter German chemist products are recognised too — foam creams and foot care such as Allpresan, skin and wound care, plasters and supplements — and for anything sold in a tube, can or bottle the unit and pack size (for example a 125 ml can) are filled in as well, so supply and run-out stay correct.

Exact run-out and reorder dates

From your real tablet counts and doses per day — with a warning before you run out, not after.

Refills and pharmacy costs

A ready-to-send refill request to your doctor, and every receipt logged for your insurance claim. On the dashboard, tap the days-left figure of anything running low to reorder it, or tick several and send one grouped request instead of an e-mail per medicine. Each medicine in the request now carries its dosing plan in the familiar 1-0-1-0 scheme (morning-midday-evening-night), so the doctor sees exactly how it is taken. The request also lists your complete current medication list — every medicine you take, including as-needed ones — so the doctor reviews the whole regimen at a glance.

One synchronised batch fill

The Refills page proposes a single fill length (30, 60 or 90 days) and one shared order-by date for every medicine. After you speak to your doctor, enter the agreed number of days — per medicine if it differs — and the app works out exact quantities and whole packs, subtracting what you already have, so one call covers the whole cabinet.

Colour-coded cards, and a safety card that says “reviewed”

Every card on the first screen now carries its own colour on the icon — medicines blue, guidance amber, appointments violet, reordering teal, safety pink, insurance indigo — so you find the one you want by colour before reading a word. And once every interaction has been reviewed and your doctor told, the safety card no longer just goes quiet: it shows a green tick, “Reviewed — doctor notified”, and the date you confirmed it.

Automatic serious-interaction warnings can be answered too

When a medicine change turns up a serious interaction, the app writes to you, to an assigned care giver and to your main doctor by itself. Those automatic e-mails now carry the same one-tap buttons as the ones you send by hand — “I received this” for everyone, plus “I have reviewed this” for the doctor — each on a personal link, so the app records who answered, which button they pressed and when. Every automatic warning also appears in your interaction history with its status, and the red “still waiting” banner clears on all your devices as soon as somebody answers.

Serious interactions are sent out at once — and a dose can't be ticked too early

When a change to your medicines throws up a serious interaction, everyone who needs to know is told the same minute: you, whoever cares for you, and the doctor on file. A red band then stays on every screen until somebody answers it — “I've spoken to my doctor” or “already discussed” — and the answer is kept in your account, so what you tick on the computer is already ticked on the telephone. Separately, a dose can only be ticked off from an hour before its set time; earlier than that the app says how long is left and asks whether you really did take it early, and records it as an early dose if you did. Nothing is ever blocked.

Every medicine is assessed — and the page says so

The interactions page now names each of your medicines and how it was assessed: checked against the rule list, applied to the skin (checked, but with negligible effect on tablets), or checked with AI help when the substance is not in the list. Combination products such as “Dutasteride/Tamsulosin” are split, so both substances are checked, and a heading tells you plainly how many of your medicines were assessed — twelve of twelve, not seven. Anything AI helped with is labelled as such and should be confirmed with your doctor or pharmacist.

One daily overview, one card at a time

The first screen is now a single quiet overview. Your greeting and today’s health are one block, and everything else is a row of plain cards in the order a day is lived: medicines, your Health Guide, appointments, reordering, interactions and insurance. Each card states one thing in large type and opens the page behind it when tapped; fold away the ones you do not need and the app remembers, on the phone and on the computer alike. The week and month calendars now sit with the pill box and the full supply list with reordering, so nothing is said twice. Under your name there is now a short healthy thought for the day — a new encouraging line each time you sign in, instead of the old fixed sentence.

Interaction warnings that are followed through

Each interaction is now kept as its own item with a history: found, reviewed by you, sent to a doctor or pharmacist, answered, and settled or closed. After you send it, the page says when it went and to whom and that an answer is awaited — and asks nothing more of you meanwhile. When the answer comes, record it in one tap: keep taking and watch for symptoms, reviewed and accepted, or something needs changing. From then on it stays in the list, the reports and the visit summary but stops alerting you anywhere. The check runs again by itself whenever a medicine is added, edited, imported from a photo, changed after a visit or stopped, and only a genuine change — a different medicine, dose, strength, form, time of day or treatment stage — speaks up again. Nothing is repeated for an interaction you have already dealt with, and everything is kept with your account, so the phone and the computer always agree. The answer you record is shown back to you: the button you chose turns green with a tick and a line says on which date it was saved.

Calmer by default

Nothing shouts before it needs to. Daily confidence and the day’s story are now one block instead of two cards saying the same thing twice, and a medicine that is not due yet never counts against you — only a time of day that has already passed. Red is kept for what is genuinely unsafe: a serious interaction your doctor has not heard about, or a medicine that has run out. Everything else is amber. At most three further things are listed, each a large tappable line, and today’s medicines stay the next step until they are done.

Quiet warnings once your doctor knows

When you send an interaction to your doctor — or tick “my doctor has been told” — that interaction goes quiet: it stays on the list and in the reports, but it no longer sets off alerts, coach cards or the red band on the home screen. The tick is remembered per interaction, not for the whole list, so nothing is silenced by accident. Add a new medicine, change one, or have a warning become more serious, and the checker runs again by itself: the new finding is loud, an amber note on the interactions page says how many are new since you last wrote to your doctor, and the tick clears until you send the update. Untick it any time to bring the alerts back.

Tap what needs taking care of

When the card says “Let’s take care of something together”, everything it means is listed underneath as large tappable lines — the low supply, the interaction to review, the visit to prepare, the coach suggestion — each one opening the right page. You never have to guess what “something” is.

Daily confidence at the very top

Above everything else, the home screen now shows one small card that answers a single question: am I on top of today? A green band says everything looks on track, an amber band names the one thing that needs attention, and a red band says let’s take care of something together — shown when two or more things are waiting, or when a serious interaction has not yet been passed to your doctor. Under the sentence sits one large button with the next step, and nothing else: start today’s medications, review a refill, review an interaction, tell your doctor, prepare an appointment, review the treatment plan, open the coach or review your health details. The colour and the button are worked out by the app’s own rules from your doses, supplies, interactions, appointments, medicine changes, outstanding requests to your doctor and open coach suggestions — AI is never asked what the status is.

Your day in one short story

The home screen now opens with a few plain sentences that say how today stands: what is still to be taken and when, whether anything is running low, whether an interaction still needs telling the doctor, what the next appointment is, and whether the check-in is done. Underneath, anything that needs attention is listed as short chips, and when there is nothing, it says so in one line. The five boxes have not gone away — they are behind a “Show details” button, so the first thing seen is the conclusion rather than five figures to compare. The wording can be phrased more warmly by the coach when you have allowed AI help; all the numbers come from the app's own calculations, never from AI, and if the wording would not match them, the plain version is shown instead.

As-needed medicines are in the interaction check

Medicines you only take when you need them are compared with the rest of your cabinet, and now you can see it: the Interactions page says how many medicines were checked and how many are as-needed, and each finding involving one is tagged “As needed” with a note that the risk applies whenever the two overlap. On the medicine page a coloured warning appears above “I took one now” if that tablet has a moderate or serious interaction, with a link to the details. The alert e-mail to the doctor carries the same note.

Interaction warnings in plain language

Risky pairs flagged from curated European datasets, colour-coded by severity, with sources you can cite. After every check the app asks right away whether to notify your doctor when something moderate or worse turns up. Each finding answers “Should I tell my doctor?”, and one tap e-mails all moderate and higher findings to your doctor, pharmacy or yourself. Once the e-mail is sent, a tick box labelled “Doctor has been notified.” stays on the page with the date, so you can see at a glance that it is done.

Ask for referrals and a refill in one printed pack

The visit pack now offers two more reports. “Referral requests” lists the referrals you need — who to be referred to, the specialty, the reason, which upcoming appointment it belongs to and whether it is booked yet — followed by your next appointments. “BMP medication summary” prints your current medicines in the German BMP columns: active ingredient, brand, strength, form, 1-0-1-1 dosing and notes. Tick them together with “Refills and requests” and the doctor gets referrals, the refill list and the medication summary in one document.

Save what to include as a set for future visits

Give your ticked reports a name — “Cardiologist”, “Family doctor” — and the visit pack remembers them, together with the language you print in. Next time, one tap on the saved set rebuilds exactly the same pack. Saving under the same name updates it; the bin removes it.

Print the visit pack in the language your doctor reads

The visit pack now has its own language choice — English, German, Dutch, Spanish or Italian. Pick a language and the whole pack, every heading, column and note, is rewritten in it straight away, ready to print, save as a PDF, export or share. The rest of the app stays in your own language.

The pack translates your own words too

Choosing the language of a visit pack now also translates what you typed yourself — appointment details, notes on a medicine, the reason for an as-needed dose, your check-in remarks — so the whole sheet reads in one language. Numbers, doses, dates and names are never changed, and your original wording stays untouched in the app.

Choose the reports your doctor gets — printed as one pack

Before an appointment, pick exactly which reports to bring: medication plan, adherence, visit summary, health timeline, refills and interaction review. They are combined into a single, well laid out document with your name and the date, ready to print for the doctor, download as a PDF, export as a spreadsheet or share.

Directions, a map and the mileage for every visit

Each appointment shows the doctor or practice with the saved address, a large “Get directions” button that opens the route from home in your maps app, and — where maps are switched on — a small map of the building. The distance there and back appears beside each visit in the list, and “Coming up” and “Finished visits” each end with the total distance for those visits.

Your next visit, and anything left to finish

The Appointments tile on your home screen names your next visit — what it is, the date and the time. If a visit has come and gone without being wrapped up, an amber line underneath says so and opens that visit straight at its wrap-up. The pill box countdown wording was darkened so the amber text is readable on a white card.

“What happened” waits until the visit has taken place

On an appointment page, the “What happened” step is now greyed out until the appointment time has passed, so nothing can be written up before the visit. A short line explains why. Travel distances have moved off the appointment page — they live on the Travel page, where the whole year is kept together.

Travel records name the doctor, clinic or hospital

Your year-end travel list and report now show who you went to see — the doctor’s name together with the practice, clinic or hospital from the appointment — not just the street address. Both addresses and the distance stay on the line, so a tax office or insurer can see at a glance what each journey was for.

Search and pick the practice address for a visit

When adding an appointment you can search for the address by postcode, street or practice name and pick it from the list. The exact address is filled in for you — and the practice name too — so the travel distance for that visit, and the mileage on your travel and tax report, are worked out from a real address instead of a typed guess.

Put an appointment in your own calendar

Once a visit is booked, one button saves it to the calendar you already use — your phone or computer calendar, Google Calendar or Outlook. The date, time, the practice name and the address go with it, and a reminder is set two hours before. Visits without a time are added for the whole day.

Travel distances to appointments, worked out for you

Every appointment quietly works out its own travel distances. The app takes the home address on your record, the address of the appointment, and looks up the driving route there and back — there is nothing to fill in and no costs to type. The Travel distances page gathers every journey of the year with the destination, the address you set off from, the address you arrived at and the kilometres, and the matching report prints, saves as a PDF or downloads as a spreadsheet so you can hand over the full year in one go. Distances are driving estimates for your own records, not tax advice.

German pack pictures found by name, and trips measured on their own

Two everyday things now look after themselves. A German medicine typed in without a PZN is looked up by its printed name in the German pack listing, so boxes such as creams, drops and retard tablets get their picture instead of a grey placeholder; a medicine saved earlier has a “Look for a picture” button on its own page. And a booked appointment with an address now measures its own journey from your home address the next time you open Appointments or Travel distances, so the year-end list fills itself without you touching anything.

Call a visit off, move it, or tidy it away

Every appointment now has its own actions under Details, in large buttons. Move it to another day and the old date stays in your history while every reminder moves with it. Call it off with a simple reason — I cannot make it, the practice cancelled, no longer needed, entered twice — add a note if you like, and undo it in one tap if it goes ahead after all. Finished or cancelled visits can be put in the archive, out of your lists but still in reports and history, and brought back at any time. Removing an entry is only for something typed by mistake: if the visit holds part of your medical record — what happened, medicine changes, tests, referrals or follow-ups — the app refuses, says exactly what it holds, and offers to call it off or archive it instead.

After a visit: what did the doctor say or change?

Save an appointment for today or an earlier day and the app now asks the full set of follow-up questions in large buttons: the doctor told me something, a new medicine, a treatment or cream plan, a dose or instruction changed, a medicine was stopped, I was sent to another doctor, or a follow-up appointment. “The doctor told me something” opens a box for what was said and keeps it with that visit; the medicine and treatment forms open with the doctor and visit already filled in; the referral button opens the doctor lookup so the new specialist is saved with address and telephone. You can answer more than one, and if you did not answer at the time, every past visit in the list now has a “What came out of this visit” button to answer later.

Say which doctor an appointment is with

Every appointment can now name the doctor or clinic. Choose one of your saved doctors, type a name, or tap “Add a doctor with lookup” to search for the practice and store its address, telephone and e-mail without leaving the form. The name appears next to the entry in the list, and after the visit the app asks whether that doctor prescribed or changed anything — a new medicine, a treatment or cream plan, or a follow-up appointment — filling the doctor in for you. Appointments in the future say plainly that the question comes after the visit.

Appointments have their own page

Appointments, visits, scans and treatments now have their own page: “Appointments” under Care in the menu, or the Appointments tile on the phone, shows the form and the whole list on one screen. Every line has a pencil beside the bin: tap it and the entry — type, description, date and note — is loaded back into the form above, with a reminder that you are changing an existing entry. Press “Save changes” and the timeline, the visit summary and the coach follow the new date at once; Cancel leaves it untouched. Features and Plans have moved out of the menu into the footer, where visitors and companies can reach them too. Every box on Today’s health is now a link too — next dose, appointment, refills and the check-in all open the right page, and empty ones invite you to add the first entry. And when you save an appointment for today or an earlier day, the app asks what came out of it: a new medicine, a treatment plan or cream schedule, or a follow-up appointment — the medicine form opens with the doctor and the visit already filled in.

Saved doctors and clinics fill in their own address

When you book a visit and pick a doctor, practice, hospital or laboratory you have already saved in your settings, the place and the full address are filled into the appointment for you. Anything you typed yourself stays as it is — only empty boxes, or boxes filled by an earlier pick, are replaced — and you can still correct them by hand or use the address search. Because the address comes straight from your saved contact, the travel distance for that visit and the kilometres on your travel report are right from the start.

Decide exactly what is on a report

Above every report and the visit pack, untick the sections and single columns you do not want, leave off header details, give the sheet your own title and one line of your own, hide empty sections and switch to a compact layout. The choice applies to the screen, printing, the PDF, the spreadsheet and sharing, and is remembered for that report. You also choose the typeface, text size, bold headings, a bold first column, upright or sideways pages and the margins. Arrows next to each section put them in the order you want.

A guide frame that photographs your prescription for you

When you photograph a prescription or a medication plan, lines now appear on the screen in the shape of the sheet. Lay the paper flat inside them and the app watches the picture: it tells you in large words to come closer, move back, hold still or find more light, and as soon as everything is right it takes the photo itself — no button to press. You can still press the shutter yourself, or switch the automatic photo off. The camera itself was rebuilt so it starts reliably on Android telephones, waits for a real picture before letting you shoot, and never saves a black frame.

Your adherence pattern, not just a number

Under the adherence ring, thirty small squares show your last thirty days at a glance — green for a complete day, amber for a partial one, red for a missed one — with a line telling you how many complete days you are on and which time of day slips most often. The adherence page adds the full grid, a row per morning, noon, evening and night, with a plain-language summary of your best run and any weekend gap. Built from the doses you already tick off; the percentages stay as they are.

A medication overview in BMP format for your doctor

One button prints a one-page German medication overview in BMP format — active substance, brand name, strength, form, the familiar morning-midday-evening-night boxes, unit, notes and reason — made from what is already in your account. A second sheet adds what a standard plan has no room for: things you buy yourself, as-needed medicines and how often you actually took them, the last seven days of doses, changes in the last ninety days and the questions you want to ask, each line marked with where it came from. Before you print, the app names any medicine still missing a strength, a form or an active substance. It is your own overview, not a doctor-issued plan, and it says so on every page.

Long medication lists print several scannable codes

One Data Matrix square can only hold so much. The BMP overview spreads a long plan across as many codes as it needs, each carrying the same plan reference and its own page number. The practice or pharmacy scans them one after another and gets the complete list. For printing, the complete barcode area starts on a fresh sheet so no code is divided by a page edge. A short list still prints a single code.

Verify the BMP code before you print

A “Verify BMP” button next to the print button checks the machine-readable code on your own device: the sheet is encoded, the Data Matrix is drawn, read back and compared character for character with your records. You get a plain passed or failed, the specification version, the size of the code, how many characters and medicines it carries, and an expandable list of exactly what the code contains — substances, strengths and dosing — so you can match it against the printed table. Nothing is sent anywhere.

Your adherence as a dial you can be proud of

Instead of a small line of text, how well you have kept to your medicines over the last 30 days is now a filling ring beside your sleep, appetite and energy dials. The percentage sits in the middle, the ring fills in green, amber or red, and under it one short encouraging line — “Excellent, keep it up” when you are at 90% or better, and never a telling-off when you are not. Tap it for the full adherence page.

Two new colour schemes: Vital light and Vital dark

Settings now offers a fitness-tracker look in light or dark. Cards float on a soft canvas with rounder corners and no hard outlines, icons are drawn with a lighter line, and every score — wellbeing, adherence, doses — is a thick rounded ring in its own bright colour. Vital dark keeps the same layout on a near-black canvas for the evening. Text sizes, tap targets and wording are unchanged, and the High contrast scheme is untouched.

A colour for every check-in dial

The row of dials under your greeting no longer looks like eight identical grey rings. Each question now owns a colour — sleep indigo, energy amber, mood rose, pain red — with the icon in a matching badge, so you find the one you want by colour instead of reading. A dial you have not answered yet sits hollow with a soft dashed ring. The adherence dial leads the row: it is bigger, its card is tinted green, amber or red to match your month, and a small flame shows how many complete days you are on. The thirty-day strip under it has taller rounded blocks with a gap between weeks and a ring around today.

Medication plan report (1-0-1-1)

Reports now includes the familiar one-page medication plan: active ingredient, brand name, strength, the dose at morning, noon, evening and bedtime, the short scheme such as 1-0-1-1, and a remarks column with your directions and what each medicine is for. Print it, save it as a PDF, download it as a spreadsheet or share it with your doctor or pharmacy. The PDF download of this report is now the German BMP-format sheet itself — the standard column layout with the Zusatzblatt page and the printed Data Matrix code, written to the official BMP 2.8 specification — so a practice or pharmacy can scan the plan straight into its software instead of typing it. The code needs your date of birth; without it the sheet prints without the code and says so.

A picture of the box, found for you

When you add or scan a medicine, the app looks for a photograph of the package by itself, using the strongest thing it knows: the PZN, the barcode, then the name and strength. Pictures come from trusted medicine registers first. If the match is certain the picture simply appears next to that medicine everywhere — the list, the pill box, today's doses and your reports. If it is not certain, the medicine's page asks plainly “Is this your medication package?” with a large Yes and a “No, show another”, and nothing is shown as certain until you say so. You can always photograph your own box instead; your own photographs stay private to your account. Changing a dose or a time of day never triggers a new search — only a change to the medicine itself, such as a new strength, name or package number.

Visit summary for the doctor

One printable page answering “what has changed since the last visit”, built for a five-minute appointment: new medicines, dose changes and stopped medicines, as-needed use compared with the period before, moderate and serious interactions with whether a doctor was already told, specialist and hospital visits, CT and MRI scans, blood tests, vaccinations and chemotherapy, averages and trends for sleep, appetite, energy and pain plus weight, adherence over 7 and 30 days, refills due in the next 30 days, and the patient’s own questions and notes. The period follows the last recorded visit, or can be set to 30 or 90 days; print or save as PDF. Doctor accounts reach it by tapping a person on the home screen.

One reporting hub for every role

“Reports” holds every report in one place and shows only those that suit your account — patient, family or professional carer, doctor, pharmacy or insurer: medicines and supply, adherence, visit summary, health timeline, refills and requests, payments and claims, and the interaction review. Each opens with your name and the date, and offers print, save as PDF, download CSV and share. An optional AI summary puts the figures into a few plain sentences, and every open, print, download and share is written to the activity log.

Health timeline

One chronological record of everything, newest first and grouped by day: medicines added, changed or stopped, every as-needed dose, specialist, dermatology, oncology, hospital and emergency visits, CT and MRI scans, blood tests, vaccinations, chemotherapy, doctor and caregiver notes, and the daily check-in for sleep, appetite, energy, pain and weight. Every entry is timestamped, searchable by medicine, visit, note or date, filterable by type, and exportable as a spreadsheet or a printed copy for the practice.

A home screen for every role

The first screen follows the account's existing role without granting any extra access: patients open on Today's health; family carers see the people they look after first, with seven-day adherence, what is still due today, coach alerts and medicine counts, and their own day underneath; professional carers get the same list ordered by what is still due; doctors get a read-only list ordered by weakest adherence that opens the printable report; pharmacy and insurer accounts open on a panel that leads to the existing refill and claims queues. One design language, shared widgets, no duplicated screens.

Print or email what the app does

This page has Print and “Email this” buttons. Choose only the user type you are viewing or all user types, then print a clean sheet or send the same list, in your language, to a practice, pharmacy or insurer with a short note.

Accurate adherence from the day you joined

Your adherence figure now only counts days since your record was created and since each medicine was added, so a brand-new account no longer shows a low score for days you were not using the app. Each card says how many days were actually counted and from when.

Every medicine name is a link

Medicine names on the dashboard, refills, pharmacy costs and the printable report open that medicine’s page. In the report’s interaction table the whole row is clickable and opens the interaction checker.

Your health details in one place

Date of birth, allergies, other conditions, blood type, height and weight, plus an emergency contact, all saved with the person under My settings → Me and my details. These are the questions a doctor, pharmacy or new caregiver always asks, ready to read out. They also appear on the printable inventory report and the adherence record, and travel with the summaries you email to your doctor.

Your adherence, under your name

The dashboard shows an adherence figure for the person signed in: the share of scheduled doses ticked off over the last 30 completed days, in green, amber or red, with the exact counts behind it.

Adherence summary for your doctor

Tap the adherence chip under your name to open the full record: 7-day and 30-day figures, a breakdown per medicine, and a “since you started recording” figure so a new account is not judged on days before you began ticking doses off. One button emails the 7- and 30-day summary to a saved doctor, with an optional note.

Choose who receives it

Both the adherence summary and the inventory report let you pick the recipient before sending: yourself, or any doctor, pharmacy or contact saved under My settings. Every e-mail names the patient in the subject and at the top, followed by their phone, e-mail, address and health details, so the practice can file it against the right person.

Photograph a German prescription

“Photograph a prescription” on the Medicines page reads the slip itself — a pink Kassenrezept (Muster 16), a Privatrezept, a BtM-Rezept or an eRezept printout — pulling out each medicine, strength, form and any printed dosage. Handwritten or blurred lines are flagged for you to check, and nothing is saved until you confirm.

Pick a checked address instead of typing it

Type the street and choose the right address from the list — street, house number, postcode and town are filled in together, so they always match. The postcode box works the same way: enter the postcode or the town and pick the place. A line underneath says whether the address was found and confirmed, needs a look, or could not be checked, and a tidier version can be taken over with one tap. This works for your own address, your doctor, your pharmacy, care company branches and practice registration.

Your main doctor is in the send list, and can answer in one tap

The “Send to” list now includes the doctor and pharmacy saved in My settings, marked as your main contact and shown first, so the practice you entered in your settings is no longer missing. A contact saved in both places appears once. The interaction alert e-mail now carries two large buttons — “I received this” and “I have reviewed this” — so your doctor can answer with one tap, without signing in. The answer appears in your interaction history, and each link works once and expires after seven days.

Your main doctor, and the doctor directory

Mark one of your doctors as your main doctor in Settings and the app always writes to that one: refill requests, plans and reports, and the urgent notice when a serious interaction turns up. When you add a doctor you can search a directory of practices the service already knows and pick one, so the address, telephone and e-mail fill themselves in — or type it all yourself if your practice is not listed.

Your doctor sees your record only if you say so

A new sharing card in your settings lets you give your doctor access with their professional e-mail address, and take it away again with one button. Only doctors whose licence has been checked can be added. A practice can also ask you first: the request shows their name, you choose which record it is for, and it expires by itself after two weeks. While sharing is on, the practice can read your medicines, appointments and daily check-ins and nothing else — they cannot change anything, and every time they open your record it is logged. Stopping sharing takes effect instantly.

Choose the doctor from your own list

Wherever the app sends something out — an interaction warning, an adherence summary, a report — the “Send to” list now shows the same thing: every doctor, pharmacy and insurer saved under My settings → Doctor and pharmacy, grouped by kind, plus your own address. Contacts without an e-mail address are shown greyed out with the reason, and an “Add or look up a doctor” button searches for a practice and saves it without leaving the page. Ticking “my doctor has been told” is now kept with your account rather than on one device, so an interaction you silenced on the computer is also quiet on the phone, and the home screen keeps the details open by default.

Prescriber picked from your own doctors

Adding or editing a medicine now offers every doctor saved on your account, each with their specialty and the primary care doctor marked. A medicine with no prescriber yet gets your primary care doctor filled in automatically; the pharmacy field does the same with your primary pharmacy, and “Other” still lets you type any name.

Find your German health insurer

My settings → Doctor and pharmacy now has a Health insurers card. Search the built-in list of German statutory (gesetzliche) and private insurers by name, short name or town — TK, AOK, Debeka and many more — and one tap fills in the name, address and website. Mark one as primary and it is used on your insurance claims.

A doctor's note on each medicine

Alongside what the medicine is for, the exact directions and the photo of the tablet, every medicine now has a doctor's note: why it was prescribed, how long to keep taking it and what to watch for. Add it when you create or edit the medicine; it appears at the top of that medicine's page so you never have to remember the conversation.

Check the e-mail before it goes

The send button now opens a review window: the patient it is about, the 7- and 30-day figures that will be sent, the “Send to” choice and the note, all changeable there. Nothing leaves until you press Send now.

Every doctor, with their specialty

Save your primary care doctor (Hausarzt in Germany) alongside your dermatologist, oncologist and any other specialist, each with the specialty shown under the name. The primary contact still receives your refill requests.

Your doctor's order, always to hand

One directions field per medicine — photograph the printed plan or Medikationsplan and the app reads the wording and the morning/midday/evening/night pattern for you to confirm.

Ollie's hello follows the clock

When you sign in, Ollie names what is late first and what is still ahead by its time of day — “Still to take this evening: 5”. If nothing is late, he starts with praise: “Good job so far — your next doses are this evening.” Safety warnings you have already sent to your doctor are shown separately as a green line, so they are visibly done instead of still counted against you.

Start here is short again — Ollie answers the rest

The help page no longer opens as one long list of everything. It now begins with Ollie: a box where you type any question, four questions people often ask, and then about seven short steps for your kind of account — patient, care giver or doctor — each with a link to the screen it describes. Asking a question from the help page opens Ollie with that question already sent. The full register of everything the app can do is still there, folded away under one button at the bottom.

Answers that take you straight to the page

Ask your Health Guide a question and, when the answer ends in something you do somewhere in the app — reordering, filling the pill box, reading a safety warning, checking a visit — one or two large buttons appear under Ollie's words, above the line “Open the page I mean”. One tap and you are there, with no hunting through the menu.

Meet Ollie, the face of the app

Ollie is now a clean cut-out with no box behind him, and he drifts gently and gives a small wave when he appears (still, if your device asks for reduced motion). He also greets visitors once a day on the public home page, where the button opens the live demo. Once a day, when you open your home screen, Ollie pops up to say hello and explain in one sentence what the Health Guide is for; one tap opens it, another sends him away until tomorrow. Your Health Guide now has a friendly owl called Ollie. He welcomes you on the empty screen and sits beside every answer, so it is always clear which message came from the app and which one you wrote. The answers themselves are unchanged. In the live demo Ollie now gives a short guided tour: he says clearly that everything is sample data and offers three big buttons — medicine cabinet, weekly pill box and safety checks. His hello is now personal: your name, the time of day and a short tappable list of what today needs — or a friendly “all done” when nothing is waiting. The pop-up is a soft see-through pane of colour instead of a white box. Ollie is now the face of the whole app, not only the guide: his owl head is the app icon and the mark in the top bar, the menu entry is simply called “Ollie”, and he now has a small set of poses — waving, pointing, cheering, holding a magnifier, a clipboard, a warning sign or yawning at bedtime — used on empty screens so a blank page always tells you what to do next. The public home page has a “Meet Ollie” panel introducing him.

The coach speaks up on its own

Beside the chat coach, your overview now shows Coach suggestions: short cards raised automatically from your own records when a medicine is added, changed or stopped, when as-needed use is climbing, when a refill is due, when an interaction turns up, when a specialist visit, CT or MRI scan or chemotherapy session is recorded, when sleep, appetite or energy get worse, when doses are missed, or when an appointment is coming up. Every card says in plain words why it appeared and what is behind it, and you can dismiss it, snooze it for a week, or act on it. A one-tap daily check-in records sleep, appetite and energy, visits and scans are kept in the same place, and a Doctor summary button turns the open cards into a short note you can read out, print or email. The coach never diagnoses and never changes a medicine.

Medication Coach

A built-in coach on the Coach page answers questions about your own cabinet — when to reorder, how to plan the weekly box, what a flagged interaction means, and what to ask at the next appointment. It reads your medicines and supply numbers, never diagnoses and never changes a dose. Conversations are now saved: each question opens its own conversation with its own web address, the list on the left restores earlier ones after a reload, and you can delete any conversation you no longer need. The coach is now proactive too: the card at the top of Today writes up to three short lines about what deserves attention — a reorder due soon, supply running low, an interaction flag to raise with your doctor, or a habit that keeps adherence up. It compares your last seven days with the last thirty, so it can say when adherence is slipping or improving and name the medicines missed most often. Keyboard users can also press Tab on any page for a “Skip to main content” button.

A screen that sets your phone up

“Mobile app” shows what you are holding — browser, iPhone or Android, and which build is loaded — switches lock-screen dose reminders on with one button, and explains the test build and the real build side by side, with the commands to install the app ready to copy.

A site map of every page

One screen lists everywhere you can go, grouped like the menu: doses, pill box, medicines, safety, appointments, reports and your account. Large coloured buttons, only the pages that apply to your account, and nothing technical.

The app is now called My Medicine Cabinet

The name has changed from My Medication Cabinet to My Medicine Cabinet, with the line “The Digital Care Companion Between Visits” beside the logo on every screen. Nothing about your medicines, doses, refills or history has changed — only the name and the promise behind it: this is an AI-powered digital care platform that helps your doctor look after you between appointments, not a reminder app.

Care giver settings show only what applies to them

A professional care giver no longer sees "My pill box" or "Set up your medicines" on their own Settings page. Both belong to a patient account; carers pack and check the boxes of the people they look after from those people\u2019s own screens. Their settings now cover only their own account: contact details, language, text size, colour theme, sign-in methods and account type.

Choose who you are before you create the account

The Create account screen now starts with one question: who is this account for? Six large choices — I take my own medicine, I help a family member, I work for a care company, I am a doctor, I work at a pharmacy, I work for a health insurer — and the answer decides which guided setup you land in, so a patient is never asked about companies and a carer is never asked about their own tablets. Professional choices still say plainly that our team checks them before they are switched on. Ollie now greets you on the sign-in screen too: rest the pointer on him and he introduces himself in one sentence. Signing out now empties everything on the device — cached pages, your session and anything stored for the account — and takes you back to the public home page with a fresh start; only your language, colour and text size stay.

Everything is sorted into eight areas

This page no longer runs as one long list. Every point is filed under eight plain areas — Every day, Supply and refills, Safety, Appointments and travel, Reports and records, Care team, Health Guide, and Your account and setup. Each area says in one line what belongs in it and how many points it holds, and on a telephone the areas stay folded away until you open one, so the page begins short. The Start here guide is sorted the same way. Nothing was reworded or removed.

Address lookup keeps working when the map service does not

The address search no longer stops when the main map service is busy, over its daily limit or simply unreachable. The app notices straight away, quietly switches to the open street map service and carries on offering you addresses to pick from, so a form is never blocked. It leaves the main service alone for a short while and tries it again by itself later — you see nothing but a working list of addresses.

Every medicine, every time something changes

The interaction check is not a button and not a setting: it always reads the complete medicine list on the account — daily, as-needed and phased courses alike — and it re-runs on its own whenever a medicine is added, edited, scanned from a pack or plan, changed after an appointment, deleted or stopped, whenever a dose amount or time of day moves, and whenever a treatment course is started, edited, paused or removed. Stopped medicines drop out; answers you have already given are kept.

Privacy, consent and your data copy

A new Privacy and consent page lists what is needed to use the app — health data handling, terms and privacy notice — and, separately, the optional choices: e-mail and text reminders, sharing with a family carer, a professional carer, your doctor or pharmacy, and AI help with wording. Nothing optional is on until you switch it on, every answer is dated and kept as history, and switching something off stops the use without erasing the record. The same page downloads a plain-language summary or a complete data file of everything held about you, and lets you ask to deactivate your account or have it deleted, with a confirmation word and the option to withdraw the request. Doctor and care-provider accounts are now requested from My settings → Account and approved by an administrator; a patient account you set yourself. Choosing one during guided setup files the request for you and shows a status panel with the day it was sent and where it stands — waiting, approved, not approved or withdrawn.

The same blue header everywhere, plus cookie choices

The logo area now carries the same blue band on phone, computer and every public page, so the app looks the same wherever it is opened. A cookie bar appears on the first visit: in Europe nothing optional is set until you agree (accept all, necessary only, or choose usage cookies yourself), and in the United States the optional cookies can be switched off in one press — we never sell or share personal information. Necessary cookies for sign-in, security and language stay on. Your choice is remembered and can be changed any time from “Cookie settings” in the footer.

Easier to read, easier to tap

The menu is grouped into four short sections — Every day, Care, Records and Account — instead of one long list, labels are larger and never cut off, and every menu row and icon button is at least 44 pixels tall, the size of a fingertip. The side menu uses the true height of the phone screen so the last item stays reachable.

AI only where it helps — and never for the maths

Supply, run-out dates, reorder timing, reminders, the pill-box schedule and the interaction check are ordinary calculations: exact, instant and free of AI cost. AI is used only for language — summaries, plain explanations, translation, the coach, doctor reports, appointment preparation — and for reading text off a photo of a pack or plan. Answers are stored and reused, and administrators see the number of AI calls, how many came from the store, the tokens used and the estimated cost.

Creams and sprays in your weekly plan

Creams, ointments, sprays, drops and patches cannot go into a plastic pill box, so the Weekly pill box page gives them their own section, “Creams, sprays and other applications”, with seven days per time of day and the amount in its own unit — 1 g, 2 puffs, 3 drops — that you tick off as you use it. Medicines on a treatment course now show what the plan asks for on each date, with a dash on rest days, and week totals and stock deductions follow those day-by-day amounts.

Creams, sprays and drops counted in grams, not tablets

A medicine can now be counted the way it really comes: grams of cream or ointment, millilitres of lotion, puffs of a spray, drops or patches. Say how much is in one full tube, bottle or canister and how much you use each time — a fingertip unit of cream is about 0.5 g, and buttons fill that in for you. Stock, days left, run-out and reorder dates are then shown as "38 g (0.6 tube)" instead of a tablet count, and at pick-up you can simply add one, two or three whole tubes. Logging a stock change uses the same unit, with a switch to enter whole packs instead. When you edit a medicine you can also correct the exact amount on hand — 75 tablets, 40 g of a tube — and saving records a precise recount. The same exact-count box also appears on the medicine's Supply card. Refill requests ask for creams and sprays in millilitres or grams, never in pill counts.

Spelling help for medical words

Every notes box now checks spelling in your own language and quietly offers medical words while you type: press three letters of a word such as "psoriasis" or "Fingerspitzeneinheit" and the correct spelling appears underneath with a plain-language meaning. Tap it to insert it.

Both patient plans are free

The separate Free plan is gone: Basic and Plus are now both free for patients — medicines, pill box, reminders, interaction warnings, reports, scanning, pharmacy costs and claims at no cost. The page /for-professionals explains what practices, pharmacies and insurers get and how each of those is priced.

What it is for, with a picture of the pill

Each medicine carries a plain description of what it is for and a photo of the actual tablet. Take the picture with your phone when you add or edit the medicine; it appears on the medicine page so the right pill is easy to recognise.

Photograph your medicine plan

Take a picture of the printed plan from your doctor — including the German Medikationsplan — and the app reads every medicine on it at once: name, strength, the doctor’s wording and the morning/midday/evening/night tablet counts. You review and correct the list, medicines you already have are updated rather than duplicated, and nothing is saved until you confirm.

Staged treatment courses

Paste or photograph a phased plan — "twice daily for 14 days, then once daily for 14 days, then every two days for 4 weeks, then twice weekly until the follow-up" — and the app turns it into dated steps, shows today's step on the medicine, and puts the right doses on the right days. Creams and ointments are tracked as applications, with no pill counting. You can edit a saved course at any time, and its doses follow through your day, week and month views until the course has run.

A friendlier welcome and tidier settings

The dashboard now greets you by name with the time of day — "Welcome, Anna — good afternoon". My settings is grouped into five plain tabs: me and my details, doctor and pharmacy, reminders and times, look and feel, account and sign-in — no more endless scrolling.

Automatic sign out after 15 quiet minutes
