I help manage my mom's medications from two hours away. Pocket Med List is the first app where I can actually see that she took her morning doses — it has taken so much worry off my shoulders, and her doctor finally gets an accurate list at every visit.

Why we built it

Most medication apps are built by developers. This one was built by a pharmacist.

Clinical judgment, built inReal drug strengths, real dosing schedules, and safeguards a pharmacist would insist on at the counter.
A mission-driven appPocket Med List is brought to you by Chalice Health, and it's free to download because everyone deserves safe medication tools — not just people who can pay.
Your data isn't for saleWe don't sell your health information. The app exists to help you take your medicine safely — that's the whole point.

“Every day at the hospital, we meet patients who can't tell us the names or strengths of the medications they take at home. Without that list, reconciling their medications — the very first step of safe care — becomes guesswork. Pocket Med List puts an accurate, up-to-date list in every patient's pocket, so any doctor, nurse, or pharmacist can get their care right from the very first question.”

Everything in one place

One app for every dose, refill, and reminder

From once-daily tablets to weekly injections to “every other day” schedules — Pocket Med List handles real prescriptions the way they're actually written.

Smart dose reminders

Daily, weekly, specific days, or every-few-days schedules — with missed-dose alerts that get you back on track.

Refill & supply forecasting

The app counts down your supply and tells you the exact date you'll run out — before you're staring at an empty bottle.

Streaks that build the habit

A daily streak and progress ring turn “remembering to take your meds” into a habit that actually sticks.

Real medication forms

Tablets, insulin pens, inhalers, drops, patches, creams — each tracked the way it's really measured, in units, puffs, or mL.

Medical ID for emergencies

A one-page summary of your medications, allergies, and emergency contact — ready to show an ER, paramedic, or new doctor.

An accurate list at every visit

Walk into every appointment with your complete, up-to-date medication list — and help your providers make safer decisions.

Inside the app

Designed to feel effortless — every single screen

Big type, calm colors, one-tap actions. Made for real people managing real medications, not power users.

💡 Why streaks matter: people who track medications daily are far more likely to take every dose on schedule. Even a short streak makes the habit stick.

A pharmacist's guardrails

The app that stops mistakes before they happen

Reminders are easy. What sets Pocket Med List apart are the clinical safety checks working quietly in the background — the kind of catches a good pharmacist makes every day.

High-alert protection

Weekly meds stay weekly

Some medications, like methotrexate, are dangerous if taken daily by mistake. The app flags them, defaults to the safe schedule, and steps in if you try to take a second dose too soon.

Allergy & duplicate checks

A double-check before you add

Record your allergies once. If a new medication may match one — or duplicates something you already take — the app asks you to double-check before saving.

Real strengths only

No impossible doses

For known medications, the strength field locks to real, marketed strengths — so a typo can't turn 10 mg into 100 mg on your list.

No catch, no paywall

Everything the paid apps charge for. Free.

Most medication apps lock reminders, caregiver sharing, or reports behind a monthly subscription. Pocket Med List doesn't.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is Pocket Med List really free?
Yes — today the app is completely free to download and use, with every feature included and no ads. As Chalice Health grows Pocket Med List, optional services or sponsorships may be introduced in the future, but our goal will always be to keep core medication tools accessible to everyone.
Who is it for?
Anyone who takes medications regularly — and anyone who helps someone else take theirs. It's especially loved by people managing multiple prescriptions and by adult children caring for a parent's medications.
Is my health information private?
Privacy is a core design principle. We don't sell your health information, and the app is designed so your medication data stays yours. Only the care team members you personally invite can see your medications — and you can pause or remove their access at any time. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Does it replace advice from my pharmacist or doctor?
No. Pocket Med List helps you organize and remember your medications, and its safety prompts encourage you to double-check with your pharmacist or prescriber — it never replaces their professional advice.
Can caregivers manage medications for someone else?
Yes. The person who owns the list invites you, chooses View Only or Can Edit access, and you can switch between your own medications and theirs inside the app. Every change is logged with your name.
What devices does it work on?
Pocket Med List is available for iPhone on the App Store and for Android on Google Play.
How do I get help or delete my account?
Email us anytime at support@pocketmedlist.com. You can delete your account and data from inside the app (Profile → Delete My Account) or via our account deletion page.
