Doses, records, refills
Reminders tell you when a dose is due. Supply tracking helps you see what may need replenishing next. Meds Ahead brings both into the same routine.
Add medication details manually or scan a label on your iPhone, then review the result before saving. Your schedules, dose logs, and inventory changes give the forecast its context.

Supply forecasts depend on the schedules, counts, and doses you record. They do not determine prescription refill eligibility or recommend changes to medication.
Behind the app
I built Meds Ahead because my family needed help coordinating medications and refills. Knowing what was due was only part of it. We also needed to know what was running low.

Supply comes from recorded inventory changes and taken doses. Refills, corrections, and dose logs give a count its history, so an estimate has something concrete behind it.
Dose logging uses a shared schedule engine to identify the scheduled dose across screens and avoid counting the same dose twice.
Label text and supported barcodes are recognized on the device. You review the extracted details before saving a medication. Recognition is a starting point for entry, not a substitute for checking the label.
Medication records are stored locally. There are no ads or third-party analytics, and scanned images are not retained by the app. Your records can be included in your own device and iCloud backups.
Reminders are scheduled on the phone, with detailed notification text off by default.
On the App Store
Start with a medication, check its schedule and count, and build a record you can keep up with.
An organization tool, not medical advice. Follow your prescription label and clinician’s instructions.
