The app was created mostly to help the older citizens who statistically take more medication and supplements, at least 8 different medications in average, which are a lot of to remember.

Healthy Reminder works in a simple way. If you forget to take your medication or supplements, the emergency contacts that you set up through the app will get an email or a text message. Usually the contacts are the care takers and family members. The app will simple enable the user to put in the contact info in under one minute. Then the app will do the magic and the user will never skip taking the needed medication or supplements.

Reasons for Healthy Reminder App

Healthy Reminder is an app that was created based on several important, and little worrying, facts for the US health care system.

- Over 12 % of the population is 65 and older. The average senior citizen takes 8 different medications as well as herbal supplements. That is a lot to remember. The built in reminders will remind the user to take their medication/supplements throughout the day. If the user is away from there phone and forget to take there medication there emergency contact will be alerted through a text message and an email.

- A study looked at preventable ADEs in Medicare enrollees aged 65 and older and found an annual cost of $887 million for treating medication errors (users forgetting to take their medication)

-An estimated 125,000 lives could be saved annually with better compliance (based on heart disease only: Smith, 1989).
