Early Findings
PillPack
Amazon acquired PillPack for
$753 million
back in May 2019. The company delivers most of the medications consumers can get from their local drugstore packaged in convenient white packets so people will remember to take them, along with
automatic refills
and
reminders
.
PillPack's medication
reminder app
is available on iPhone, Android, and the Apple Watch. The medication reminder is highly intuitive in the sense that it automatically scans the user’s prescription medications and
imports them
into the app without the user having to do anything. Apart from setting up reminders for users to take their pills, it also automatically alerts the user when the pills need a refill.
The app also allows users to
create custom reminders
based on context-specific conditions such as their current location and
reschedule alerts
whenever they choose. T
he app currently has over
195 thousand
reviews on the Google Play Store and
34 thousand
reviews on the Apple App Store.
