Capsy rings like an alarm clock and opens a big, clear screen: three buttons, no confusion. Made for elderly parents and the people who look after them.
The helper sets everything up once. After that, the elderly person only has to tap a coloured button.
Medicine name, dose, times and length of treatment. Setup is protected by a 4-digit code.
Even when the phone is locked or on silent, the big screen opens with the person's name, the medicine and the dose.
Green: taken. Yellow: remind me in 10 minutes or in an hour. Red: not taken. That's it.
Capsy does a few things and does them well, with large text and colours that never change.
It rings and vibrates until someone answers, and opens full screen even while the phone is in use.
Each with their own colour: on today's screen, in the history and in the alerts you instantly see whose medicine it is.
Counts the tablets left and warns you when a pack is about to run out.
What was taken and what wasn't, with the option to correct it. Handy at the doctor's too.
Forever, for a number of days or until a date: at the end the reminders stop by themselves.
Chosen at first start and changeable at any time.
When a dose is not taken, or nobody answers within 30 minutes, Capsy alerts the family. Every evening it can email a summary.
Instant alert to children and relatives.
If nobody has tapped a button after 30 minutes.
Doses taken and missed, stock left.
Medicines and history stay on the phone. Alerts carry only what is needed.
For carers of someone who speaks another language, or for families spread across Europe.
Capsy is in testing: today it is free for those who test it with us. Plan prices and contents are still being defined.
Everything needed by whoever takes medicines at home.
For those who look after their parents from afar.
The pharmacy gives Capsy Family to its customers with a code. Write to us to find out more.
Android phones from version 8 onwards. An iPhone version is planned.
No: reminders, history and stock work offline. The internet is only needed for family alerts, the evening report and updates.
Nobody: it stays on the phone. Alerts and the report go only to the addresses you choose.
No. Capsy is not a medical device and gives no advice: it reminds you of the times you enter, following your doctor's or pharmacist's instructions.
We are looking for families to test it before the Google Play launch. Write to us and we'll send you the link to install it.
