Medisafe alternative
A Medisafe alternative for your supplements
Updated 29 September 2026
Medisafe is only free in the United States. Everywhere else it has been subscription-only since 1 January 2026: a 14-day trial, then $4.99 a month or $39.99 a year. If you use it for medication, MyTherapy is free and does the same job. If you use it for supplements, Supli reminds you at dose time and counts each bottle in its own unit.
What changed with Medisafe
On 1 January 2026 Medisafe became a paid app for everyone outside the United States. New and existing users get a 14-day trial, and then need a monthly or yearly subscription to keep using it. In the US it stays free to download and use, with Premium as an option.
It did not happen overnight. From late 2024 the free version already allowed only two medications, according to user reviews on Google Play from December 2024.
Premium costs $4.99 a month or $39.99 a year, according to Medisafe’s help center. In euros, the Spanish App Store lists several price points, from €2.99 to €5.99 a month and from €29.99 to €44.99 a year; Google Play shows yours before you pay.
When Medisafe is still the right one
If you take prescribed medication, especially several, Medisafe is built for that: Medfriends who get alerted if you miss a dose, dependents, health trackers, an Apple Watch app. It counts pills and reminds you to refill. Paying for it may be worth it, and Supli does not try to replace it.
It also takes vitamins and supplements, as one more medication. Its own help center says there are limits there, such as products with several components or combined strengths.
