IPB

IPB is a medication reminder app that uses familiar voices to prompt people to take their pills, helping families and caregivers support loved ones in a more personal way. The tool lets you record or select a trusted voice—such as a family member, friend or another favorite person—to deliver reminders that feel friendlier than generic alarms. When a scheduled dose is missed, IPB sends a real-time notification so a caregiver can respond quickly and address the missed dose, helping users stay on track with prescriptions and maintain better health.
