It counts your pills only, as far as im aware. I keep looking for other options but cant find any. THAT BEING SAID. IT IS. absolutely amazing. Such a great idea! I count wrong 3 times in a row -so i needed this. i just check that every pill has a green dot-&no extra green dots anywhere-and tada. BUT- i hope someday we could also kind of manage meds in the app too. attaching notes to the photo. that say..heres many examples for MY needs/reasoning- “ this many left, on this day, at this time, i took 1 already before photo, or took 1 after photo” “ 5 left of this BRAND, ( photo attached) but 4 left of the other brand- so i really have 9 altogether.” " this is a photo of the ones in my travel bag ONLY “ even just being able to write somewhere what the medication in the photo would be useful… maybe an x (or doodle) you can place- to cross one out when u take it-after the photo- so you don’t need to do a whole dump count again. Bet this thing could count a bunch of other stuff too though! Nuts,bolts,beads,marbles etc Ppl could use it for a lot with a notes ability! Idk i have serious issues with my meds-remembering to take them, remembering if i already took them, wandering if i took one with me somewhere and lost it. Wandering if i took more then i was meant to.. im sure others do also. if we could keep some track of it all right here, instead of 5 apps,cuz this is the only one i find the most useful of all my med managing apps, and regularly NEED/want to use. Anyways. This idea was genius yet simple!? THANKS! ITS GREAT!

After multiple attempts, I couldn’t get it to give me an accurate count of my pills. The quantity I was trying to get it to count was 180, which I verified twice with a standard pharmtech by-fives count (I’m a former pharmtech). The app always overcounted: 184, 187, 188, never the same twice in a row. Even after following the tip of completely separating all the pills, the image still showed it interpreting stacked or overlapping pills where there were none. I spent more time spreading out the pills than it took for me to manually count them twice. Don’t rely on this app to count a large number of pills.

This app works better than any other app by far.
