TrackMe+ vs Medisafe: Which Medication Tracker Is Right for You?
If you’re looking for a medication tracking app, Medisafe has probably come up in your search. It’s been around for over a decade, has hundreds of thousands of reviews, and it’s earned a solid reputation. But the app went through some significant changes in early 2026, and the landscape looks different than it used to.
We built TrackMe+ to solve problems that existing medication trackers don’t address. This post is a straightforward, honest comparison of both apps so you can decide which one fits your needs.
The Big Picture
Medisafe started as a free medication reminder app and has grown into a platform that now serves both consumers and pharmaceutical companies. In January 2026, Medisafe moved to a freemium model that limits free users to two medications.
TrackMe+ takes a different approach. It’s built for people who want to track their entire health picture in one place, not just pill reminders. That means medications, lab results, blood pressure, weight, supplies, and even health-related costs, all in a single app.
Feature Comparison
Medication Tracking
Both apps handle the basics well. You can set reminders, track doses, and manage multiple medications. Medisafe supports complex schedules (up to 12 times per day) and offers a drug interaction checker, which is genuinely useful.
TrackMe+ also supports flexible scheduling, multiple medication types (pills, powders, injections, and more), and includes a dose calculator on mobile for working out dosage amounts.
Health Tracking Beyond Medications
This is where the two apps start to diverge significantly.
Medisafe tracks blood glucose, blood pressure, weight, pulse, and temperature. That’s a decent list for a medication app.
TrackMe+ tracks blood pressure, weight, and lab results with full history and trend tracking. The lab results feature is particularly unique. You can log lab work over time and watch how your numbers change, which is valuable if you’re managing a chronic condition, monitoring supplement protocols, or just staying on top of your health. On mobile, an AI scanning feature can read your lab reports and pull the data in automatically.
Budget and Supply Tracking
Medisafe doesn’t track medication costs or supply levels. This is something many people don’t think about until they’re juggling multiple prescriptions and wondering where the money is going.
TrackMe+ includes full budget tracking for health-related expenses. You can log purchases, track spending by vendor, and even scan receipts on mobile. There’s also supply management with low-stock alerts, so you know when it’s time to reorder before you run out.
No other major medication tracker offers these features.
Platform Support
Medisafe is available on iOS and Android, with an Apple Watch app and a limited web view for reports. There’s no Mac app, and the desktop experience is read-only. You can’t add or manage medications from a computer.
TrackMe+ is available on iPhone, Mac, Apple Watch, and web. The web app is fully functional, not just a viewer. If you spend time at a desk, being able to manage everything from your computer is a real advantage.
One area where Medisafe has the edge: Android support. TrackMe+ is currently Apple ecosystem and web only.
Caregiver and Family Features
Both apps support managing medications for family members. Medisafe offers “Medfriends,” which sends alerts to family members when a dose is missed. TrackMe+ offers a Family plan that covers up to four members.
If you’re a caregiver managing medications for a parent, spouse, or child, both apps can help. The difference is that TrackMe+ lets you track labs, blood pressure, weight, and health costs for those family members too, not just their medications.
Pricing
This is where things have shifted in 2026.
Medisafe Free: Limited to 2 medications, includes ads, limited caregiver features.
Medisafe Premium: $4.99/month or $39.99/year on iOS. Unlocks unlimited medications, ad-free experience, unlimited family profiles, and full health measurement tracking.
TrackMe+ Free: Tracks up to 3 medications, 10 lab results per year, basic scheduling. Available on iPhone, Mac, and web. No ads.
TrackMe+ Standard: $6.99/month. Unlimited medications, 50 lab results per year, smart scheduling, budget and spending tracking, supply and inventory management, priority support. Includes a 14-day free trial.
TrackMe+ Premium: $14.99/month. Everything in Standard plus unlimited lab results, AI scanning for labs and receipts, PDF export and reports, dose calculator, and early access to new features.
TrackMe+ Family: $19.99/month for up to 4 members.
At similar price points, TrackMe+ includes features (budget tracking, lab management, supply tracking, AI scanning) that Medisafe doesn’t offer at any tier.
What Users Are Saying
Medisafe has over 45,000 iOS reviews and 190,000 Android reviews with a 4.5-star average. That’s a strong track record. The app is well-regarded by pharmacists and healthcare providers.
However, the January 2026 pricing change generated significant frustration. Many users who relied on the app for years suddenly found their free access limited to two medications. Online forums and review sites show a wave of users looking for alternatives.
TrackMe+ is newer and still building its user base. The advantage of coming in fresh is that the app was designed from the start to handle the full health tracking picture, not just reminders bolted onto a decade-old architecture.
The Bottom Line
Choose Medisafe if you primarily need medication reminders with a drug interaction checker, you’re on Android, or you want an app with a long track record and large community.
Choose TrackMe+ if you want to track more than just medications (labs, BP, weight, costs, supplies), you want a fully functional web and Mac experience, you prefer an ad-free experience on the free tier, or you’re managing health for your whole family.
Both are solid apps. The question is whether you need a pill reminder or a comprehensive health tracker. If you just need to remember your meds, Medisafe does that well. If you want one app that handles your entire health management workflow, that’s what TrackMe+ was built for.
