Mobile app that reminds you when to take your prescriptions via SMS notifications.

Inspiration

I'm just here to help remind people to take their prescriptions.

What it does

Reminds people to take their prescriptions as ordered by their doctor.

How I built it

With Android, Firebase, Node.js, Twilio API, Mobile Vision API.

Challenges I ran into

The greatest challenge... their are no good optical character recognition (OCR) systems available for android... for now. Couldn't implement all the features I wanted. Solo programming is a bit boring and no fun. My files were to big to upload as a zip.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I almost developed a full working app in 24 hours.

What I learned

I learned how to integrate different tools together to build software.

What's next for Prescription Reminder

I'll be continuing development on the mobile app. I'll have more time now to find a OCR that I can integrate into the mobile app. That will make it easier for people who don't want to manually put in all the prescription information by thumbs.
