Fully dedicated to birth control efficiency iPilule is here to help every women with an iPhone keep track of their birth control pills schedule. Using the iPhone powerful PUSH notification feature, iPilule sends a daily reminder to the app user at the time she chose - the application automatically calculates when to stop and when to reactivate notifications based on the day the person started her pill tablet.
Notifications show up unobtrusively as a regular text-message avoiding the embarassment of a noisy, hard-to-explain alarm that would ring in the middle of the pm at the office for instance... It also comes in 7 fully translated versions including English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish.
Once iPilule is installed on the user's iPhone you need to be connected to the Internet through EDGE, 3G or WiFi to receive the notifications. Plus, you need to enable the PUSH system into the phone's settings : go to Settings > Notifications and turn them to the ON position.
Eventually here's a little warning we like to tell our users ! "So, who's in charge here ? Right. You are ! Bear in mind that by no means could the iPilule developpers be held reponsable in case you'd skip a pill and ended up unwantedly pregnant. We're just a piece of software, remember."
Pricing and Availability: iPilule 1.0 is only $0.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Lifestyle category.
