Terms of Use
Last updated: June 1, 2026
Important. PillBox is a supportive tool for self-tracking of medication intake. The App is not a medical device, does not make diagnoses, does not prescribe treatment, and does not replace consultation with a doctor. You make all decisions about taking medications yourself and at your own responsibility.
1. General
1.1. These Terms of Use (the "Terms") govern the relationship between PillBox (the "Developer") and the individual using the PillBox mobile application (the "App", "Service", "User").
1.2. By downloading, installing or using the App, the User confirms that they have read these Terms, agree to them and undertake to comply with them. If the User does not agree with any provisions, they must stop using the App.

- recognition of an intake schedule from a photo or PDF of a prescription using artificial intelligence;
- creation of a personal intake calendar split into slots (morning/day/evening/night);
- marking doses as taken and calculating an adherence metric;
- custom conditional intake rules (toggles): including/excluding medications depending on circumstances — workout, travel, illness, etc.;
- reminders, statistics, intake history, data export;
- syncing data across the devices of a single account.
2.3. The Developer may unilaterally modify, expand or reduce the functionality of the App, and temporarily or permanently discontinue individual features.
3. Medical disclaimer
PillBox is NOT a medical device within the meaning of medical-device legislation, is not registered as such, and is not intended for medical use.
3.1. The App does not provide medical advice, does not make diagnoses, does not prescribe or cancel treatment, does not assess drug compatibility, and does not check dosages for safety.

3.3. The User undertakes to:
- consult a doctor before starting any therapy;
- independently verify the correctness of the intake schedule recognized by the App after uploading a prescription;

4. AI prescription recognition
4.1. The App uses machine learning and large language models to extract data from images of prescriptions and orders. This process is probabilistic and does not guarantee 100% accuracy.
4.2. After automatic recognition, the User must manually verify and confirm each parameter of the schedule (medication name, dosage, frequency, time, course length, special conditions). Without such confirmation, the schedule is not considered active.
