"Did dad already give the 3pm Concerta?" — solved.

Adult pill reminder apps assume one person, one med. Kid meds are different — mom gives the morning dose, the school nurse gives the noon dose, dad picks up the afternoon, the sitter handles evening. FamCove logs every dose with who-gave-it, syncs across both parents instantly, and prints the school authorization form + emergency action plan in one tap.

Built for the families who actually need it

🧠

ADHD families

Adderall XR at 7am at home, methylphenidate IR at noon by the school nurse, evening dose by whichever parent is on duty. FamCove tracks the schedule, logs each administration, surfaces "missed" before it cascades.

🫁

Asthma kids

Daily controller (Flovent, Singulair) + rescue inhaler (albuterol) + when to step up to the nebulizer + when to call the doctor. Action plan PDF posts on the fridge in one tap.

⚠️

Severe allergy households

EpiPen Jr instructions printed for every sitter, every birthday party drop-off, every grandparent visit. FARE-style action plan with allergens, symptoms, and emergency contacts — generated, not retyped.

🩸

Type 1 diabetes

Insulin doses, glucose checks, Glucagon for emergencies. Multi-caregiver coordination is life-and-death — you need both parents and the school nurse on the same page, in real time.

5 minutes to set up. Forever to never wonder if a dose was given.

  1. Add a medication — name, category (ADHD / asthma / allergy / etc.), dose, schedule, prescriber. 30 seconds.
  2. Both parents get the family account — each can log doses from their own phone. School nurse can view via shared link.
  3. At dose time, tap "Log dose" — pick who gave it (Mom / Dad / Nurse / Sitter / Self), add an optional note. Done.
  4. Print the school authorization PDF in August — every active med, dose, prescriber, signature line. One tap.
  5. Print the Emergency Action Plan — for the sitter, the fridge, the camp counselor. Re-print after every change.

Frequently asked

Is FamCove a medication tracker app for kids?

Yes — built specifically for parents tracking kid prescriptions across multiple caregivers (mom, dad, sitter, school nurse, grandma). Unlike adult pill reminder apps (Medisafe, Mango Health) it assumes the person taking the med is NOT the person logging it. Every dose entry tracks who-gave-it-when so you stop asking 'did dad already give the 3pm Concerta?'

Which conditions does it support?

ADHD (Adderall, Concerta, Vyvanse, Strattera), asthma (albuterol, Flovent, Singulair), allergies (Zyrtec, Claritin, EpiPen, Auvi-Q), antibiotics (any course), Type 1 diabetes (insulin, Glucagon), seizure disorders (Keppra, Diastat), plus a generic 'other' bucket for anything else.

Does it remind me when a dose is due?

Yes — push notifications at scheduled times. The reminder includes a 'Mark given' button so logging takes one tap, not five. If a parent marks it given, the other parent's reminder is automatically cancelled.

How is multi-caregiver coordination different from a regular pill app?

Solo pill apps like Medisafe assume YOU take the pill. Kid meds are different — sometimes mom gives, sometimes the school nurse, sometimes the after-school sitter. FamCove logs WHO administered each dose, syncs across all parents on the family account, and exposes a real-time 'last given by X at Y' status so the next caregiver knows immediately.

Can I print a school medication authorization form?

Yes — one tap. The school nurse needs a fresh signed authorization every August listing every active med, dose, schedule, and prescriber. FamCove generates the standard format with signature lines for parent + physician. Works for camp medical forms too.

What about emergency action plans for allergies / asthma?

If your child has any active medication tagged 'allergy', 'asthma', 'seizure', or 'diabetes', FamCove generates a printable Emergency Action Plan — what symptoms to watch for, which med to give, and how to use it. Print one for the fridge, the diaper bag, the school cubby, the camp counselor's binder. FARE-style format that schools and camps recognize.

Is it HIPAA compliant?

FamCove is a parent-owned record (you are the data controller, not a covered entity), so HIPAA technically doesn't apply the same way. But we follow the same baseline — encrypted in transit + at rest, RLS at the database layer, no sharing with insurance, schools, or third parties. Your records stay yours.

How much does it cost?

Free for one child + one medication. The Health tier ($6.99/mo or $59/yr) unlocks unlimited medications, dose log history, action plan PDFs, and refill reminders. Per-additional-kid pricing is +$3/mo.

Stop guessing whether the 3pm dose was given.

One log. Two parents. Every caregiver. Every dose.
