HealthcarePatient Compliance & Behavior Management3MediumCaregiver$ implied
Elderly patients struggle to correctly identify and take medications due to language barriers, poor eyesight, and reliance on visual appearance over drug names.
Existing medication reminder apps rely on text-based drug names and don't accommodate visual identification via photos, non-English voice prompts, or missed-dose alerts to caregivers.

It simplifies adherence for elderly patients who struggle with text-based names.
