KLIMSmart Pill Dispenser with Alarm - WiFi Monitoring App - 28-Day Automatic Medicine Dispenser for Elderly & Alzheimer’s Care - Lock Key - New Version

I was really tired of managing morning and night pills. I saw carousel style dispensers online but the lower priced ones were downgraded because they were too difficult to program. The KLIM product looked like all the others but it was twice the price. The difference was in their software/firmware. The KLIM is controlled by a very smart iphone app. called Smart-Life (free). The app takes control of the machine. Once set up, you can easily program multiple dosage times. I take five in the morning and two at night. It utomatically gets the time of day using the app and from then on it just works! The app lets you take pills ahead of time or late. It even sends notifications to your iPhone if you forget to take the pill at the scheduled time. It is so well designed that you really don't need an instruction manual. I never look at the hard to read built in display. It's all done with the app.

This is a very dangerous product. I set it up and ran it through a test run and the very first alarm that went off it stopped halfway between two different doses instead of on a single slot. That means that when my mom would go to empty her pills out of the slot she would get both her a.m. and p.m. meds at once. Depending on what meds you're on this could be extremely dangerous. Particularly if it happens repeatedly. Do not buy this or other models that look exactly like it. They're all made by the same manufacturer with a different brand marketing them. Also want to know this is not due to how I put the tray in because the tray only goes in one way It has a notch that only allows you to set it in a predetermined position so the machine knows where the slots are and still stopped halfway across two different slots. I've seen other reviews for this product that say they had the same thing happen.

I purchased three of them for my Mom with dementia. She lives alone and these dispensers make sure she gets her morning vitamins and evening pills. I can see on my cell phone that the alarm went off and that she got her pills. Their customer service is spectacular. I had a few questions, and they got back to me right away. I can't say enough about this pill dispenser.

Bought the item for my mother who has dementia to help assist in taking her medicine. It takes a minute to get used to the machine and programming. After you get used it, it is helpful with medication assistance. You can program different medications for different times that need to be taken. There are three slots per day which works for her because she takes medicine at three separate times of the day. However, if you take medicine more than three times a day at different times, it could be problematic. But I can't speak from experience on that matter. The only downside with this machine, is that the battery does not last long when it is not plugged into the charger. So we've had to keep the device plugged in to ensure that she can hear the alarm go off for her medications. However, there is a low battery alert that does go off when the battery is low.

The product itself is great. The app is worthless. It’s easier to manually program the device than it is to use the app. The app does not display alarm times correctly, remaining doses correctly and it does not reset for a refill correctly. Because the app is worthless, it makes an otherwise great product a waste of money. I would not recommend this product unless you are prepared to deal with the worthless app and will be with the device on a regular basis to physically make any adjustments instead of having the convenience of using said worthless app.

Purchased for a family member with early Alzheimer’s; this made it so easy for her to keep some independence with her medications and not take too many or completely miss taking.I saw many reviews saying smaller pills slide into other sections and I have not had this occurrence to speak of and has been a month of use so far. Very easy to use once initial set up is done as she is in her late 80’s, set timers for reminders on this system, connected to the app on my phone for easy reminders, and the lock is very secure!! It comes with 2 keys in case more than one person is handling or a backup is needed (you can also purchase spare ones separately). Total set up within less than 5 minutes!! Great product and I highly recommend it!!

Very challenging to use. Not good for travel. Everytime you change wifi, you have to redo the programming. Got this for my daughter to use in college and she keeps calling us at 6am because the alarm either would not stop or did not go off. My husband has reset this thing 4 times now. Too late to return. EDIT: seller offered a refund.

I got this for my Mother who is 88yrs young. Now she never misses a pill. I don't have the need to make sure she's taking her pills nor does she forget. This pill dispenser is a game changer. Love it.
