Most medication apps quietly monetize what you tell them. We read the published privacy policies of the leading apps in this category — line by line — so you can see exactly how MedAi is different.
Your medication data never leaves your phone.
No ad networks, no behavioral profiling, ever.
A random ID only — never your name or email.
One tap destroys your data, unrecoverably.
Here's what Medisafe and Pillo say about your data, in their own words — next to what MedAi actually does.
