Question 1

Can I identify a pill by picture?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Pillence lets you take a pill photo or upload an image to review possible medication matches. The app compares visible details such as color, shape, form, markings, and imprint text, but important results should always be confirmed by a pharmacist, doctor, or other qualified healthcare professional.

Question 2

Can I look up a pill by imprint code?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If the pill has letters, numbers, or symbols printed on it, you can enter the imprint code to search for possible matches. Imprints are especially useful when a photo is blurry or when several pills have similar color and shape.

Question 3

What should I do if I find an unknown pill?

Accepted Answer

Do not take an unknown pill based only on an app result. Keep it away from children and pets, save the packaging if you have it, and ask a pharmacist or doctor to confirm. If someone may have taken an unknown medication or may be having symptoms, contact Poison Control or emergency services right away.

Question 4

Does Pillence replace medical advice?

Accepted Answer

No. Pillence is an informational medication reference tool. It does not diagnose, prescribe, verify a medication for use, or replace advice from a doctor, pharmacist, nurse, poison center, or emergency service. Never start, stop, combine, or change medication based only on app results.

Question 5

Can the app check drug interactions?

Accepted Answer

Pillence includes interaction awareness tools for reference, so you can compare saved medicines or manually entered drug names and review possible precautions. Interaction results can be incomplete or context-dependent, so confirm them with a healthcare professional before making medication decisions.

Question 6

How do I take the best photo for pill identification?

Accepted Answer

Use bright, even lighting on a clean surface. Photograph both sides of the pill, keep the imprint in focus, and include the pill's color, shape, score lines, capsule/tablet form, and any packaging details. Avoid shadows, glare, filters, and cropped images that hide the imprint.

Question 7

How does the subscription work?

Accepted Answer

Subscriptions are billed weekly or annually at the rate shown in your selected plan. They renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period. You can manage or cancel your subscription from your App Store account settings.

Question 8

What features are included in the Premium subscription?

Accepted Answer

Premium access unlocks the app's full pill lookup and medication organization workflow, including expanded photo and imprint lookups, saved records, reminders, history, reports, widgets, and any advanced reference features listed inside the app at the time you subscribe.

Question 9

Can I save medication records and reminders?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Pillence supports saved pill photos, medication records, favorites, reminders, dose tracking, adherence history, reports, and widgets so you can keep reference details organized for review with a professional.

Question 10

How is my data and privacy protected?

Accepted Answer

Photos and app data are used to provide pill lookup, medication reference, reminder, and record organization functionality. Review the Privacy Policy for details about data handling, retention, and your choices.
