MyTherapy Alternative for Indian Families: mydawAI on WhatsApp

The mydawAI team · · 2 min read

The short answer

MyTherapy is a free medication reminder app for iOS and Android. If you would rather not install an app, or you look after parents who live in WhatsApp, mydawAI is an alternative built for India: reminders arrive on WhatsApp with a Taken button, in English or Hindi, with caretaker alerts and refills from your own chemist.

What is MyTherapy?

MyTherapy is a medication reminder app for iOS and Android. According to its own website (as of October 2026), it offers "reliable medication reminders and consistent documentation of your intakes", along with symptom and measurement tracking, refill alerts and appointment reminders. It is free, and its site is available in many languages.

If MyTherapy works for you, keep using it. This page is for people who want something that fits a different way of doing things.

Why look for a MyTherapy alternative in India?

Usually because of WhatsApp, Hindi or family. The reasons we hear most:

  • A parent will not use a new app, but uses WhatsApp every day.
  • The caretaker lives in another city and wants to know when a dose is missed.
  • Someone in the house is more comfortable in Hindi.
  • The family wants refills to go to the chemist they already use.

How is mydawAI different?

mydawAI sends reminders on WhatsApp instead of inside an app.

What does mydawAI not do that MyTherapy does?

mydawAI does not track symptoms, readings or appointments. It focuses on taking medicines on time, family alerts and refills. If you need a health diary, an app like MyTherapy may suit you better.

How do I switch to mydawAI?

  1. Sign up free at app.mydawai.in/signup.
  2. Confirm your WhatsApp number.
  3. Add your medicines from a prescription photo, a voice note or by typing.
  4. Add family members if you look after anyone.

There is no import from other apps, so keep your prescription handy. A photo is the quickest way in. See switching from an alarm or pillbox for tips.
