For the long haul
Nobody stops taking their medication on day three. They stop in month seven, quietly, when nothing has gone wrong yet.
“I feel fine, so I must be fine.”
That’s the trap in every chronic prescription. The medication works by making nothing happen, and then the absence of anything happening becomes the argument for stopping. Blood pressure, thyroid, HIV, epilepsy, transplant, mental health: different drugs, identical failure mode.
The feedback loop is missing
Skip one dose of a long-term medication and you feel nothing at all. The cost lands months later, as a number on a blood test, long after the habit has already gone. Lockade supplies the missing consequence, small and immediate, on the day it happens.
Years, not weeks
Three fixed slots that don’t drift and don’t need re-motivating every January.
Nobody learns your diagnosis
Medication names never reach our servers. Not to us, not to analytics, not to the person holding your unlock.
Support without a spreadsheet
A partner or a friend can see how the week went without you having to narrate it, or them having to nag.
An honest record
Slots logged and missed, kept plainly. Useful the next time someone asks how you’ve really been doing.
What stays yours
A chronic condition is a fact about your body, not a fact about your contacts list. The split is deliberate and it’s enforced by architecture, not by a setting.
- On your device only: medication names and scanned barcodes.
- Synced, without the names: your dose amounts and slot times, and that a slot was logged or missed.
- Shared with your buddy: slots, streaks, misses, and the requests you sent them.
- Never anywhere: a condition, a drug name, or which apps you chose to shut.

Set it up once
Choose what closes
Pick the apps that would sting. Most people leave calls, messages and maps alone. Lockade never touches anything you didn't select.
Nominate one person
The one who'll ask about it. Changing them takes 48 hours, so the choice you make calmly is the one that holds later.
Then forget it exists
On the days you take your medication, Lockade is invisible. It only shows up on the days it's needed.
For the months when nothing feels urgent.
That's when adherence quietly ends. Lockade makes today's dose matter today.
