A warm, simple companion for people in psychiatric care. Talk or type between visits, never miss a medicine, and arrive at your appointment with a clear picture of how you've been.
It will never diagnose, suggest medicines or tell you what to do. That belongs to you and your psychiatrist. Dear Pal simply makes sure that nothing you wanted to say gets forgotten.
Speak in Malayalam or English, or type if you prefer. Dear Pal writes it down, so a hard day is on the record even when you can't find the words later.
DEAR PALSet your times once. When a reminder rings, answer in one tap, even with the app closed. Your answers are saved and synced when you're back online.
Weeks of small notes become one clear page for your psychiatrist, in English, with your own words beside it. Share it as a PDF whenever you choose.
Invite someone you trust with a one-time code. They see only whether a dose was taken, never your chats, notes, report or medicine names. You approve the link, and you can end it in a tap.
Type or talk, in Malayalam or English, whenever something happens: a side effect, a bad night, a good moment.
Gentle reminders at the times you choose. Mark each dose in one tap, right from the notification.
A one-page summary for your psychiatrist: what came up most, new side effects, how doses went, and your questions.
A private place to say what you feel, a reminder that respects your privacy, and a summary so you never have to remember everything on the day.
Support without stepping on privacy. See whether doses are taken and send a gentle nudge, and nothing else.
A short, structured, self-reported summary before the appointment, with the patient’s own words alongside, so the visit starts with what matters.
Your chats and notes are private to your account. Your psychiatrist sees a report only when you share it.
Ask for your phone’s own screen lock when the app opens, or hide the app name so it shows as “Notes”.

You. Your psychiatrist sees a summary only if you choose to share it. A caregiver, if you invite one, sees only whether doses were taken, never your chats, notes, report or medicine names.
