Prescription Reminder, Refils User Reviews

Works well, could use UI change

This app is fairly reliable and does what it needs to do. The UI needs done updating on the colors and fonts but ok. This last version added another layer to the interface so that I always have to pick the list to see. Great if u need to handle multiple lists. However I only have one which it should recognize or allow me to mark a default list!

Very Useful

One of the things I like about this app is that it lets me know when the last day of when my prescription runs out. I know that I can go in and pick it up the week before that. I also like that it keeps track of the pills I’ve missed, but doesn’t include that in the regular prescription run out date. For me it has been very helpful.

Longtime App

I have used this prescription app for over 5 years now.. Simple, easy to use. Keeps me up to date when I have to order prescriptions. New update makes it so easy to see how many left in your prescription bottle, love that feature! Thanks for a great app!

Response from developer

Thank you for your kind words and 5 stars. I am happy that it has made it very easy to order your prescriptions. Reviews like this, makes it worth the 100s of hours it takes to make these apps at no cost or advertisements to the user. Have a Happy Thanksgiving and thank God for his many blessings. David

Great

Since resolving two minor issues (Brian responded in a timely fashion) I can now edit this review. This app is simple to use and I especially like the addition of the ability to have multiple lists. I created one for my as needed prescriptions. They are now out of my routine medication list but still able to track them. Thanks for this app.

Update 11/13/2024 Ver. 4.3 is now available which automatically resets the notification number. Brian, I am happy to answer all your questions. A lot of people may have the same questions.   Que 1. "How we, now I have a notification that there is something pending" - On the calendar screen of the app, you will notice some pill bottles that have a black bell icon on them. Those currently have a notification that will be sent to you on the "Alert" date and time. If the pill bottle does not have a bell icon, you have no notification scheduled for that prescription.   Que 2. "small number on the app icon" - Means that you have received a notification. To see notifications your on iPhones, put your finger at the top of your phone and slowly drag it to the bottom. It will show you your past due notifications. However, I have noticed that many times that after clearing the notifications, the number stays on the icon. In that case, go to settings, Notifications, Prescription Reminder and turn "Badges" switch off.   If you haven't updated to version 4.1 yet, you need to it, because it resolves a know issue with the keyboard and has a much faster prescription data entry. It will not change the badge issue.   Thanks for your questions,   David

New version

Brian. I just updated to your new version. I am trying to create a new prescription list. I clicked on the plus and was able to enter the new name but I can’t find how to save it. Won’t let me use. Return or enter on the keyboard and I see no button to save. I can’t close the keyboard to see if there is a save button under it. Help. I really like the changes made in this version. Thanks for making a simple excessively useful app.

UPDATE. Thanks for the response. I got it to work. How we, now I have a notification that there is something pending (small number on the app icon similar to the one that appears on your telephone icon). I have clicked everything and can’t get it to go away. Any more suggestions oh wise one.

Stopped working

This is the most simple, best app to remind me to refill my medication prescription and I’ve relied on it for quite some time. Other apps force you to remember to tell them you’ve taken your medication each day, taking my medication is not my issue, remembering to refill is, so they all just annoy me.

Unfortunately it has ceased to function for the past few months and uninstalling and reinstalling hasn’t solved it.

ONE IF THE BEST APPS I HAVE EVER USED!

I have to keep track of three different peoples prescriptions and that is not easy. Until now it was a weekly thing going through prescriptions for refill dates. NOT ANY MORE! The app tells me when it’s time to fill medications. Talk about a time saver!

Great app but needs more options

Such an awesome app and great to keep track of pills remaining. Just wish I could use for multiple individuals and that I could have unlimited amount of medications per person.
