Perfect

I’m on loads of meds that all run out at different times, and it’s hard to keep track of reordering them. This handy little app does the job perfectly.

Awful and dated looking

can’t even put the first date in. Had to delete app looks dated and cheaply made

Give it a try

I just downloaded this and will give it a try. I already found a few limitations that make it difficult.
1. I have found that sometimes after entering information in the Notes field and saving it, I go back later and find all my notes have disappeared.
2. If I use the app switcher from the app in order to look up information in another app, after going back to this app, I’m back to the splash screen and all the data I entered for a prescription is gone. I have to start all over again. Grrrrrr.....
3. In the Notes area, there are no select, select all, copy, paste functions! Why?? Some information about a pill may be in another app and I want to paste it into the Notes!
4. It would be nice to be able to take a photo of a prescription label or even the pill and save it in the app.
5. How about the ability to sync across devices?

Landscape View?

Can this app be viewed in landscape mode on my iPad? Looks like friendly Rx tracking app but landscape presentation would be more suitable for my device. Thank you.

Needs help- not reliable - does not save info

I save rx info but the app is not saving it officially so loses all info I put into system for each rx
I entered one rx weeks Go and it was fine but entering my second one does not work

Also the person’s profile name is not showing with rx on the home page
I thought more than one person’s rxs were able to be saved
Confusing home page

Saving feature needs to be more clear by actually adding an icon
Otherwise you forget to save when you close the app

Great concept
Needs a lot of help & better customer support
Customer care is just a generic coding site so I’m not even sure if anyone is even monitoring this app anymore which is a shame
Bc I’d like to use the app but can’t rely on it until certain features are updated or fixed.....

Amazing application but currently unusable

This application has everything that we would have wanted however at this point in the software update cycle it is simply unusable (maybe because of updated iOS 12.1.4?). Specifically, there is a significant amount of delay between taping an icon and app response. Is anyone else having this issue?
Otherwise is is such an amazing application!
Thank you so much dear developer for taking the time to create this app!!!

Not ready for iPhone XR... or me, for that matter

First, let me I’d really like to be able use this app. Two things prevent me from doing that.

The XR notch wipes out half the “menu” across the top of the app’s home screen. Makes it difficult to get things done.

Also, for us old codgers, 16 prescriptions may cover our morning doses. I take 30 different meds a day. I haven’t got to the point where I need a pill reminder but a refill /renewal reminder is a godsend.

This is the second time I gave this app a whirl (as I noticed it was recently updated for IOS 12). I’d like to use this app. Heck, I would pony up money if my needs were met.

I used to an app, iRxHelper/RxHelper, that did a great job of managing prescription refills and renewals. It was suddenly pulled from the App Store. When I recently upgraded to the iPhone XR - poof.. it was gone.

Moose Lodge, Thanks for your feedback. I am currently limited to 16 prescriptions due to the method used for local notifications. I will be releasing a new version in early January that will resolve the iPhone X notch issue. Thanks, David

Missing a needed feature

I need to monitor twice monthly injections, and the Doses option doesn’t go higher than a week. It’s a shame because it’s otherwise a simple, effective app. I can use it to track other medications I’m on but it kind of defeats the purpose when I cannot track everything in one place.

**. New Version Now Available. **. . .............................................. Manage 10 prescription lists. ............................................ Send any prescription list to a printer, iPhone or email. ............................................. Absolutely FREE! ............................................ If you are really interested in using the app, I will add a dose per 30 day option on next update. As a temperary work around you can set up your twice per month injection as 0.5 dose per week (this is equal to 2 doses per 4 weeks). This setting will give you the date of your last injection. Thanks for your feedback, David

Keep Track of prescriptions & Refill info

I almost passed up this app. I couldn’t find anything else I liked so I decided to try it, glad I did! This app is so easy to use. Just put in your medication name the rest the information is easy to enter, just spend the number dial to set dosage amount, prescription filled, amount of medication , and then it will tell you when your next refill date is how many pills are left in the bottle and give you reminder. On the Calendar page the medications are all listed in the app puts a red box around medications that need to be called in for a refill. You got a try this app.
