  • Just a few hiccups

    This app is beautifully presented, but there are a couple of things that probably new to be fixed up or added.

    You can't log in any previous doses. I've even tried changing the date on my phone to log in past doses, but it doesn't work.

    Like someone else said, missed doses come us as "not taken yet".

    If you change the time of day you're taking the medication by taking the pill out and dropping it in another time slot, it comes up saying you need to take both the old and new doses.

    Suggestion: there's no feature to say that you start taking a new med on a particular day, which would be helpful for people such as myself who are still figuring out the right dosage. Adding this into the schedule would be helpful.

  • Fantastic App but with one vital missing feature

    This is a fantastic application, however to make it indispensable would be the ability to either backup your history and settings, or even better, backup and sync across all devices via iCloud or Dropbox. After re-installing my phone and upgrading the iOS i've lost my history, even iOS backups didn't retain the data.

    Otherwise, well done.

  • Fantastic

    This is the best medical reminder out. I've had it since its release and it gets better with each update. It is very easy to input your medication, anything from an injection to pills. Each can be visually input individually which makes them very easy to recognise. Setting up the reminders and the frequency is also very easy and after that you can sinc with all OS devices. I've found it very handy when I'm in hospital as it also serves as a list of easily identifiably medication for nurses/doctors with the frequency taken.

    Anyone on regular medication with a memory like mine should download this App.

  • Glitchy

    I find this app useful but it would be brilliant if it wasn't so glitchy; the names of the meds are missing in the default screen, previous days meds say "not due yet" instead of missed. Also the meds history would be great if you could see all of the meds with in a month view.
  • Very useful, helps me immensely

    I like this, I am a recalcitrant when it comes to taking my meds properly, this helps me tremendously.

    My only comment is the last update did something that screwed up the times, especially if I had Togo back and change the time to when I actually took the meds.
  • Pillboxie

    I'm terrible for taking all my meds at right time so this is great idea, however, I'm also on a lot of pain meds I take as required, would be 5 star if it allowed you to make a note of how many and when such medications were taken, I can't always remember how many I've taken. My husband can never remember what I take and what for, so being able to add this info in will make it easier for him if I have to go to Emergency and can't explain myself (like when I have asthma attacks).

  • Nagging reminder

    I really like this app but this morning the nagging reminder does not want to turn off even after checking off that i have taken my medication.... Please fix. I dont want to have to delete the app.
  • The perfect pill app

    I've tried loads, none of them come even close to this one. It's perfect and even has options that I didn't know I needed! Like history and email history functions . . Easy to use, colourful and simple and nags you when it's time to take pills. If you want to keep the record in your history up to date with times etc then you can't lie or cheat! You gotta hit snooze till you can take it no more, then go and take your pills so you get that tick in the box, and it stops nagging you. Of course you don't have to have nags set but that's just lazy. Love it. Took a min or two to set up but then it's easy sailing. Happy days makes takin all these pills a whole lot easier! Thanks!

  • Easy to use. 6stars :D

    They followed the golden rule.
    KISS & made a great, visually pleasing, easily used & navigated. All around brilliant app.
    I haven't seen anything that comes close for what I want it to do.
    Help me keep track & remember my meds. When you take many different meds at different times throughout the day, I'd by an iPhone just for this app.

  • Not loving the update: fussy

    The app has become more complex: I don't find the splitting of doses on the page useful: I can't track my meds at a glance. My previous review:
    A little gem of an app: like other reviewers, I've found it's easy to set up, a useful reminder and handy when trying to get medication details right away from home.
