  • Helpful after eye surgery

    This app is great for coordinating medications that have different schedules. After eye surgery, pain killers are 3/day, two drops are 4/day, and one drop is 2/day, with some tapering to less doses a day over time. When eyes are operated on two weeks apart, this gets really confusing! With this app I can create left eye and right eye reminders with pictures of the bottles. It’s really helpful. A few improvements I would like to suggest:
    - on the schedule screen, add “next” time along with “last taken” to get an idea of the schedule coming up. If I have to plan ahead for an outing and bring my meds, I have to go to each individual med and then click twice to get to the next scheduled time. After my second eye that’s 14 clicks!
    - some medications should be taken no earlier than 6 hours after the last dose, rather than on a time schedule. It would be nice to be able to put that in the schedule.
    - it would be nice to be able to copy and paste a drug (left eye drops are the same as right eye drops but with a different schedule, and copying common drugs from one profile to another would save time).

  • Pill Monitor

    I have used this app for over 2 years and had problems with the earlier versions but not this one. User friendly and I'm able to check my meds every day. And the alert does work. Love the fact that you can select taken all with one swipe rather than having to select each med! Nice improvement!
  • Mostly convenient and easy to use, except when company forces paid upgrade.

    A generally useful app., which could be further improved, if all the pills for that part of the day could be selected as taken all at once, instead of one at a time. I take 9 pills and I have to approve as taken one at a time. I’ve just traveled from California to New York. All my pill times are 3 time zones or 3 hours off. How do I shift the times of all my pill taking so they reflect local time? I do not want to manually do that for each pill. Where is the global zone setting?

  • Basic, functional app

    No bells and whistles, but it does the job of allowing me to track my medications. The interface could be more intuitive. I do wish the medications would list alphabetically by default, but you have to edit the order yourself. It would also be great if you could customize the colors or make it a bit nicer to look at. Would also love a “quick add” button to quickly log a medication right when you open the app instead of it defaulting to “reminders.” Overall, it’s usable.

    Also, when the message to update the number of pills remaining, their should be a button there to take you to the update location.

    All my appreciation of Pill Monitor was diminished with Maxwell, the Pill Monitor company, forced the users to make a paid upgrade to a new advanced app. They refused to answer how to unfreeze the upgrade advertisement, which prevented me from using Pill Monitor.

  • Used to be great

    The original version of this app was very reliable, the alarm was good, the app unfussy and easy to set up. Now its way more complicated, asks for a lot more info than it needs just to set up a few alarms, and doesnt go off half the time. And did I say it now costs a lot more? Really disappointed, and now I miss taking my pills on time lots of time because the alarm is extremely short and often doesnt work at all. Im looking elsewhere for a med app.

  • Pill Minder

    App works well. Easy to set up. I manage multiple scripts that are taken 1-4 times daily. Pill Monitor reminds me of scheduled times and gives the flexibility to record off-schedule doses,too. I do wish there was small data field to record a comment with scheduled dose.
  • What’s with the greed?

    I purchased the pro version back in 2015. But now I’m being forced to subscribe or I can no longer log my med doses. Granted, the subscription rates are fairly cheap but it’s a matter of principal. The app still has the same old user interface with no MAJOR updates in the 7 years I’ve been using the app. So how can you possibly justify this? Furthermore, I had an issue a while back and the developer did not respond to any of my emails. When my “free 3 month trial” is up I will not be renewing. I will use a different pill tracking app even if I have to subscribe. I just don’t want to give my money to you people. Good riddance!

  • Very helpful

    Very helpful to keep my prescriptions in order. Deleting a reminder when you have finished taking a prescription doesn’t delete the history. Easy to use. Thanks!
  • Disappointed Pro User

    I’m not happy that I paid for the pro version and I’m now being asked to pay $10 a year to use the same features. I’ve since found another app (Round) that does what I need, and in my option seems to be a great alternative. I’m really disappointed in the obvious money grab here.
