Have deleted and reinstalled numerous times but to no avail. ### 1/5 — Hangs on loading screen *2025-05-28, version 1.5* Hangs on loading screen and fails to launch. iPhone 16 ### 1/5 — Unable to use *2025-05-21* App doesn’t work - can never get past the first page and have to log in to NHS anyway so not sure why the app is worth having. Now going back to the gp surgery to change to the old set up, ordering through the NHS app! ### 1/5 — Unreliable *2025-05-13, version 1.5* This app is too unreliable, use patient access instead ### 1/5 — When it works it’s okay *2025-05-02* Most of the time it has issues and the pharmacy can’t do anything about it, so have to revert back to contacting the doctor again making the app completely pointless ! Days and days of not being able to even access my account just going round in a loop, login and it kicks you out log in kicks you out again… waste of time. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2025-04-16* Unable to order batch. I have to visit pharmacy or call to order. A totally pointless app. Zero point using them tbh when I have a large supermarket about the same distance away. This has been broken for a while. ### 1/5 — APP DOES NOT OPEN *2025-04-09, version 1.5* I am stuck on the loading screen every single time I open the app, not worth downloading and even bothering to try. Waste of time ### 1/5 — Hangs and does not log on *2025-04-07, version 1.5* When “verifying your details” upon log in for the first time, the process of “checking the NHS database” hangs on 93% and does not complete. ### 1/5 — Not working *2025-03-26, version 1.5* Don’t waste your time as it will not load , tried reinstalling the app and still won’t work . ### 1/5 — Glitchy app *2025-03-18* I’ve been trying to reorder my medication and the app keeps glitching. I’ve deleted it and reloaded but having no luck. I understand that tech issues happen but really need my medication and this is stressful. ### 1/5 — Pointless *2025-03-11* Cannot even log in, gets to 93% and doesn’t progress any further. Tried everything to rectify but can now see from reviews this is a common problem. ### 1/5 — Fails to load *2025-02-11* Like others have detailed the app fails to load, just sits on the loading screen and goes no further. Tried everything, rebooting device, reinstalling etc and nothing works. iPhone 14 Pro iOS 18.3 ### 1/5 — Nothing comes up *2025-02-08, version 1.5* Just a picture and a Day Lewis sign. ### 1/5 — App suspicious & won’t load! *2025-02-07, version 1.5* App will not download, it tries to sell a site & also to use your information! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2024-11-27, version 1.5* Just freezes on the opening screen. Pointless. ### 1/5 — Useless *2024-11-26* Can’t get by the first screen. It doesn’t load at all and is a waste of time. I’ve sent an email to let them know. Whether I’ll hear back who knows. It doesn’t open at all for me. ### 1/5 — App not working *2024-10-22, version 1.5* Downloaded app but the screen isn’t interactive Useless app ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t bother using this app *2026-07-28* Twice I have put my orders through to the GP and the GPs are saying they never received them and I have experienced delays getting my medication. In the app it shows the request has gone through but the surgery didn’t receive anything ### 1/5 — Poor synchronisation *2026-07-23* The app does not update as a prescription travels through the NHS system. Even when a prescription is collected it still says “awaiting GP approval “. I have advised company many times but never been fixed. ### 1/5 — Won’t log in *2026-03-31* I need to order repeat prescription but won’t load any further than 93% and my doctors won’t allow me to do it any other way! I had this issue last year so deleted it and had to go into the actual pharmacy. I’ve just received another text saying to reorder on the app so thought I’d give it another go…. Same thing 93% and no further! I see there’s been no updates for 2yrs! Maybe stop telling people to use the app when they can’t! ### 1/5 — Stupid and health hazard. *2025-12-29* Why does a pharmacy need an app for a repeat prescription. Now I don’t get notifications when it’s ready and when I look after a week it’s discarded. Have to start again and then the surgery needs to talk to you why you ordered it again. Then can’t get an appointment for 2 weeks and you run out of medication. This app is a health hazard. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-12-13, version 1.5* Completely useless app that just goes in a loop trying to log you in. May as well just contact your doctor and not bother. ### 1/5 — Does not work! *2025-11-18, version 1.5* Hangs on initial loading. Not much more to add. How has this been approved by Apple??? ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-10-09* I’ve been trying this app for months because it looks like it could be quite useful, but I’ve never managed to get it to work ### 1/5 — Frustrating *2025-09-29* App won’t open properly just turns me back to NHS app which 7 days later I had to ring day Lewis to find out where my medication was. Not even received my request. ### 1/5 — Yup, 94%! *2025-09-13, version 1.5* Hangs on install (94%) so useless. ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2025-09-09, version 1.5* Just doesn’t work . Removed it and will use the nhs app instead ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Hangs on loading screen - iPhone 12 Pro Max *2024-09-03* Unable to load the app at all. Hangs on the initial loading screen and goes no further. Device details below. Unable to give much more, but if you require more device info please let me know. iPhone 12 Pro Max iOS Version 17.6.1 ### 3/5 — Rob *2024-01-22* Can you check the app as it’s not working properly in my case it’s saying I don’t have any repeats left when I’ve just renewed it via my doctor ### 2/5 — Why use this? *2025-03-23, version 1.5* Access is far to difficult, much easier to use NHS repeat… ### 2/5 — Just stopped working suddenly *2025-03-03* Not sure what happened but the app stopped working properly. Can’t find my pharmacy and logged out of my NHS account. ### 2/5 — Wont work for me *2024-02-01, version 1.5* It doesn’t go past the first loading screen. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
