I like it

It alerted my husband during a tonic clonic seizure and it doesn’t have false alarms which is nice. I like that it’s FDA approved I just wish it wasn’t so much more expensive than the other apps. I also like that they added a seizure log type thing to it so you can record when you have one. Overall it does its job it’s just so pricey($20 a month when most others are $12-$14 a month)so that’s why I give it a 4.

Thank you @kballard95 for the feedback, and we're glad to hear that your husband was alerted. Thanks also for the feedback on the seizure log - that was updated based on user feedback! We also wanted to let you know that we frequently offer price promotions - please reach out to us at admin@epiwatch.com to check on available discounts that may apply.

Doesnt work

The app doesnt work so they “gave me 2 free months” but really that two months only ended up being like 14 days now it’s expired already. 1 and a half months early. Thanks for nothing

Seizure

My son just had a terrible seizure and it did not notify us and he had his watch on.

Response from developer

Thank you for your comment, we would like to help troubleshoot this to identify what may have happened - could you reach out to us at troubleshooting@epiwatch.com so we can obtain additional information? A reminder to all EpiWatch users that the monitoring needs to be turned on using the blue 'monitor' button on the watch face to start seizure monitoring.

Should’ve avoided Apple

Being exclusively apple is their biggest problem. Great system and apple ruins it. Requesting money back. Call me when you get away from apple.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback - we are always appreciative of input on ways we can improve. We have heard this feedback from other Android users, and will strongly consider other platforms in our future product development roadmap.

Latest update makes the watch die quickly

The most recent update makes Apple Watch count the monitoring sessions as a workout - this makes the watch die quickly, which is a problem if you need to wear the watch continuously for many hours. The battery used to last ~12 hours while monitoring continuously, now the watch dies after ~7 hours of monitoring. We reached out to the support email but have not received a response, hopefully there’s an updated fix soon. Prior to this we had no complaints!!
