### 2/5 — Used to work so well, what happened?

*2019-07-26, version 4.0*

It was a slam dunk and now it’s a clunky app that I just can’t rely on. So disappointing.

### 1/5 — Crap

*2018-10-29, version 4.0*

Didn’t work for me. Apple should dump this app. Would like my money back.

### 1/5 — EASTE OF TIME AND .99$

*2018-07-28, version 4.0*

Lousy interface. Cannot CLEARY color and shape choice. Does not work with image of pill. 
I DO NT RECOMEND

### 1/5 — Worst program

*2018-05-31, version 4.0*

Does not work at ALL. No images, useless product. Save your money.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work well

*2016-01-06, version 4.0*

You can't upload the image to find out what the pill is, description when then searched was no where near what the pill looked like. So I paid the $.99 and it didn't help me at all so it was a waste.

### 1/5 — WASTE OF MONEY!

*2015-07-15, version 3.0.2*

Do not buy this app because no search results come up for anything! I went back to using my free Ipharmacy app which was a fantastic app to begin with and had more features than this one.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2015-07-12, version 3.0.2*

It doesn't work!  Search just returns to the search screen after deleting the search criteria.

### 1/5 — Pull finder

*2015-06-28, version 3.0.2*

It want let me search no pills after I bought this app

### 5/5 — Great app, very useful! 👍

*2014-12-22, version 3.0.2*

I entered as much information as possible and the medication was the first on the search list. Unfortunately I take multiple medications for my back problems and additional medications for my muscle spasms. When I dropped this particular medication I was heading to the pharmacy for a refill therefore I didn't have anything to compare it to. Thanks to this app I was able to identify it quickly & put it away in a safe place.

### 1/5 — If I could give it negative stars, I would

*2014-12-16, version 3.0.2*

This starts trying to find things before you finish looking them up.
