User reviews

Buggy

The idea behind this app is great, but it’s unfortunately buggy. At the most fundamental level, the medication scheduling features need work. Once a medication is added, it’s theoretically possible to customize a schedule, but in practice, no matter how many times you attempt to change a medication schedule, the schedule never updates. If you’d like to delete a medication, hit the delete button a thousand times and, well, good luck with that. Try to talk to tech support and you’ll get an automated message that they’ll look into it. Truly shocking that this app has existed for more than a year and fails at such a level of basic functionality

Easy to use and helpful info

I take some medicines, but also help take care of my nana, who takes a lot more. I think the safety checks and care network options are great. I also like that the app organizes the drugs automatically. I learned that one of nana’s drugs should be taken on an empty stomach.

Response from developer

Thanks for the review. We're very excited that you find the safety, drug information, and caregiving options within the app to be helpful.

Very Helpful App

As and transplant and gastric bypass patient I take A LOT of medicines and vitamins. It is imperative for my health that I take my meds on time everyday. This app helps me keep on track. I like that it shows possible interactions with other drugs etc. The alarms are helpful and I like the care network feature. I didn’t give it 5 starts because uploading meds manually is a little inefficient. I look forward to that feature being updated given that this is a new app.
