This feature is already released. Navigate to the Schedule screen and tap on Add Dose button. Thank you for your review! ### 5/5 — Very helpful! *2021-09-12, version 1.066* Clean, easy to use, and does exactly what I need it to do. 10/10 app! Thank you to the developer for making this :) **Developer response:** Thank you a lot for your review and kind words! ### 5/5 — Great little app *2021-08-29, version 1.066* I used to use the WebMD app for pill reminders but it was missing very simple features I’d expect to see. This app has em. ### 5/5 — Very helpful *2021-08-25, version 1.060* I have to take several meds at different times during the day and often can’t remember if I have taken them. This app has solved the majority of the issues I have had with remembering. The developer is very responsive to feedback and I believe this app will only get better with time. Creating and modifying schedules is as simple as you could ask for. The new critical alerts keeps my dnd settings from blocking notifications, love it! Thanks for making a great app! **Developer response:** Thanks a lot for the kind words. I will try to implement the new features as soon as possible. ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2021-06-30, version 1.03* Very well designed and especially helpful with medications that you forget to take often! I recommend! **Developer response:** Thanks a lot for your kind words! ### 5/5 — Well designed and perfect for keeping track of medicine *2021-06-23, version 1.0* Really impressed by how well this app is designed, which leads me to always taking my medicine on time now! Would love to see a widget in the future. **Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words! I'll start making a widget tomorrow. If you have any suggestions or want to participate in the beta test, please write to the mail. The mail can be found in the application Settings tab. ### 5/5 — Simple and effective *2021-06-20, version 1.0* Just downloaded this app and set up my reminders for medication. I setup the reminders app to use my medication before but still forgot if I took it but after I mark that I’ve taken it, there’s a list of confirmed. Super happy with it! Thank you! **Developer response:** Thank you very much. I am happy that the list of confirmed doses worked as I expected and that you found it useful for yourself. ### 5/5 — Well designed *2021-06-20, version 1.0* This is a useful and well designed app with well thought out interface. Easy to use. Although native iPad support is something I would like since elders usually prefer it due to big screen (big text). Though it’s not absolutely necessary since it is functional enough on iPad to get things done. **Developer response:** Thanks a lot for your kind words about the application. I will try to add the iPad version soon. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t use if your meds are essential *2021-06-26, version 1.0* I tried to use this app to change a time to take one of my meds. It’s important and needs to be taken with food. I set the time and it worked for two days then the app stopped working. I forgot to take my meds for a few days and got myself into rough shape. I checked the app today and got this message. “Welcome Back! You’ve missed a lot of reminders. To save your device battery life the application turned off reminders on some of your medications”, and it lists my important med. I can’t believe how irresponsible this developer is to design an app like this. It should be removed from the store before it causes someone serious harm. **Developer response:** Hello. Thank you for your constructive feedback. Can you try to do the next? 1. Navigate in the app to More -> Settings -> Delete All Data. 2. Then delete the App completely. 3. Restart your device. 4. Download the app again. That definitely should help. PS: I am very disappointed that the application is not working as you expected. I would be grateful if you could find the time to contact me by mail (support@bandyliuk.com). I need to clarify some moments to understand what I need to fix. I will wait for your email. Thanks in advance. ### 2/5 — Read inside *2021-11-08, version 1.093* Sorry for the 2 star review. It was to get your attention. Daylight savings broke this app. No matter what I do, I have duplicate reminders one hour before the reminder I want. And my reminders that I had before daylight savings were moved behind an hour. Very dangerous for an app meant to help keep track of peoples meds. I know programming is a tough gig so I’ll change to 5 stars when it’s fixed. I really like this app otherwise. **Developer response:** Hello. I’m so sorry. Can you contact me via email? You can find my email in the “More” tab. I will more than happy to resolve this problem. Thank you in advance. ### 2/5 — Medication is more then pills *2021-06-20, version 1.0* The software looks like it has lots of potential, but without the ability to add medical patches many people will not be able to use it. ### 3/5 — Crashes & won’t start any more! *2022-12-16, version 1.108* Complete black screen. I lost everything! Update a week later - I was able to get the app started an my data was still there. Whew! After that, there is one medicine that keeps on duplicating itself in the schedule. Not in the list of medicines, but in the schedule. The first day, one extra dose. 2 days later, two extra doses. I have to keep looking at the history and the rest of the day to see how many doses are left. A little confusing. Thanks to the developer for the support email! **Developer response:** Hello. Can you write me at support@bandyliuk.com? I will help you. ### 3/5 — 能拿来做提醒待办就好了 *2022-05-22, version 1.103* 用用药的重要性，来提醒我背单词，会不会有用？ ### 3/5 — Needs work *2022-05-12, version 1.103* For some reason I have to keep turning the Reminders back on. No pattern every few days. ### 3/5 — Love it ..but *2021-12-29, version 1.100* I can’t find a way to log in a medication I must take only once every 3 months, usually the first day of the month. Definitely 5 * if you can implement that feature ! **Developer response:** Hello. Did you try to open the Schedule tab and press Add dose? ### 3/5 — Ok App, not Thrilled *2021-08-11, version 1.060* This app needs a better way to look at the history. I would like to see the months in a calendar view of by each day whether all my pills were taken. That way I can see what days I may have skipped doses. The current history view is just a line by line by each pill going in descending order. If it was in a calendar view with a symbol indicating green if all pills were taken, yellow if some pills were taken, read if you skip those completely. For the days missing pills you should be able to select that day and see exactly which pills you may have missed. **Developer response:** Hi. Thanks for your feedback. On the "History" tab, all doses on the right side have a time section with a green or dark blue background. The color indicates the status of the dose. Light green means the dose has been taken. A dark blue color means that a dose has been missed. But you are right that it is not so obvious now. Please write to me by mail, which you can find on the "Settings" tab in the app. I want to improve this moment and need your help. Thanks. ### 4/5 — More alert-type options *2022-11-13, version 1.108* Please add support for time-sensitive notifications in addition to critical notifications. Please also add support for specifying whether the notification for a specific medication should be critical or just time-sensitive. ### 4/5 — Time zone problem *2022-07-23, version 1.103* I have been using this app for while and really liked it. I had my time setting on my iPhone the time zone I’m in. I recently went on a trip to another time zone and had changed the zone setting to change with the zones I’m in. Instead of going off at 9 am/pm in the vacation area went off at 10. Okay not a problem for a week. But then I get back to my home and it is still going off at 10 instead of 9. I changed my time zone to my home zone again and it still won’t go off at 9. Changed it back to change depending on which zone I’m in. Still going off at 10 even though my alerts in the app say 9. How can I get it back to 9? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Banner stuck *2023-08-26* I love this app, it’s very helpful! At the moment I have the banner showing 1 and I have not found anywhere that I didn’t take a dose of medicine and just appeared this past week. I have emailed you but no reply yet. ### 5/5 — Reliable medication tracker, EDIT: Dev fixed issues with DST! *2022-11-09, version 1.108* The app works well, I've been using it for over a year now. Reminders, supply, and medication tracking are the best. Plus, great privacy unlike most other med tracking apps. EDIT: Medications are no longer duplicated when DST happens! Thanks so much for the updates! Old review: Recently, all my medications were duplicated because DST just happened. If I go to delete them, duplicate ones appear the next day. I will of course update my review once this is fixed - thank you! ### 5/5 — Simple and effective *2022-07-27, version 1.103* This app does a great job of notifying me that it's time to take my prescriptions. That's all I need and that's what it does! ### 5/5 — Great app to keep track of my family meds *2022-07-26, version 1.103* This is a great app that has really helped me and my wife stay on top of our medications when we both have a tendency to lose track of ourselves and need a gentle reminder to take our meds ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2022-04-17, version 1.103* It is so helpful. It has a timer to alert you to take your meds that I love. And it’s great that I can snooze the timer if needed. And even when you snooze, the reminder is constantly there on your lock Screen. I have too many reminders in my reminders app that my phone sometimes hides them. This one never gets hidden and it really helps to keep me on track. The creator of the app also responds very quickly to any suggestions you have too. Definite 5 stars. 👍🏼 ### 5/5 — I use it every day! *2022-02-10, version 1.103* This app works as advertised. Couldn’t be happier. I like how the critical alerts setting allows the reminder to show up even in DND or Focus mode. The developer is very responsive to emails. If you’re looking for a serious upgrade from setting your alarm daily and then going to your medicine cabinet, get this app. It keeps track of whether you’ve taken your meds or not. And there’s an optional refill reminder! I would love to see an Apple Watch app, but for now the alerts come through on the watch, so all is good. **Developer response:** Please accept my deepest thanks! ### 5/5 — Useful App *2021-12-30, version 1.100* Works great to remind me to take pills. ### 5/5 — Majid.gh🎄 *2021-12-30, version 1.100* Very very good app for everyone thanks do much…🙏🙏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👌👌👌 ### 5/5 — Great app *2021-12-29, version 1.100* Use it every day and night ♥️ ### 5/5 — Found the perfect app *2021-12-09, version 1.096* This app is perfect for reminding when to take your medicine. I like that the app does not use servers to store your data. I contacted the developer regarding a feature that I needed. The developer quickly responded to my inquiry that it was on his list of things to do. The developer pushed out an update shortly thereafter. Thank you for this app! **Developer response:** I'm so thankful for your review! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
