Extremely functional ...

I came on today for a new pain app as this one keeps crashing and won’t allow me to add more medications.
I am so relieved to see this app will continue. Please when upgrading the app keep the safety function but allow me more medications.

I’ve been on pain medication for years and for as long as I can remember I’ve used an app to log my entries, I’m super careful because one of my medications can cause overdose extremely easily. However, I had an error where I took the wrong tablets because of having the same shape as the ones I intended to take (when you’re in as much pain as I am you just take them) and I went into potential OD danger. At the A&E they asked me a series of questions that made me realise I’ve often taken too many of this medication because of how I count my timings (I simply go from one day to the next and have even, very naively because I’m not stupid, waited for midnight to take some). We worked out that on some days I take up to four tablets more than I should (that’s 2000mg more than I should and for some people just 500mgs too much can be a problem). No wonder that, of late, my liver had become damaged. Hence, my search for an app that will monitor my 24 hour usage began. And the only one that I could find was this one. I have to say, I hate the interface and overall look, and I’d rather have PDF to email to my doctor. Plus I really don’t need to see the entries that I've deleted on this email record neither. But because it’s the only app I found that monitored my 24 hour usage I had to work with it, and because of lack of choice it has to be the best available. Oh and and another really excellent plus is that I emailed for assistance and customer service is excellent. The author responded really fast and gave a good detail of how to fix what I was struggling with. Thank you. The only reason I’ve dropped a star is because there’s no try out app, so it was a financial risk to try the app, and the interface and overall look isn’t stylish or to my liking. In fact, I think it’s pretty ugly but I do like how I can choose colours (I just don’t like the ones available). I will change my rating to 5 * once then option to email a pdf record, face login, and personal colours, are all available. And when it just looks cleaner maybe with a calendar option. These are just simple gripes because the app really does do what I need it to do and the owner is very responsive in helping out too.

‘Simply The Best’

I have used this app for many many years, I was so afraid I wouldn’t be able to calculate my meds, times since Bob said he was retiring, I’ve looked at so many so called ‘Medication Apps’, but none have done what Medi-Prompt has done for me. I take 14 different meds a day, it takes care of me, 99° of the time. But quirky problem guys, the alarm doesn’t always sound when it should?? But I even use Clock alarm to give me two minutes ’Heads up’ to take tablets?? Bob wasn’t able to hear theproblems, he deserved his retirement, But something you can possibly look at? Like the song, Simply the best’ Medication App going. One thing, don’t change what ain’t broken guys! Thank you for saving Bob’s creation and I look forward to using it forever. Well, I’m now unable to launch - Medi Prompt , Every time I try to launch the app, it just crashes. You could have left us participating with the App, then make us switch over to the (I presume) a paid app if we wanted too! Give us some slack here guys, we rely on this app, to make sure we’re doing the right thing, when we should?????????? Thank you in anticipation. Fishing 1391

Flexible and accurate

I tried many medication apps before medi prompt. Medi prompt was the first I found that was flexible enough to allow scheduling based on the last time the medication was taken instead of putting in a scheduled time. I rely on it heavily for a complex series of medications, it is great.

Medi-prompt

Fantastic app ! Such a big help with managing medications. Sad to hear that there won’t be any further updates, but wish you a happy retirement. I wish I could program so it could continue.

Great app and very useful BUT....

It is spoiled by the reminder repeat alarm prompt. Can’t find a way to turn off this feature as the repeat alarm keeps going off after the medication dispensation time has been reached/passed and medications given to patient.
I have been unable to turn off the alarm and attempts to do so are met with a message the 0 (zero) seconds is not applicable. I wish to have the alarm alert me just once at the time meds are due and do not wish to have a repeat alarm “nag” me to (re-)administer the meds after the patient has been given their timed dosage.
Because of this “nag” I [sadly and reluctantly] have had to uninstall an otherwise excellent app. 😥😪

My search is over

There are many apps out there that look fancier but none of them are as flexible in options as this app. It may not look like much but it’s definitely functional. It covers just about every scenario of dosage you can think of. I’ve stuck by it for years. Thanks for sticking around.

I’ve been using this app for years now and it is by far the best one available. Fully customisable drug entries and scheduling, comprehensive logs, and invaluable when asked “what medication are you taking?” By other health professionals.
To paraphrase, “does exactly what you want it to do”

Outstanding!

I’ve been using Medi-Prompt for several years now and I love it! I tried several others before discovering this one and none offered the capabilities of this one. I have a couple chronic conditions necessitating quite a number of medications on a regular basis as well as frequent rounds of short terms meds. This handles them all and reminds me when it’s time to take them. There’s a lot of flexibility built in and customer service is great. Definitely the app for medication tracking.

Brilliant App 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 if used correctly

I have been using this app now for almost a year. I had a brain injury many years ago and find it difficult to remember when I’ve taken tablets or when I next need to take them.
I’ve personally found this app invaluable. It’s become part of my life and I couldn’t be without it. It is quite in depth to set up initially, and took me a while to figure out, but of all the apps I’ve tried over the years this is the one that does the job.
It is a daily / hourly reminder when I must take meds, with alarms, as long as my phone is not on silent, and will warn me if I’m about to take a dose too soon, and even, if I set it that way, remind me when I need to order more. (Stock levels).
I can add in new meds or delete them. If I make a mistake and say I’ve taken something at the wrong time or the wrong med, logs can be deleted.
It’s been really useful also, as I record I can show the doctor, when attending as to how often I’ve needed pain meds.
My only reservation when recommending this app to any user, is it’s very comprehensive, and it will take a while to get the hang of, if you’re possibly older, or not as tech savvy as the young are these days. However, some might argue that that is a plus point - it being so comprehensive!
I most definitely recommend this app if you have a need to keep track of medication, and keep logs of what you take, when, and for what.
Definite 5 Star 🌟

To the developer - Please don’t stop supporting this app, despite wanting to retire... this is the best app in the App Store of its kind. You most definitely achieved what you set out to do. It’s a life saver for me! Thank you for deciding to design this yourself!

Fantastic App

I have been a member of this app for many years now.
I needed to be reminded to take my medication and have a lot of different medication to take at various times of the day.
This app is perfect for doing just that; it has various options available, it allows you to either set regular timed dose reminders, scheduled intervals or even ad hock (p.r.n) options.
You can also set warnings to ensure medication is spaced out safely.
The app allows for other people to have reminders set.
A stock control option is one of the great parts to this app, as it keeps control of stock levels, and can have reminders set up to ensure you are notified in advance when stock is running low.
All in all, this app is like I said before, a fantastic app and I give it 5 stars without any hesitation.

Full of bugs

This app constantly crashes and shows data on top of data, meaning you have to quit the app and then reload every time you want to see when you can take something again.

Was a great app and then with a recent update has made it slow and impossible to use.

Very useful

I have used this app constantly for the last 5 years and find it a great help.

Glitchy and NOT user friendly

Can’t believe I actually purchased this app. Tried to input data and in their message section to users, each time there would be two messages (from a previous med I tried to add)overlaid on top of each other so it’s illegible. So frustrating not being able to read anything, I refuse to keep exiting and re-opening the app only to find that it had the same problem. SAVE YOUR MONEY; this app is a waste of time. Medisafe worked like a dream in comparison to this mess.

Does it all - brilliant!

This app really does manage to do everything I want in a medication reminder app. It is easy use and yet contains features that mean it will deal with my complicated regime without a hiccough.
The developer is great at responding to queries and the app is regularly improved with updates, some of which I suggested - so he listens, too.
Beats all the others hands down.

Very effective app

Once setup this app is very helpful. It takes some time to refine the settings to suit my schedule of medicines. I would recommend it to others and I have successfully used it for a while and have rarely missed my pills

excellent

I've tried a lot of the pill-taking programs. All have some missing feature that stops them being so useful for me.

This one is exactly right. It allows me to add all my timed and ad-hoc medicines. It reminds me about taking too many paracetamol in a 24 hour period. etc.

RN loves it for himself

I’m a registered nurse and have worked with medication management for many years. I have a couple of prescription meds I take now, and I also like to track over the counter Meds I take. It is important to tell your doctor or nurse what you’re taking and when. It helps to have a reminder and this app is an excellent choice for reminding, tracking, and letting you know if you might be taking too much (among many other features). Look into this app, it is the best one I could find and I tried plenty.

Great app with learning curve

Really like the app once I finally got the hang of it. It really took some patience magnifying glass to read all the help screens, font is way to tiny. Lots of choices in ways to enter your medicine.
After finding out that the person who wrote the app is now retiring. Also it will cost now. Besides all that it took a long time to finally get the app corrected. So now I am saying that I’m frustrated.

Fantastic App

The best app I have ever used for anything. It has been a life saver for me having to remember to take at least 3 medications a day at various times. It really has made my life so much easier from this respect. So sad Bob is retiring and it will no longer get developed but I totally understand why especially after the recent 11.2 issues. Must have been so stressful. Was worth far more than £3.99 let alone £0.99 even unsupported.

If you need to take medication on a regular basis, get this app, even now. It’s fantastic at what it does, easily 5 stars and more.
