one of the best apps

but need an update

Why not updated

I like this app , I use it on my android but why not updates here on iOS

Doesn't work

Literally no way to add meds to this app.

Good

Very good

Can’t save setting

Essentially useless for me can’t save an entry. Every time I hit save, the app closes.

Need more variability with medication dosing

Some meds are not given in the schedules offered in the app. I have a medication that is taken once every 2 weeks. Doing a weekly reminder is not good because I can’t remember if I took it last week or 2 weeks ago. Also as a pro user, will I be forced to subscribe if I already paid for the app?

Response from developer

You can schedule to take your med every 2 weeks by using the Daily schedule type, and choosing the frequency to be every 14 days. And of course if you have already paid for the app, you won't be asked to upgrade for premium again.

Perfect Medication Companion

Reminds you to take your meds on customizable schedules. Keeps track of you medication supply and reminds you when it’s time to get refills, BEFORE you run out. Keeps track of prescribing doctors, pharmacy, and list all your prescriptions including doses and strengths. Also reminds you of follow up appointments.

Shows promise

One of few apps that allows you to have PRN medications. Useful to noting time. May I suggest that it would be far more intuitive to be able to swipe left and right to change the date. It seems silly to only be able to swipe up and go back a day but cannot go forward a day unless you specifically select it on the date.

Forgetting refills no more

I kept letting my wife’s placid run out and it was always a Sunday and our store was closed. Now I have you to remind me.

Missing photos

When I first started using the app I took pictures for each Rx. The next app update, all my pictures were gone. I thought, ok, fine I’ll retake them. The app updated again today and again the pictures are gone. App developer, please fix this, I’m tired of retaking pictures. I have also found that the Rx count isn’t accurate. I religiously use the app and when I get low, the remaining count in the app is not the same remaining in the Rx bottle. It’s not that the Rx count is off since I count the pills when I get them since each pill is expensive so a few missing is not acceptable. So process of elimination, the app isn’t depleting the total remaining correctly.

Sadly not doing the basics

It's a great app in general. Has all the functions I need. Though it just doesn't do the basics, which is reminding me to take the pills. When I set the reminder, than it works for a few days and than it stops at some point.

Response from developer

Sorry for the inconvenience you had. You should open the app every while to schedule upcoming notifications. Unfortunately we cannot change that because it's a restriction by iOS itself. We hope Apple will improve that in the future.

Love it, so much more useful than I ever expected!

Works perfectly

I use this to remind myself to clean and change my monthly contacts.

Excellent helpful medical tool

I love this app it has helped me keep up with my refills and reminders to take my meds on time. One of the best things I’ve done is added this app to my phone!!!!

Sound

Sound cannot be turned off completely. Even in silent mode of the phone, it still beeps when you turn on the app.

Response from developer

Tha app notifys the user about taking meds using system notifications. Therefore, the app cannot ignore device silent mode! If you want to mute in-app sound effects, you can disable them from the app settings. If it's not what you mean, would you give more details about this issue to fix it?

Alles nur mit Upgrade und Kauf zu ändern

Nicht zu gebrauchen ohne Kauf und nur in englischer Sprache

Response from developer

Almost 90% of the app features are available for Free. However, you can remove adsand get some convenience by upgrading to Premium. Isn't that fair enough?!

Promo for Free Upgrade?

I Downloaded the app with the promise from you that I would get a Free upgrade? I keep getting asked for a Promo Code and I am unable to locate one. I would like to try this app for myself and my elderly parents. How do you monitor/remind them of medication? Do you share it with them? I have IOS and they have Android? Please advise about Promo Code or I must Delete. Thank you.

Missing option for meds via patch, notification didn’t show up

Had to substitute “lotion” for patch. Also, maybe make it so it’s not so easy to archive meds?

Update: the notification never went off for a med today until I opened the app.

Only change request

This app is extremely easy to use and very handy to have. The only thing I would like to add would be a section for medical history, of both the individual and their family history. Such as diseases that run in the family and who had them. This and a way to send the info to another person in case of emergencies, such as the emergency room or paramedic or fire Dept. Not sure if sending the info is feasible but a notes page for family medical history would be perfect. I would gladly pay double for this app with that added. I paid for the multiple option because I keep track of a lot of elderly family members and it’s tough to keep all the info straight. This app is fantastic! There are no glitches and it doesn’t freeze up. It’s great! Thank you!
