Worth it overall.

This app is nice because my husband and I can communicate who gave meds and what from our phones through the app, but it’s a tad clunky. You cannot edit a dose from given to skipped if you need to. You can add a note but it doesn’t come through the tracking data correctly. There are parts that we don’t use because our child is not an infant so I can’t speak for that portion of the app. I would be interested to see some features for special needs kids like a mood board tracker, phrase tracker with triggers or behavior. It’s fairly inexpensive for less than 40$ a year. Overall it has definitely helped and it was easier than setting up a linked calendar through a free service like outlook or Gmail. I feel like it’ll be 4 or 5 star eventually but it’s got a bit to go. Worth it overall.

Hey there, I'm Hadas, founder of Encurage. I can't thank you enough for writing this thoughtful and detailed review! It’s so great to learn that the app is helping you care for your child and coordinate care with your husband. Your feedback is extremely valuable, as it helps us understand families’ needs and preferences more deeply and prioritize our next updates accordingly. Editing a dose from “given” to “skipped” is something we will definitely address and include in one of our upcoming updates. I also truly appreciate your suggestions around mood and behavior tracking. Some of what you’re looking for may already be available in a way that I hope could potentially be useful for your family. In Journal, you can track mood (along with sleep, appetite and other categories), and generate reports to help spot trends and gain insights over time. The symptom tracker within Tracking Hub can be used to track certain behaviors, with reports available for those as well. I’d really love to hear whether these options fit what you had in mind? If you’re open to chatting with me directly and sharing more about what would be useful for your family, please reach out to me at hello@encurage.app. I’d be very happy to hear from you. Thank you again for taking the time to share all of this, and for trusting Encurage to be part of your family’s care. 💜

No regrets choosing this app!

I’ve been using this app for a HOT minute now and only have positive things to say! I have a very medically complex child (and 3 other children) who takes multiple meds, has multiple doctors, and has lots that goes into his day to day care. I love having everything regarding his care all in one place for me to track. I can keep notes to talk about at appointments, track his growth, illness details, and so much more, and get multiple notifications reminding me to give meds all in the same app— I’m in LOVE! I love that I can also use it when my other kiddos get sick, especially when it gets tricky alternating Tylenol and Ibuprofen. I’ve even made myself a “child” in the app to track my own meds and details when I was sick. 10/10 would recommend to everyone considering some sort of medication/medical care management app! It’s geared towards kids but honestly I feel like you could easily make an elderly parent or other relative a “child” in the app and use it accordingly like I did for myself.

Excellent Customer Service!!

I used this app with my first child back in 2022 and have not used it the new updates. My five month old has a double ear infection and I wanted to use the app again to track his medicine but was having trouble with it. I emailed customer service and the developer worked with me back and forth to get my app up and running again. I cannot recommend this enough to others with little o es!

Used for my Dad

There are a number of medication trackers out there for adults but I needed one that allowed multiple people to track administering meds since he was not able to do it for himself. This allowed all of my Dad’s family caretakers to track things on their own phones and to see what was going on when they were away. It allowed us all to feel connected during his final days.

It would have been nice to hide all the parts we weren’t using and just see the medication timers but I was grateful to have something that worked.

Good App, Very User friendly!

I just have one issue with this app. If I mistakenly select Acetaminophen instead of Ibuprofen, and save, I am not allowed to edit it.
