### 5/5 — Excellent Customer Service!!

*2026-05-07*

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!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review @Katy Beck 💜
We're committed to helping parents as quickly as possible, knowing how important it is, especially when a little one is sick. 
It's amazing to hear that Encurage has been helpful for your family again, it means the world to our small team. Wishing your little one a speedy recovery!

### 4/5 — Used for my Dad

*2026-03-23*

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.

**Developer response:** Hello @smalliebiggs82, thank you so much for taking the time to share this, especially during such a difficult time. We’re truly sorry for your loss.
It means so much to us that the app could help your family stay connected and supported while caring for your dad. We’re grateful we could be a small part of that.
We deeply appreciate you sharing your experience, as each and every feedback helps us improve and learn how we can further support families. 
Wishing you and your family comfort and strength 🤍

### 4/5 — Good App, Very User friendly!

*2026-03-19, version 2.4.5*

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.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-02-12, version 2.4.3*

It helps me alot with the reminders but I do wish it was like a alarm ring but other then that it’s great

### 3/5 — Editing

*2026-01-22, version 2.4.1*

The medication editing is not user friendly

### 5/5 — Perfection

*2026-01-21, version 2.4.1*

This app has helped many times for Dr appts ER visits for both kids & myself as an adult.

### 4/5 — Not perfect…but decent

*2025-12-28, version 2.4*

I really want to love this app. However, tracking is a little tedious. You have to a bunch of hoops to log medicine you have given and if you  “skip” a dose, it’s a pain to get in there and edit it. I am having a hard time justifying spending $30 to unlock all the functions.

### 5/5 — 5/5

*2025-11-03, version 2.3.4*

Cannot express in words how this app has been a life saver! Makes parenting a little easier!

### 4/5 — Getting Better Every Day

*2025-10-25*

I’d say that there’s a bit of a learning curve to this app, but it serves such a wonderful purpose. My daughter has a lot of medications and her father and I are going through a divorce. This app allows us to make sure that she is getting her doses and also leave each other notes about things like diapers, behaviors, and other things that we may want to make note of. Support has also been wonderful whenever I’ve been a pinch that I couldn’t figure out on my own. They’re very speedy and polite and of course helpful.

**Developer response:** Hi @Primagina, thank you for this wonderful review! Beyond happy that Encurage is helping you care for your daughter, and coordinate care for both parents. Thank you so much as well for sharing your story, and helping more families navigating transitions to learn how the app can be useful for them💗
We're so glad support team was able to help quickly! We'll definitely share this feedback with them. 
If you'd like to share more feedback, or feature requests, we would love to chat with you at hello@encurage.app

### 4/5 — Good App, Very User friendly!

*2025-09-05, version 2.3.1*

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.
