### 1/5 — Avoid! Worthless

*2025-06-25*

A waste of time. Downloaded app, entered requested data THREE times and each time just a piece or two would be saved. No name but photo is there. Do over. Now DOB (which is a pain to set as you can’t just type it) shows up but the rest of the information entered is gone! Last try. Nope. Weight is there but all else is gone. DELETE!

### 1/5 — Rubbish app

*2023-04-24*

Difficult for o change personal details. Dare of birth wrong and can’t change it

**Developer response:** Hi,

To change the date of birth, open the app on your iPhone, select Settings > Manage Medical ID and you'll be able to change it there.

If you are still having issue, please email support@adamfoot.dev so I can assist you.

Thanks,
Adam

### 1/5 — Doesn’t sync with watch

### 1/5 — Was great until it stopped working.

*2022-10-23*

This app worked great when I got it. Then I updated to IPhone 14 and Apple Watch SE. The app still shows in the list of apps when I scroll thru on my watch, but it’s no longer available in the list of complications to choose from in the watch app on my phone. I emailed the developer, and he responded by asking what version of iOS Im running. Never got another answer or any suggestions for solutions.

**Developer response:** Hi, you should have received a response from me by now, if not please email support@adamfoot.dev and I’ll respond as soon as possible!

The issue you describe seems to be a common problem in watchOS 9 unfortunately but I will keep looking into it.

### 1/5 — It’s Been 2 Years. Former Fan of this App is Done.

*2017-12-14*

It was amazing when it worked. Considering the vast amount of time I’ve spent trying to get it to update, and by that, I mean, show ANY of the info I’ve entered, AT ALL, and that odds are greatest my watch would have shown NOTHING most of the time, should emergency personnel have had need to press the medic complication on my watch, I’m so done playing playing with this thing. I wrote a five star review long ago, mentioning my concerns of potential danger when the app failed (which was far less often back then) yet somehow it’s only become worse. Would love for this to work again someday. Can’t say I’ll ever waste more time on it though.

**Developer response:** Hi, MediWear has recently been rebuilt so previous issues should no longer exist. I invite you to test out this new version and if you are still experiencing issues then please email: info@adamfoot.uk. Please consider updating your review otherwise :)

### 1/5 — Crash and burn

*2016-09-30*

This app was great when I got it, but now every time I try to update the info from the app to my Watch it just crashes. 

Tried rebooting both devices and trying to update, failed. Tried uninstalling from both devices and reinstalling and updating, failed. 

And now for some reason when you try to go to the developer's site it circles back to the App Store. 

Please fix.

**Developer response:** Hi, MediWear has recently been rebuilt so previous issues should no longer exist. I invite you to test out this new version and if you are still experiencing issues then please email: info@adamfoot.uk. Please consider updating your review otherwise :)

### 1/5 — Bugs make it useless

*2016-07-31*

Can't get it to update info on phone to watch, "update" does not work, even after uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times. In which case, the app is useless.

**Developer response:** Hi, MediWear has recently been rebuilt so previous issues should no longer exist. I invite you to test out this new version and if you are still experiencing issues then please email: info@adamfoot.uk. Please consider updating your review otherwise :)

### 2/5 — Love app but

*2025-08-01*

The app itself is nice. Unfortunately I can’t get the data on the Apple Watch. Deleting it due to this problem. If you can get it to work let me know. Instructions are useless as they don’t work.

**Developer response:** Hi,

Please email support@adamfoot.dev so I can assist you.

Thanks,
Adam

### 4/5 — Everything is fine except for this bug

*2021-01-31*

At first everything was fine until I added the year of birth, apparently the older years will just switch over from 19__ to 20__. I hope this gets fixed because it’s important to my grandfather.

**Developer response:** Hi, apologies for this! Can you try again using the latest update please?

### 5/5 — 希望能支持中文

*2025-06-26*

### 5/5 — Dosnt work

*2024-04-21*

It doesn’t work no more on my iwatch won’t let me load it onto my watch keeps on jumping not working at all

### 5/5 — Works good , except .......

*2018-12-06*

My medication list keeps disappearing and I can’t use the app when the watch is on lock screen , other than that it’s a nice app

**Developer response:** Hi, version 2.0.1 was released yesterday to fix the bug you describe - if you see it again then please email info@adamfoot.uk. In regards to your other issue, no Apple Watch apps work when the device is locked - same way your iPhone functions.
