This is the biggest waste of money Our government has paid for once again. ### 1/5 — Invasive offensive app *2024-11-08, version 9.39.1* I am a responsible healthy adult. I have an excellent primary care physician as well as other specialists. I do NOT need an app taking my personal information and instructing me how to pee in a cup. I will not do this again. ### 1/5 — minuteful kidney test *2023-09-14* Everything went smoothly until trying to position the color-board for a picture. I had good lighting and I followed all preparation instructions closely. Apparently I got a “time out” message and so the test wasn’t submitted. I guess - go ahead and send me another test kit but not sure I want to go through this again. I am not impressed. I’ll go into my Drs office for a traditional urine test. **Developer response:** Hi there! I am sorry to hear you encountered an issue while completing our test. The app will deliver a test error if it is unable to scan the color board within the time frame that the dipstick is still valid. We would be happy to send you a new kit! Please call us at 844-688-5055. We are available Monday - Friday 9am - 8pm EST. ### 1/5 — Test *2023-08-22* Waste of time I have an annual wellness exams and all was good with blood work ! **Developer response:** Hi there! Thank you for your feedback. The Minuteful Kidney Test is an ACR urine test which is different than a GFR test done through bloodwork. Our test looks for elevated levels of protein in the urine that can be an early indicator of kidney damage. It is best not to try to interprate the results on your own. We always recommend following up with a medical professional. ### 2/5 — Don’t take me through step by step *2026-07-27, version 9.42.2* Just give me written instructions and let it go. Video was annoying. ### 2/5 — Dumb kit *2024-10-09, version 9.39.1* This kit was a pia to use. 1. You didn’t say to read the instructions first.. 2. There’s no way to send a message when you are done ### 2/5 — Objectionable *2024-07-09* When asked to write the review I had been provided with a nearly useless result. This is clearly a way for the promoting company to make more money and not be fully supporting the test taker. The result showed a VAST range and seemed designed only to get you to see your doctor. While that is useful I was led to believe the result would be more granular. As it is the test is entirely too binary: eg you have issues vs no issues. Not good enough as I already know that from a doctor I trust explicitly. I wouldn’t have bothered taking the test had I known the result is provided in a uselessly broad manner. ### 3/5 — Minuteful Kidney test *2024-07-07* This test took me over an hour, and I had to call my daughter for help. I think you are being quite unreasonable and expecting older people who are your customers to do this high-tech stuff with cameras and cell phones and all this tech stuff think about it who are you dealing with, I am 91 years old. I did not grow up with technology. This was totally frustrating. ### 3/5 — Only did one kidney test not 2 *2023-04-13* Was stated to test for 2 different types of kidney test but only tested albumin. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. The Minuteful Kidney test is an ACR (albumin to creatinine ratio) urine test. Similar to an ACR test in a lab, the Minuteful Kidney test measures the amount of protein in your urine. The test results are a ratio of both albumin and creatinine in the urine rather than individual measures of each. This means that while the test is looking at both albumin and creatinine, there is only one test result. For more information, please call our support team. We are available Monday- Friday 9am- 6pm EST at 844-688-5055. Wishing you the best of health. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Normal! *2026-08-07, version 9.42.2* Great test kit!
