### 1/5 — Does not work

*2022-12-06, version 2.8.27*

Tried to create sign in several times, even deleting app and starting over. No luck. Would be great if it were actually possible to sign in. Main app for store works just fine.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-08-27, version 2.8.27*

I downloaded this and filled in all of my information but it wouldn’t let me access my medications and when I tried to sign in again the next day it wouldn’t even let me sign in. Very disappointing as this would be very helpful if it worked.

### 1/5 — Login fail!

*2021-10-27, version 2.8.27*

I have both of their pharmacy apps and neither one works. Why even bother?

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2021-09-28, version 2.8.26*

Doesn’t work really disappointed

### 1/5 — Log in Fail

*2021-09-13, version 2.8.26*

After making all entries kept receiving Log in fail

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-09-13, version 2.8.26*

App doesn’t work. Keeps saying to check the number I put in to send verification code. The number is correct. This app stinks.

### 1/5 — just doesn’t work.

*2021-07-31, version 2.8.26*

The app needs a lot of help. Doesn’t really even work. I had some initial success after download. After that it seemed to just not work at all . 
The Graphics are look like early dialup internet..

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2021-06-20, version 2.8.26*

Simply doesn’t work. Confirmed a refill on the app. Actual pharmacy didn’t get it.

### 1/5 — App does not work

*2020-08-31, version 2.8.19*

Can't order refills,see my current prescriptions or anything other than create a account. The old app while not elegant at least served it's function. Was this even tested before it was forced upon us?

### 1/5 — Useless

*2020-08-08, version 2.8.17*

Same problems as others. Try to add medication, yet told my phone number is wrong. Have tried 4 different phone numbers I have access to and never works. Bring back the old app that actually functioned.

### 1/5 — Bring back the old version please!

*2020-08-04, version 2.8.17*

The old version worked great. Flawlessly even. The new version doesn’t work at all. The only pickup date or will allow is December 2019 (on 8/3/2020) which results in an obvious error message. I guess I’ll abandon the app and make a phone call. Sadly disappointed.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2020-07-31, version 2.8.17*

The add pharmacy meds part does not work. I enter the store number and current prescription number, press the get my meds button, and it tells me that it can’t verify my prescription because I have the wrong phone number. When I check the phone numbers in my profile they are correct. Also when I enter my cell phone in my profile, it asks me for the carrier. I enter the carrier and save it. When I go back and check my profile, the name of the carrier is missing. This app is useless to me.

### 1/5 — Wish it was better

*2024-05-09*

App is very much lacking/ not up to date.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-03-15*

This app doesn’t work. If you can register, you can’t get back into it a second time & it does not work to see or refill prescriptions. Skip the app & go old school by picking up the phone.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2023-11-05*

This app is too difficult to bother with. I am very technology literate and I am not able to utilize this app

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2023-09-24*

Can someone please do something to fix this app and have it work. A lot of people depend on this app for their medication.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-09-13*

App does not work

### 1/5 — Fail!!

*2023-07-26*

This app is a big fail. That’s what I get when I try to creat an account. I also tried to use my sign in for my big y account and it still doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2023-07-11*

Never had an issue previously with using this app.  Last few times I’ve used it, it doesn’t recognize any of the info I try to submit.  Have updated it with no improvement.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work.

*2023-07-07*

Big Y seems not to be paying attention to this app. Logging in never really worked right for me, and now I can’t even refill a prescription because it can’t load what ever external data sources it uses to be able to access local pharmacy info. I like shopping at Big Y, but their IT strategy seems to be piecemeal. This is not the era for skimping on IT!

### 1/5 — Worst Pharmacy App EVER!

*2023-06-28*

Big Y should be ashamed of themselves. They are there to help their customers manage their healthcare, and they can’t even manage their own prescription ordering site. I don’t accept that they are a small company, because this is an old program that is just not being upgraded or maintained. It’s like using dialup for internet in 2023! Customers (patients) have no way of knowing if the order they placed has actually been filled. If you order multiple drugs at once, an automated call won’t let you know if any are being held up. Many times I show up to find the order was still waiting on my doctor to send in the refill. Sometimes the site is stalled, and I need to call my orders in. Other times, I will get automated calls saying my order is ready - days after I had picked up my order. And the app doesn’t allow you to see if there really is anything ready for pick up. The app also just lists the names and doses of your drugs, but doesn’t state the last time you filled them. And since they all stay in the system (even when expired), you end up with too many to pick from with the same name, and no way of knowing which is the most recent one filled. I spoke to an IT person in the corporate office about a year ago after I ran into some major issues with the app. I was informed that they were planning an upgrade and were currently researching different options and companies to go with. They lied! Nothing has been done and it is even worse now! One of the pharmacists hinted that it was a financial reason. If it wasn’t that I switched to Big Y for my pharmacy especifically for their pharmacist, I would be long gone by now. This is extremely dangerous to a person’s health to have you show up for meds ordered 4-5 days earlier, to find out they never got the order. Or it was stuck with the doctor awaiting a refill. If the customer/patient was aware, they could follow up and push things along. I hope anyone reading this reconsiders using Big Y as their pharmacy. From the other reviews, it appears I am not the only one who thinks they get a letter “F” grade for their prescription app!

### 1/5 — Stopped working.

*2023-06-11*

Please test and fix.
