However had a form to fill out today so checked the app and it had forgotten. Definitely a case of, “You only had one job”. ### 1/5 — HEY APPLE !! Remove this app *2022-08-04* ABSOLUTE RUBBISH HEY APPLE! REMOVE THIS APP. Just like: The Whole NHS has been Vandalized by greedy contracting companies, and has absolutely no intelligent beings at the Helm. There is NO management, and pouring money into the NHS just feeds the Greedy contractors and the lazy people who are supposedly called managers.Many pharmacies have been bought out or taken over by foreign entities who don't care at all about people in the UK except maybe people from their own countries... The only way to get help anymore is through back street businesses and possibly cash only deals. It's way past time !!!!! Art least, model of the healthcare system after some so-called Third World countries such as Thailand or South Korea or any other number of countries where there are still intelligent people who know how to manage their country. PRIVATE healthcare is as bad, and supplies NO emergency services or Ambulance service, Even to those with health care plans. ### 1/5 — Display your nhs number *2021-12-20* The clue is in the name, DISPLAY, youve got to know the number, type it in and the app will display What you’ve typed in. ### 1/5 — Pointless app! *2021-05-25* I don’t get the point of this app. You put your NHS number in (which you need to know before hand) and that’s it. You can’t even add more than one NHS number in eg your children’s? Deleted. ### 1/5 — Does not work *2021-05-17* I have my NHS Medical Card. It shows clearly my NHS Number. The app says it is an invalid number. ### 1/5 — Total rubbish. *2021-05-05* This app is total crap, it keeps telling me that my national insurance number is not correct, but I am putting in the correct number, I have put it in with dashes and without,It still does not work. ### 1/5 — It would be nice if..... *2020-09-26* Although it is handy to have your NHS number saved it would be nice to be able to be able to save family members NHS numbers too being a mum and a wife whose job it is to know this. ### 1/5 — Can't enter letters!!! *2020-06-01* As per title. ### 1/5 — Whats the point *2020-05-16* I thought this app would tell me my NHS number. But no you have to already know it. Whats the point, if I already know the number I can save in in notepad or numerous other ways. Rubbish. ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — NHS Number App *2022-02-01* It does exactly as it says, easy to use, just remember to not leave any spaces in your 10 digit NHS Number when entering it and now you have your NHS Number easily to hand It’s not for other peoples NHS Number, but your own It’s not for your National Insurance Number Ignore the nay sayers as they simply don’t understand it actually does what it says on the tin, Simples !!! ### 5/5 — So simple *2018-10-11* This is just an easy way to store your NHS number. ### 4/5 — Does the job *2022-07-26* It would be nice if I could store my daughter number on here too rather than just mine. ### 4/5 — NHS number *2021-05-14* Remember this is NOTHING to do with your National Insurance Number. The hint is in the name ### 3/5 — Missing a feature *2022-03-03* It does what it does, but an option to copy the number from this app would make it so much more useful. Having your NHS number available is kind of useful unless you need to enter it into a website in which case you need to somehow remember it when switching between apps. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
