Good App recommend

I’m new to Parkinson’s However this App has had some great features. And highly recommend the app. It would be nice if the app had a feature to monitor tremors via an Apple Watch. But all in all a good app.

Tracking

This app records your progress it is really good you have a device to do this very happy with app

Ver 4.8 ?????

The writer of this app SPONSORED this app. What the heck is he talking The Education tab is an eyesore. Should be 5 star but that………

Price auto charge

No where did I see “in app purchase” I don’t like your app and I was just checking it out. This morning I was alerted that I have a charge of $9.99 that I didn’t know I authorized. Shortly after I checked out this app I deleted it. Trying to get a refund.

Great app

Excellent! Works on older devices and iOS versions too. Very easy to use.

And superb privacy policy too!

Thanks Devs!

Half pill doses?

I take 1.5 Carbidopa Levodopa at regular intervals. How do I enter that in LifeKit? (You answered! Thanks!)

Additionally, you can back enter your med dosage (say, you just remember at 6:53 that you forgot to enter your 5:30 dose), but I can’t do the same with “Medication Phase”? If it’s possible, how do I do that?

Thanks again,
Scott

Response from developer

Hi, yes it’s easy. Just create a medication that is half the dose. That half dose with the full dose equals 1.5 doses.

Great app when it works

Used this app after purchasing it and it was a great tracker to show to the doctor and then they got a bug or something and all my saved data disappeared. Emailed the company and was informed they are fixing the problems and the app would be back soon.
App returned but data was no longer there.
Again great app just make sure you back it up somehow.

No results on anything ever

UPDATE: Developer contacted me and asked me to contact them, but left no way to do that. Feedback link still broken! How about working on that very specific issue first, or alternatively, you could provide contact info. Link to contact developer gives no way to contact the developer. Talk about frustrating!

Feedback link crashes app. Every test is unusable due to the fact that none of them produce any results. It’s sad. I got this on sale, so the developers are still involved, just not in anything to do with making the app run correctly. They’re more focused on putting the app on sale to raise some funds. I hope they use those funds to make the necessary repairs to make the app usable again.

This app is a labor of love and we want it available to help people with Parkinson’s. If it didn’t meet your expectations please let us know how to make it right!

Used to be good

New Issues 6/5/2022

I take several different Sinemet Rx for my PD: IR 25/250, ER 50/200, IR 25/100, and list them in 1/2 doses and full doses in the app in the event I need a little “boost”. I also have a Rx for Selegilin.

Up until today I had no issues logging how much I took and when, but this afternoon when I would try to log 1 tab of Sinemet IR 25/250, it would show up as 1 on the 1/2 tab IR 26/250. When I tried to zero out the 1/2 tab, the 1/2 tab remained and also logged as 1 tab on the correct 25/250, thus showing that I took 1-1/2 IR 25/250. When I tried to view the Raw Data, it kicked me out of the app. And yes, I did update the app.

—————————————

This was a great app, if for nothing else but to track my meds. This morning I was “locked out”, having to create a login account. Every user name I tried, even my own email address, “already exists”. I don’t remember ever creating an account over the last couple of years that I’ve been using the app, but with having PD, who knows. There is no option for resetting a password. So now I can’t access the data I’ve been tracking all this time, nor can I seem to create an account. Update 10/26/2020 Since you removed the login requirements, I’ve been trying to go back to tracking my meds. The app is not saving any of my information ... at all! I’ve had to manually track my meds on a notepad app since 10/13/2020. This app is totally useless to me now.

Time of day

Wish the results showed the time of day when tracked. Makes a difference as to when you track and when meds were taken. I only gave 2 stars because 3 stars would be average. I like the app, but it is less than average.

Stopped working

I loved this app and used it every day then it was updated and all of my data was erased and it no longer saves data from one day to the next. I hope that you fix it soon then I will start using it again .

Update spoiled it...

New password & account functionality doesn’t work. I’ve tried twice to set it up. There is no support function or contact the developer option, hence the review. Shame, because the basic functionality was quite useful.

Update after 4.01. There is now an avoid login button. But when I used it to get into the app, I found that my data from previous use of the app had been wiped. Frustrating.

Very helpful to a new parkie!

This app is worth the price because I will be able to give my doctor concrete documentation about my progress.
I would give it 5 stars but the medication part is confusing to me and I wish I could set alarms for exercising.

Parkinson’s LifeKit

The Tutorial plays but no sound.
Cognitive activity remains on colours.
Memory activity - nothing on screen.

Awesome

By far the best app for those with PD. It has lots of great features and you were able to export the data. I look forward to more functionality in the future. Keep up the great work!!

So far it’s great

Just recently found and started using this app. Mood and off-time have been problematic for me and I hope to gain insights that I can share with my doctors so that we can tweak my treatment plan. My only complaint is the cost, but hope the developers will use the capital to enhance this apps functions.

Response from developer

Hello, thanks for the praise and feedback! Every cent we earn is reinvested into the app. You are supporting cutting edge technology, designed by PWPs for PWPs!

Great Update

The team responded quickly to a problem I identified. The App is a very useful tool for monitoring your progress, especially in the early stages of the journey through Parkinson disease.

Worth using

This is an excellent app. Although I don’t really understand how the medication phase works. Otherwise it’s good great to compare reaction times when you’re tired vs when you feel bright and cheery.

Excellent

wish there was a journal feature. would help contextualize mental health aspect especially.

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback! We have added this feature and are excited to hear your thoughts on it.

Essential if you have Parkinsonism

Tracking your symptoms is so important if you have this condition. Keeping an eye on medications, and also objective measures for how you’re doing. Key thing for me was that I’m able to track symptoms more than once a day, can export the data to excel for further analysis if I want to, and it’ll import data from Apple health.

The developer is always open to ideas for development. Well worth the investment in your current and future health!
