Great app!

Great app to help me remember to take my patches and where to put them. Simple to use and effective.

Not easy to use!

Couldn't work out how to use it at all!

Please add features?

If these features exist, I can’t find them … I would appreciate the ability to:

1. Add medication names
2. See history
3. Add dosages
4. Have multiple methods of delivery (patches & gels, etc) at the same time

Thanks!

Notifications stop showing

After a while the notifications stop showing on my mobile and I end up forgetting to change my patch until well after the time it needs changing.

Could do with being updated as well as it’s not been done in around 6 months

Does everything I need

The UI isn’t the clearest, but it does everything to help me remember to take my nasal spray and patches. Thank you ❤️

Not intuitive

How in the world do you add the next patch once you hit 4 patches? I need some instructions please.

Helpful

This is a helpful start for managing HRT. I used it before and couldn’t get y the x days on and y days off to work, and it does now, which is great. The app allows users to choose patch or gel though, and I use both (patch for oestrogen and gel for testosterone) and it doesn’t allow me to choose both.

Essential App

This is the only app that tracks my patches the way they need to be. I was without the app for a couple of months and could not find a suitable replacement. I’m so glad it’s back in the App Store!

Thank you

🏳️‍⚧️it is awesome❤️

Pretty good and convenient

But the twice a week a bit confusing should be, example, Monday then Thursday but on the app it says Monday then Friday

No Quantity/Mode for FtM?

I really like this app but I have 2 requests. First would be to be able to set the “Quantity” for injections to the actual mL instead of it being stuck on “1” which is kind of weird to me, (unless people are using more than one patch?) Also I would love if it could be switched to a FtM mode with corresponding illustrations, especially since the app doesn’t seem to remember that I’ve chosen the “blank” image for all injections to try avoiding the MtF illustrations, and auto-reverts to showing me an image and it isn’t even the right injection site anyway since I do subq abdomen shots. Thank you so much for reading and I hope these can be taken into consideration for the next update!!

Could be better

Get idea for an app but the patches come in two variations so it would be useful to be able to add the type of patch to keep track of them in addition to the date to change them.

Custom time

I wish I could select a custom time to change the patch. For ex, if I take it at 8am it defaults to 8pm two days later. Well, I don’t want to change it at night. It gives me a headache. I would like to be able to put my own time in to change the patch. I’m gonna give it a try bc I keep missing my cut off day but this feature may make it unusable for me.

Good app.. but

I like this app it is simple and easy to use.

One thing that would make it better is if I could see what x day of x days I am on for the progesterone pill on the front page.
The only way to see this at the moment is to click edit to view.

Help

Is it possible to change the day?
As day 1 is Thursday and need to change on a sunday and not Monday as comes up.
Also is it possible to put detail about which patch as on combined and need reminder when need to change to combined on day 14 .

Useless

No matter how much I try to update my change time to 8.15am the app defaults to PM. Not user friendly and inflexible. Will stick with my phone alarm.

It keeps getting the day wrong for patches

Isn’t that like the only thing that this is for like just put a notification on your calendar for those two days and save yourself the confusion

Response from developer

Hello! Do you have "Constant expiration times" enabled or disabled in settings? Could that be the case? Is the notification showing up at a different time than the "expiration" time? Or what exactly is going on? Also feel free to email me at support@patchdayhrt.com Thank you and sorry again.

Expiration Date Issue

I can’t adjust the expiration date for my patch. The one that I’m on lasts for seven days not five. Great concept but not able to adjust for different forms of medication.

Response from developer

The expiration is based on schedule settings defined in the top gear on the right in the main view of the app. You go to the settings and you change the expiration interval and then the patches / injections / gel (whichever you use) will use that interval. Then, you can also choose to enable staggering or not. If you want consistent intervals, enable it. Else by default the expiration interval is based on a given interval of time after the patch was place (or injection injected etc). I hope this helps!

What I was looking for

Great to find an app for exactly what I needed it for, I was having trouble keeping track of exactly when I needed to change patches.

Excellent app

I wouldn’t remember when to take my patch or pill without this app. This is one of my most valued apps. Thank you
