### 2/5 — Where is everything

*2026-02-02, version 5.4.6*

I paid for the app now I can’t see most of the options. It’s very limiting. Doesn’t make sense.

### 4/5 — Help!

*2025-10-16, version 5.4.5*

I tried this app, and it seems great for those who have this learning style, but it doesn’t work with my learning style but I can’t find where to unsubscribe! I don’t want to be paying for something I don’t use! Could you please unsubscribe me?

### 4/5 — Review

*2025-02-10, version 5.2.18*

Love the app so far! Only down side is with the 16 pro max the Dynamic Island is in the middle of the videos when in portrait mode.

### 5/5 — Happy camper

*2024-12-31, version 5.2.17*

Great way to learn medical terms and drug MOA's in such a fun cartoon way. Who ever put these together is very creative . As a visual learner it helps the content stick . The app also provides daily quizzes as well.  This is what I need to make it click and stick .

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2024-10-01, version 5.2.14*

It can definitely be hard to retain all of the information you need from a textbook sometimes. This app is a great resource to help connect the dots!

### 5/5 — yes!!

*2024-09-13, version 5.2.13*

👅👅👅

### 5/5 — Prepping for nursing school—-fun&engaging!

*2024-08-28, version 5.2.13*

I am loving Thai

### 2/5 — Bad Business No Refunds

*2024-08-21, version 5.2.12*

FYI: Picmonic WILL NOT give refunds! so you better stay on top of Your auto renewal date after you are done with the app!! I would seriously like to know how many people remember their auto renewal dates. I receive so Many emails, that i honestly didnt see the emails were sent. I called the same day that the funds were suppose to be pulled from my account, still pending, and they would not give me a refund. I can maybe understand if it was a week or two out, but I was contacting them the same day they were trying to pull the funds!

### 5/5 — Had to write this one

*2024-05-12, version 5.2.9*

Just want to say that this program is great for me because Im a visual learner. These guys worked hard on getting information that other apps force you to pay so much money for. My program required heavy reading so using this as a tool to reinforce what I read is perfect.

### 5/5 — I passed nursing classes because of this app

*2024-05-02, version 5.2.9*

Seriously. Seeing the pictures associated with medications helped me remember so much. I’d take exams and be able to picture everything about it. I seriously owe part of my license to this app. If you’re a visual learner, I can’t recommend it enough.

### 5/5 — Love

*2024-04-21, version 5.2.8*

Every nursing try this at least for one semester

### 4/5 — Helps me fill in the gaps

*2024-04-09, version 5.2.8*

This app has been a life saver for nursing school. The more ridiculous the pictures and stories are the better I remember. The only things that bother me about this app is sometimes is doesn’t connect my account when I log on and also the support is not connected. I hope someday they make a renin angiotensin system (R.A.S.) video. I could really use it in my AP 2 class.

### 1/5 — Furious

*2026-08-17, version 5.4.8*

Cancelled subscription in February, still being charged. Contacted company, still no response. This is extremely irritating!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Customer service

*2026-04-23, version 5.4.7*

Bad experience with customer service

### 1/5 — App Hasn’t Been Working

*2025-06-27, version 5.4.5*

I haven’t been able to access the app for months

### 1/5 — Sign In

*2025-02-26, version 5.3.0*

I was enjoying this app. Recently, it signed me out and now it won’t let me sign back in. I didn’t sign up with an email. I signed up using my Apple ID, paid for the annual plan when I first signed up, and now I can’t even use it since it won’t sign me in.

### 1/5 — App made up complete update and now unable to access !!

*2025-02-21, version 5.3.0*

App made me complete an update ended up logging me out. Paid subscription. Cannot get access for product that they got paid for till march 17 th. Typical !  Reached out to customer service no response.

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2024-10-09, version 5.2.14*

I have purchased this subscription a year ago. I also have cancelled this subscription but for some reason, I am still being charged and they are not willing to give me a refund even will the provided evidence that I a record of cancellation.

### 1/5 — RN student

*2024-10-07, version 5.2.14*

Every thing I need to watch I have to pay for it 😑😑

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money or time

*2024-08-16, version 5.2.12*

I did the free trial and i doesn’t work for me and I asked them to refund me and they said no that Apple would have to. Then I asked Apple they said no so I’m stuck with a $60 app that doesn’t work for my style learning and I don’t know who’s style it would work for and there’s no help whatsoever from anyone on the issue.

### 1/5 — Punishing us!

*2023-12-19, version 5.2.4*

So, I come here to get the best of the best! We are all poor students trying and struggling at work and at school. Here before us is a fantastic tool you have developed. Most of us, like myself, cannot come up with $200 something dollars to pay upfront for the premium price. Which is also deceiving at a monthly rate. I, like many other here, look to see if we can make monthly payments on the top tier, but you will not accommodate us poor students who are racking up student loan debt, working either part time, PRN, or not at all. So , my point is, your MONTHLY plan is the most overall. Therefore, you’re punishing us. That’s not right nor fair. What needs to happen, and you will get more customers, is to make monthly payments on each tier. But I suppose you’re too greedy to do so. Shame on you. I know you’re parents did not raise you that way. At least I sure hope they didn’t. SMDH!

### 1/5 — Expensive and does not work

*2023-03-17, version 4.24.12*

I paid a lot of money for this app and it worked for less than 30 days. It always gives an error message. Would like a refund or another year of service if this will actually work...

*2026-07-29, version 5.4.8*

I just started using this to study and it is amazing!!!!

### 5/5 — So helpful!

*2026-06-29, version 5.4.7*

Great for visual learners, helped so much during both nursing and NP school!

### 5/5 — Excellent thought processes!

*2026-06-05, version 5.4.7*

Awesome questions on advanced pharmacology, risk factors, pathophysiology, side effects, contraindications, etc. really poses questions. Such as that you will see on an exam!

### 5/5 — Nursing Review

*2025-12-22, version 5.4.6*

This has been my favorite nursing review so far! It was much cheaper than other programs and even has the option to study books that I used during nursing school. I have been a nurse for 6 years and have been going back through and reviewing content just to sharpen my skills. I wish I knew this existed back when I was originally in school. Great product for visual learners like myself!

### 5/5 — The BEST for Visual Learners

*2025-11-27, version 5.4.6*

Is like mini stories for each disease! They keep me motivated and make studying fun!

### 5/5 — Useful

*2025-09-09, version 5.4.5*

Very useful for life long.Completely fulfilled.

### 5/5 — Love

*2025-05-14, version 5.4.3*

Every nursing student should try this at least for one semester

### 5/5 — Block 1 Nursing Student

*2025-05-04, version 5.4.2*

I have be looking for something to put what I’ve been learning in lectures into a visual perspective and I’m so glad I came across Picmonic. I have my final exam in 3 days and I’m using Picmonic for my comprehensive study review. Wish me luck !

### 5/5 — Study Master

*2025-04-27, version 5.4.2*

I used Picmonic for both my didactic studies and pharmacology. It’s one of the first things I turn to right after taking notes because it breaks down concepts into small digestible pieces. Love it, and have recommended it to many people in my cohort!!

### 5/5 — Retaining

*2025-02-25, version 5.3.0*

This program is a lifesaver with the hands on and visual learning.
