So have to quit are re-open between each entry. ### 4/5 — Good app *2023-12-27, version 8.0* Good app, which took a little bit of effort to get the data in but overall very happy. One additional feature, which would be nice, would be to allow you to tell the program that you have reordered any medication, when prompted as per instructions, rather than having daily reminders that it is getting low... Also disappointed that what I thought was a very useful function I.e. being able to accept ALL outstanding medication confirmations in one step seems to have disappeared or have I changed a setting somewhere!!! ### 4/5 — Annoying new bug… *2023-12-20* After one entry a pop-up screen appears for rating the app. But none of the functions work and there’s no dismiss. So have to quit are re-open between each entry. ### 3/5 — Bug fixes *2021-06-17* Soft ware needs to be inprovided and bugs fixed , and a good set of instructions add. Also there seems to be a limited set numbers of medications that can only be programmed into this app. I’m not sure if the problem if this is the iPad iOS inter facing. Still needs bug fixes with pill counter amounts and usage, date time of pill refills !!! ### 3/5 — Pulls *2020-10-09, version 6.0* Just anglais ### 2/5 — Annoying Update *2020-07-23* UPDATE: I’m happy that “dark mode” is now supported BUT the pop-up dialog (incl. text) where you acknowledge taking the meds is way smaller (my eyes are getting worse, not better), and the watermarked image behind it doesn’t darken - that’s annoying because I often have to use the app in the dark and the bright background hurts my eyes... the whole app should go dark. PREVIOUS (don’t know yet if this issue has changed): I used to love this app, now it’s annoying. The latest update has added a function that tells you how many pills you have remaining in your supply. Even with a three month supply entered into the app (in two places for each medication) I get a pop-up dialog every time I try to acknowledge that I’ve taken a pill. The pop-up says either that I am really low and need to reorder, or I’m out and need to update the quantities - then it won’t let me continue until I manually increase the quantities. I finally set the quantity remaining (two settings each) for each of 12 medications to 1,000... but I still get the pop-up for each medication. Either there needs to be a way to disable this function in settings, or I need to stop using this app. ### 3/5 — Everage *2020-03-27, version 5.0* Has trouble if more than one patient with alerts. ### 2/5 — Simple *2019-12-25* Simple and straight forward. Does the job but could be greatly improved. Integrate seamlessly with related blood pressure app, export either a csv file or pdf report, and organize email and pdf report ... drugs horizontally, date and time vertically. Existing drug email report does not show dosage. Should be able to enter multiple medications simultaneously, as many pills are taken at same or similar times. Number of pills taken for each medication should default to one (1), to speed entry input. ### 4/5 — Could use a few more features but it is a very good app. *2019-12-01, version 5.0* I would like to see more features. Such as: set reminder by date to order more pills, be able to have doctors contact information available, and the ability to see who’s profile is currently on screen just to name a few. ### 4/5 — Pill Monitor *2019-10-27, version 5.0* Somewhat difficult to set up but then very easy to use ### 4/5 — Good supporting mechanism *2019-10-10* Great recording help. Historical records help maintain consistency in taking medication ### 5/5 — Pill Monitor *2019-08-30* Since my heart problems started severely years ago, I've had to take a number of medicines. Pill Monitor has been invaluable for me. ### 4/5 — A very good start. *2018-02-07, version 4.2* The app is invaluable for reminding me when to take my meds, but that’s about all without a lot of research into how to enter special conditions i.e. some of my pills are only taken on the third Wednesday of the month. I would happily pay for the facility to see a graphical representation of drugs taken etc. and an easier data entry method. ### 5/5 — Great app *2018-01-12, version 4.2* Very useful. Use all the time! ### 4/5 — Great, room for additional improvements *2017-08-20, version 4.1.2* Great , helps keep trace of wife's medication and reminders when due. Would be nice to have a weekly spreadsheet option or a graphic display of consumption, but it does the job of tracking the pills! ### 5/5 — Invaluable *2017-06-26, version 4.1.2* It isn't the easiest setup but once you figure it out it's great. I don't know how I'd manage without it now ### 4/5 — Reasonable Pill Tracker *2017-06-22* Once you figure out exactly how to enter new medications along with dosage etc, it does a good job of notifying you when meds are due. However the exact process for modifying a medication if something changes it not user friendly at all so it's a lot of trial and error to keep current. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Irritating pop up ad! Try a different app *2023-03-06* I thought I had the Full version for a while now. And all of a sudden I get a big pop up ad asking me to subscribe to an app I already paid for. It’s Very Irritating! Now I have something else to do, close their pop up every time it pops up! The developer should do the advertising on the App Store where it belongs, not in the app! Im probably going to delete it and go with a different app. A thought for the developer, in this economy subscriptions are not the way to go. UPDATE: The developer lowered the frequency of the pop up ad but will not eliminate it. So I’ll just eliminate the app and any future purchases from this developer. ### 1/5 — Do not subscribe pro version *2022-12-25, version 7.0* I thought I had the Full version for a while now. And all of a sudden I get a big pop up ad asking me to subscribe to an app I already paid for. It’s Very Irritating! Now I have something else to do, close their pop up every time it pops up! The developer should do the advertising on the App Store where it belongs, not in the app! Im probably going to delete it and go with a different app. A thought for the developer, in this economy subscriptions are not the way to go. ### 1/5 — Good app turned rip-off *2022-05-21, version 7.0* Bought all features for a one-off fee. Now the developers say that is no longer valid and a monthly or annual fee must be paid on top! It was a good little app. but subscriptions should be for new users, not those who paid a one-off amount in good faith. I hate being ripped off and will not subscribe as I believe a purchase made in good faith should be honoured ### 1/5 — Has its flaws *2017-01-14, version 4.1.1* Most of the time it works. Other times I have entered in my morning pills and come evening and I take my evening medication it has lost the records or my morning medication and I have to re-enter it. There have been several times I am entering my morning medication records and it says I didn't take my medication the previous day and I have re-enter my am and pm records for that day. ### 1/5 — Ms *2015-08-11, version 3.1.1* I just downloaded the paid app. I cannot get (add drug) screen to go away so I can see what I have already logged in!! So far I give it minus 5 stars!!! ### 1/5 — Not recommended! *2015-07-27, version 3.1.1* Should be able to complete drug info by pulling the metadata from the drug companies product disclosure register. Data needs to replicate across multiple devices. This app could be so much more than just a simple database. ### 1/5 — Hopeless *2015-05-12, version 3.1.1* Does not work properly all the time frustrating ### 1/5 — App is ok *2015-03-03, version 3.0* Ok is App ### 1/5 — Pill reminder. *2014-09-02, version 2.1.1* It des not deduct the amount of medicine from the amount currently in bottle. Can this be fixed? ### 1/5 — USELESS APP *2014-05-26, version 2.1.1* Works if only take once a day but you cannot set for every 3 hours or every 8 hour if needed USELESS APP ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Pill Monitor Pro + Dosette + Motivated Patient = SUCCESS! *2023-04-03, version 7.1* Thanks for this excellent application! By a “Dosette” I am referring to a 7-compartment pill container filled weekly on Sunday (or the day that fits best with your routine). ### 5/5 — Very handy app *2022-07-25, version 7.0* As needed to keep track of medications, searched through various that were available. This one has been the best and enables me to keep a record for my doctor. ### 5/5 — Pill Monitor App *2022-04-25, version 7.0* Brilliant App I take Warfarin and need to keep a note of daily dosage, I can also register my INR level Great for keeping all these tecords. ### 5/5 — Effective, yet free. *2022-01-07, version 7.0* I have been using it for a while. I just wish it could notify by mail as well. ### 5/5 — Couldn’t live without it! *2021-07-15, version 6.1* It’s a great app for keeping track of meds... ### 5/5 — Mr. John E. Smith *2021-06-15* I can’t imagine doing without my Pill Monitor. It never fails to remind me When I have a pill to take, which is very important. It also keeps track of each medicine I take and reminds me to reorder when a prescription needs to be ordered. It has a place to put in all the particulars of each medicine and the persecution number, Doctor who prescribed the medicine, dose , when to take it. It is a wonderful program and I in courage anyone who takes pills to try Pill Monitor. ### 5/5 — 5 Star Rating *2020-08-03, version 6.0* The App works well - i have no complaints. ### 5/5 — Great App *2019-11-24* Been using it for 2 weeks and haven’t come across any glitches or things I would change. ### 5/5 — Excellent App *2019-11-05, version 5.0* A really great app for managing meditation. ### 5/5 — Very useful App *2019-10-24* Using to track my me3ds --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
