### 2/5 — Decent

*2025-12-03, version 1.2*

Helps me remember, can be improved to be able to edit the already added reminders on the tracking screen.

### 4/5 — Good tracker

*2025-07-03, version 1.2*

I like that I can keep track of how many pills I have left. Too frequent ads though.

### 3/5 — Reliable App

*2025-04-22, version 1.2*

Honestly, I’m writing this review because in order to see past medicine usage, the app told me I had to write a review. So, here I am. The app is decent, consistent, but nothing special.

### 2/5 — Usages

*2024-06-14, version 1.2*

Too many restrictions and ads, even this review I had no choice but to write as it won’t let me check. I am going to uninstall this won’t recommend based on my experience

### 5/5 — Great reminder app!

*2023-06-02, version 1.2*

### 5/5 — Great app

### 5/5 — Reminder

*2023-05-25, version 1.2*

This is a great app for people like myself who tend to forget to take their medication. I love it but need to stop disregarding the reminder.

### 4/5 — Pill reminder

*2023-05-17, version 1.2*

Good app

### 2/5 — Not what I expected

*2023-05-14, version 1.2*

I can only comment on the free version but flooded with ads, limited editing of meds once they have been input onto the list, and no way to look back on any previous days history of meds compliance- update- once I’d written a review I could see my previous days compliance but it said I haven’t taken my meds and there was no way to correct that even though I have taken them everyday- you should be able to edit this in the app like all the other med apps I’ve used before- the only reason I downloaded this once was to use the tracker of how many tablets I have left but I don’t think it’s worth it as it’s so un-user friendly

### 5/5 — Great

### 1/5 — Failed at first hurdle

*2023-09-22, version 1.2*

Adding first pills and see I am not able to tell app what time I need to take it. All I can enter is how many times a day, but times are preset in the app! Glad I learned this early on, before investing time into it!!

### 1/5 — Can’t do anything without ads

*2023-07-31, version 1.2*

Can’t even see functions without ads

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2023-01-06, version 1.2*

The pro version would probably be great, however the free version has more pop ups and adds than an adult website in 2002. I just want to remember to take my meds. And no I’m not willing to give you $1.99

### 1/5 — Ads

*2022-10-29, version 1.2*

Way to many ads. Also can’t even skip when you try to

### 1/5 — Nice concept but not user friendly.

*2022-09-26, version 1.2*

Had this worked as described or better I could feel good with giving more stars. But , first, the unpaid version wants you to view and ad every time the app comes up. I expected that and would hope that goes away if paid for. Next it was not very obvious on how to change med times. I eventually figured out. Lastly, I only wanted to go through the list of audible alarms. I selected one it tested fine. The UI on it is sketchy… but works. What does NOT work, or if it does, I could not see it, is how you would return to test out other alarms. I had this happen three times. Each time I had to swipe off the app from running in the background re-enter the app to even use it. 
So I won’t be buying this app. Nice try fellas but not happening.

### 1/5 — Erroneous Virus + Out of Memory popup adds

*2022-08-28, version 1.2*

Launch app start getting erroneous 194 Virus &  MEM Out of Memory msgs + adds to download additional apps to fix…BAD APP BEHAVIOR…

Existing AV app indicates no viruses & have 64GB available memory.

Unable to update taking previous evening pills the following day.

BUT, has intuitive UI to enter Rx list, schedule multiple daily times, and simple ✔️when taken.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2022-06-25, version 1.2*

Does not work

### 1/5 — Worked fine till last update

*2022-04-13, version 1.2*

Last update has removed all medication and although they still show in medical records activate/deactivate does bring them back

### 1/5 — Alert tone problem

*2020-12-18, version 1.2*

Good app simple to track pills taken for the day.

### 5/5 — Works

*2023-10-11, version 1.2*

Works for me

### 5/5 — Good app for tracking medicine

*2023-10-01, version 1.2*

I would have given it a five star anyway, but feel bullied into doing so to get access to the tracking feature on the app.

It says I have to review the app and give it five stars to use it!!!

### 5/5 — Let’s me know if I missed any pills

*2023-08-26, version 1.2*

The app does what is promised and it has a reminder when opening up the app, the daunting question did I take my pill or not. The only issue is on the user is to make a habit of looking at the app. I forgot to log that the took my pill yesterday and I am learning how this function works.

### 5/5 — Great
