Great.

14 years later and this app is still working. Amazing.

Still the best.

The best feature is the bagging reminder. Needed for someone who forgets. But it just works. You set the schedule, you can input if you skip/miss meds, there's no subscription, no email list, no ads. It just works. I just need this app to be updated for at least iOS 18, so I know it'll still work for the next few years. But there's no better medication app.

Great app!

I have been using this app for years. The older I get, the more I appreciate it.

No available help

I have used the app for at least 15 years. I have requested help from the developer using the email provided three times. I have never had a response. The last update was seven years ago. There is no privacy policy. I am switching apps.

Still rocking iOS18 iPhone 16 Pro

Been using for so long I can’t remember and works fantastic! I wish there were some visual updates, but works very nicely. Hopefully dev will resume work! 5 out 5!
