Love it

I have to use eye drops at 3 different times throughout the day. This is the best reminder app there is. I tried a few others but this is easiest to set up and most intuitive.

genuinely no complaints

i actually really love this app !!! it's so helpful for my medications, and since i've been using it these past few days, i've barely missed any of my medications !!! i haven't gotten any ads, and the reminders are persistent, but not annoying
i have a lot of medication to keep track of, so this is PERFECT for me !!!
thank you so much to the developers !!! for the first time ever, i'm actually taking all of my medications pretty consistently and on schedule :3 my only wish is that you could set the amount of times it reminds you to take the pill, because i wish it could be more than 3 !!

And if Pillbug continues to work well for you, we’d be so grateful if you’d consider updating your rating 💛🐞

Love it!

This app is wonderful and super helpful. Not only with the reminders but with proof that I took my medication so I don’t have to worry the next day!

Thank you so much for your kind words. We really appreciate you taking the time to share this! 😊 We’re especially glad to hear that both the reminders and the ability to confirm you’ve taken your medication are helping give you peace of mind, that’s exactly what Pillbug is designed for. If you ever have ideas for features or ways we can make the app even better, we’d love to hear from you!

Super cute!

This app is super cute, and genuinely helpful. I really like that it has a scanning option for recording your meds, and I really really like that it reminds you big doesn’t feel obnoxious or instructive (like my regular alarms). Honestly just the banner on my home screen is enough to make me go take my meds- I don’t want Pillbug to be disappointed in me haha

Thank you so much for this—your review made our day! 😊 We put a lot of thought into making Pillbug feel supportive (not pushy), so it’s amazing to hear that the reminders, and even just the banner - are enough to nudge you without feeling annoying. That balance is exactly what Pillbug was going for :) And we love that you’re enjoying the scan feature too, it’s one of our favorites! Don’t worry, Pillbug is always cheering you on, never disappointed 💛🐞

It is wonderful!!

An amazing little app that is such a help with meditation tracking!! Thank You!!

I easily forgot until this app!

So far I LOVE IT! I am horrible at remembering my medications. I tend to tell myself “I should take my meds” and then proceeds to get distracted. I really like the layout of the app and especially the fact I can invite someone to join my tracking journey. It allows me to have a second pair of eyes in case I forgot and it reassures my spouse I’m on top of everything. (They used to be my reminder now and they can just relax!). The scan the label option is really handy because it makes me take action, which helps following through taking the medication as well as verifies my second guessing mind. Such a great app

Thank you so much for this lovely review! I'm so glad to hear Pillbug is helping you remember to take your meds! btw we are about to release a "romantic sharing" option for Valentines day! Look out for it! It'll make sharing with your spouse even more fun :)

Pillbug is saving me!

I’ve always hated the supplements I had to take, and as someone who’s forgetful to begin with, not wanting to take them made it even easier for me to forget them. Pillbug genuinely helps so much, because of the streaks, which make me actually feel pushed to want to take my supplements, and the app is cute, but not overwhelming or “too much” or distracting. The organization is great, and the ease of adding, deleting and the option of PAUSING is wonderful. Thank you, Pillbug!!

The perfect medication reminder app

The app is easy to use. All the medications that I use are on the app. I love that the medications are
alphabetically listed. I love that I have the choice to choose what days and times I take my meds. I love that I can use speech to text. I love that I can share this app with
others of my choosing.
I would like the alarm to last longer than just a couple of beeps .

Thank you so much for your review! We are so happy you are enjoying Pillbug! We do have choices of alarms and some are longer than others. Please check out the "Premium features" under the crown icon on the top right. They are free when you fill out our survey.

Thank You!!

For the first time in my life I have meds I have to remember! I got so frustrated with the common “don’t forget” tactics people suggested. Of course I set phone alarms but those can be snoozed and I get so easily distracted by the time the alarm goes off again I’m wondering “wait 
 did I take the meds?? Or am I just thinking I did bc the alarm went off once already
” I needed a visual representation of each pilled logged with push reminders! Every other med reminder app is extremely clinical and boring which didn’t encourage me to log. This app is perfect. It’s cute so it’s memorable. And I can SEE that I logged each pill even when my days blend together. Haven’t missed a pill or doubted my memory of taking one since I got this app!!

We completely understand how the days can blend together—that’s exactly why we created Pillbug, and we’re so glad it’s helpful for you. Stay tuned for more updates; we have more exciting features in the works!

Works well

Great little app to remind you to take your pills. Just remember to turn on the notifications, so when you do forget, you are reminded. You can scan the bar code or label when you take them, which I found very helpful.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for writing our first App Store review! We are so glad you are enjoying Pillbug! We actually just made some changes to the scanning based on feedback from early app testers. Now you can scan the label of your medication/supplement (not the barcode) or log it without scanning. Some medications don't have barcodes and some have more than one, so it was easier to stick with the label. If you have any comments or more suggestions we are all ears!
