### 3/5 — Hmm

*2026-08-20, version 2.609*

Nice to have the option to get birth control online but what’s with the new $5 support fee each time my birth control fits? Feels like a cash grab 😒

### 4/5 — Pharmacy Pickup

*2026-06-25, version 2.587*

I love PP but I’d like to pick up my prescription from my pharmacy but I can’t find where to select that. The app immediately sends me to getting it delivered by mail. Any idea/ help is appreciated!!

### 5/5 — 10/10 Experience!!

*2026-03-16, version 2.550*

i will forever recommend this app as it was so quick, convenient, and affordable!

### 3/5 — Love the idea, app needs serious work

*2026-01-23, version 2.520*

I love the ability to not have to go to a doctor for routine prescriptions I know I need! That said, this app is painful to use and is full of glitches and unintuitive user experiences. I get that PP is operating on a tight budget and hope they can have some pro bono support in making meaningful updates to the app that make it fast, keep it from crashing and logging me out, make messages easy to find, and make it easy to create an account. None of those things are true today.

### 5/5 — Incredibly easy to use

*2026-01-22, version 2.520*

Super helpful for women everywhere. I highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — Thank you!

*2025-12-27, version 2.511*

I feel so lucky to have this app. The ease of getting care is super affirming. I’d love to see some improvements to the app’s design, but overall this is an amazing service.

### 5/5 — 3a.

*2025-12-16, version 2.505*

I love this place very clean and tidy.

### 5/5 — Truly grateful for this service

*2025-11-05, version 2.456*

I’m so thankful for Planned Parenthood Direct. I really needed birth control, but I couldn’t afford it without insurance. Thanks to this service, I was able to get what I needed safely and affordably.

### 5/5 — Great app and service

*2025-10-30, version 2.456*

App works really well and the doctor I met with was really nice and helpful

### 5/5 — Painless process to get much needed meds!

*2025-10-14, version 2.456*

I saved a crazy amount of money (AND TIME!!) by using this app instead of visiting my old doctor to get my birth control.  I currently have no insurance so I was definitely happy to find out about this service, and highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — Helpful & easy to navigate

*2025-10-08, version 2.456*

Updated review: 
Initially had some issues with my card info but the staff is very responsive and attentive. Very essential app that can get you what you need & clear instructions. Thank you PP !!

### 5/5 — very good!!

*2025-10-01, version 2.456*

I really, really like this app and everything with it!! it's very trustworthy and amazing and helpful!! will continue to use it

### 5/5 — Great care

*2025-09-13, version 2.452*

I’ve never used/interacted with planned parenthood before as I had the misconception that it was primarily for women experiencing pregnancy. They actually have quite a few services available that are extremely affordable and helpful. I was able to get an appointment within an hour and a half of downloading and registering to the app. I paid 30.00 for a copay without insurance and got a prescription for birth control. It was via video so I was able to call from the comfort of my home. The doctor was informative and kind. More than what I’ve experienced with any doctors I’ve seen regarding my reproductive health. If you’re looking to get quick and affordable healthcare this is the route to take. I’ll likely never have to see another doctor in my area since the app is so accessible and I’ve found a way to get what I need in a much more efficient way by kinder people.

### 2/5 — Privacy concern

*2025-08-29, version 2.448*

Within less than 10 minutes of me giving them my info my credit card info was stolen💀 They also mysteriously withdrew $2 from my account with no explanation or reason. It seems like it can at least get you what you need but I wouldn’t recommend for privacy reasons.

### 5/5 — THANK YOU

*2025-08-25, version 2.389*

Thank you PP for not only being incredibly convenient as an App but for continuing to meet your community with respect, urgency and great care.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Can’t create account

*2026-06-15, version 2.587*

I’ve been trying to create an account for days and keep getting an internal server error every time I enter my email. I’ve tried different browsers, I’ve tried the desktop version on a laptop (which just leads to a blank page), I’ve tried the app, I’ve reached out for help. I just want to use this app and I can’t even get past the most fundamental stage.

### 1/5 — Crashes every time I try to schedule an appointment

*2026-06-11, version 2.578*

My mom can vibe code a better app than this

### 1/5 — Terrible Customer Service

*2026-05-14, version 2.569*

This has been a pretty decent app for getting birth control, but I recently had an issue where my package was lost and it’s not like this is bathroom supplies from Amazon… this is birth control. I need it to keep my cycle and system on track. I can’t get anyone to help me out with this or get a refund which should be automatic if your MEDICINE doesn’t make it to you on time. I had support tell me to check my post office which I did and no answers from anyone. This is infuriating. The app is terribly laid out, incredibly confusing to navigate and trying to get someone to help you is clearly impossible. Use this service at your own risk.

### 1/5 — No help

*2025-09-27, version 2.456*

No help from the drs on here had to go elsewhere.

### 1/5 — Horribly buggy

*2025-09-25, version 2.456*

Took me an hour to create an account through the app because it kept crashing. Ordered birth control, but the app logged me out and even after changing my password still says ‘invalid credentials’ or ‘this email account does not exist’.

### 1/5 — Over it

*2025-07-10, version 2.389*

When I first downloaded this app it was great for getting antibiotics for UTIs. I get re occurring UTIs and have seen a doctor for this with no answers as to why. Now every time i try to request antibiotics they want me to see a doctor. It’s become super inconvenient.

### 1/5 — Not great experience

*2025-03-23, version 2.387*

Convenient for ordering birth control pill. But the clinicians were very careless. 
Every year the clinicians make mistakes in prescription. This year and last year, the refill date was wrong. So I only got 3 months package once a year according to that. They fixed that, but my pills were significantly delayed..
Not sure if they are the same person for these two times. I will think again if I wanna come back..

### 1/5 — No help

*2025-01-15, version 2.382*

Need help and keeps trying to get me to go pay more money by seeing a doctor instead

### 1/5 — Birth Control Automatic refill

*2024-11-28, version 2.380*

The app signs you out every time you leave. I was signed up for automatic refills without my knowledge likely by my previous clinician. I was sent messages about this but didn’t receive them because the app signs you out. Suddenly I have a $90 charge from planned parenthood for a 3 month birth control pack (which I just ordered the month prior) for a birth control I no longer wish to be on. Since everything processes so fast, I was not given any time to react. First of all, why would I sign up for a monthly refill service if I’m purchasing 3 month packs? The customer should very clearly know if they are signed up for a monthly refill!!!! I’m severely disappointed in this shady practice.

### 1/5 — I do not recommend

*2024-10-04, version 2.375*

I was refilling a birth control prescription and there was an issue. It has been a nightmare to get the issue resolved. Their response time is very slow and I am always messaging someone new each time. Other Telehealth apps for birth control are more convenient and responsive. The cheaper price was not worth the extra hassle. The app is also glitchy sometimes when signing in.

I’ve been getting my birth control for the last three years through this app and it’s life changing. Thank you!

### 5/5 — goated for UTIs

*2026-07-20, version 2.605*

awesome work and fast responses, thank you guys for all you do! 

I did run into some issues with: 
1. app crashing on intake form
2. apple pay doesn’t work- didn’t go through despite trying multiple times with different valid cards. the same visa worked with manual putting in numbers

### 5/5 — Exceptional

*2026-07-15, version 2.598*

I needed birth control quickly. I was absolutely BLOWN FRICKEN AWAY with how quickly and efficiently they got back to me. Thank you for everything.

### 5/5 — Birth control

*2026-05-26, version 2.569*

So my OB couldn’t give me an appointment sooner than a month and a half. I needed a prescription for birth control. I downloaded the app, answered questions and within a few hours, I got a phone call from my pharmacy saying my prescription was ready! Super fast and amazing service. 10/10 recommend!

### 5/5 — super convenient

*2026-05-02, version 2.564*

I got a response right away within the day! I was struggling to contact personnel on another app so this was a breath of fresh air!

### 5/5 — Convenient

*2026-04-18, version 2.563*

Easy and reliable access to birth control. I’ve found other web apps to be up and down in terms of service, but Planned Parenthood has been excellent.

### 5/5 — Convenient and Easy to Use

*2026-04-14, version 2.553*

I love that I can easily order birth control or make appointments through the app without having to wait on the phone for hours to get a hold of someone (iykyk). This has simplified the whole process and I’m so grateful for all they do.

### 5/5 — Always a great help!

*2026-04-13, version 2.553*

I have been using Planned Parenthood Direct for the last 3 years, and it has saved me so much time from having to go in person for a visit. I appreciate Planned Parenthood for always being available to those in need.

### 5/5 — Easy

*2026-03-22, version 2.550*

I like using them to order birth control. Julianne Morgan is very quick and responsive.

### 5/5 — Perfect Clinician

*2026-03-22, version 2.550*

Took literally one day to get a response when I needed one - perfect! Thank you Jessica W. 🩷🫶
