    1. [R1] 3/5 · US Muy útil: Fácil de usar muy útil
    2. [R3] 5/5 · US App review: This app makes refilling my meds much easier. I can do it anytime of the when I remember I need to refill a medication.
    3. [R4] 5/5 · US Worked perfectly: I used this to submit my prescriptions to my local pharmacy. When I opened the app, all of my prescriptions were there. To renew them, all I had to do was to indicate which ones needed to be refilled. The next day I got a message stating that the prescriptions had been filled and that they were ready to be picked up. When I went to the drugstore, everything was ready. Overall,
    4. [R5] 5/5 · US User friendly: I use this app for all my prescriptions. It’s super easy to use. I can keep track of when refills are ready without making any phone calls. It’s just so convenient.
    5. [R9] 5/5 · US Really handy: This is the easiest way to keep track of my prescriptions and when my refills are due. You can order, schedule pick up or delivery. The little things that make life easier.!
    6. [R23] 2/5 · US Good start, major gaps: What’s there is good, especially being able to message the pharmacy and refill meds in the app. However the interface is clunky, and feels unfinished. The only way to see the status of refills that have already been requested is to start the refill workflow again- there’s no place to see at a glance what’s in process. Also even with notifications enabled, the app does not g
    7. [R40] 5/5 · US Offer delivery: Offer delivery on refill page
    8. [R20] 5/5 · US Nice: I like, when it works(90%), to see my Rx info without bothering the pharmacist.
    9. [R22] 5/5 · US Easy to use!!: No phone numbers to dial and menu to punch numbers into. App loads my meds and I just check the box and schedule for pick up.
    10. [R77] 5/5 · US Helpful: This app is dependable and allows me to communicate with my pharmacist without interrupting their day with phone calls. Plus I can order any time whether they are open or not. Very convenient.
    11. [R2] 2/5 · US App is not accurate: It tells you that medications are ready for pick up and you travel to the pharmacy and nothing is ready. It’s never accurate. And this this about getting meds from the warehouse doesn’t work for me.
    12. [R26] 3/5 · US This app could be great: This app never sends me notifications that my meds are done. I have to open up the messages and see if they have seen filled. It would be great to get a text message or if there was any sort of notification marker on the app anyway to show that there was any sort update in status to remind me to check on them. I feel like that's one purpose of this app that's is really lac
    13. [R42] 4/5 · US Notifications: I don’t receive notifications the pharmacy has messaged me.
    14. [R71] 5/5 · US 100 % recommended: Hassle free. So easy to ask for refills of my maintenance medications and notifies me whenever the refills are ready to pick up
    15. [R10] 1/5 · US Needs Major Updates !!: Update 7/12/26 : App now glitches and will not allow sign ins of any kind. Have deleted app and reinstalled twice no fix. This app is just getting worse… (Original Post) App does not allow patients to be able to see prescriptions being filled. App also does not allow patient’s to check on delivery times. And if a prescription shows up on your doorstep and you had no way of
    16. [R21] 1/5 · US Can’t monitor Deliver: Can’t monitor delivers go to website says 404
    17. [R242] 1/5 · US Schedule delivery: I have never had the delivery actually go threw the system. Always shows as pick up when I call them
    18. [R11] 1/5 · US Glitch galore: Horrible app that has continuous issues not launching. Constantly making you update password and is notoriously unreliable when it comes to updating info from pharmacy. I constantly plead with my pharmacy to find a new online app.
    19. [R14] 1/5 · US Horrible app: This app is terrible. It doesn’t communicate correctly with the pharmacies. It made me change my password and receipt terms, and then making me register again, but then after trying next button won’t do anything. Terrible design flaws.
    20. [R24] 5/5 · US Very helpful but: The app makes refilling my medication very easy but as I write this the app doesn’t load It’s stuck on the loading screen and just has the pill bouncing as if it’s loading I’ve tried deleting it, restarting my phone, giving the app full access to everything and everything I can think of
    21. [R25] 1/5 · US Horrible / Worthless: How this app has a 4.7 star rating is beyond me! It’s worthless ! It loses my medication list over and over again. Sick of it.
    22. [R28] 2/5 · US Active meds: I hate that meds drop off the screen as soon as you fill the last refill. It’s easy to miss meds that I need to be on routinely.
    23. [R32] 3/5 · US Could be improved: The app needs to allow the ability to remove medications that are no longer being used so they no longer appear in the medication list
    24. [R33] 3/5 · US Disappear: Wish scrips with no refills wouldn’t disappear. Leads me to forget to ask Dr. for refill.
