1. [R10] Medisafe Medication Management 1/5 · US Was very useful but not now: I have used the app for years and now it crashes all the time. It takes up to 30 attempts to open it. Contacted them and zero fixes but they told me they would fix it.
2. [R19] Medisafe Medication Management 1/5 · US Very glitchy and bugged: Pages often “bounce” glitch out several times and app is unresponsive a lot. Not worth the time or effort. This really is shoddy work by the devs as it’s always done this for me across different devices
3. [R24] Medisafe Medication Management 3/5 · US Great app, but there are glitches right now.: I depend on this app multiple times a day to keep track of the many meds I’m required to take. This app helps me organize, document, and keep track of everything. Unfortunately, right now there is a glitch where the Home Screen continuously blanks out and has to reset itself numerous times before finally bringing up the page to view. But as soon as yo
4. [R30] Medisafe Medication Management 3/5 · US Difficult to scroll: This is an excellent app for listing, reminding and checking meds. The problem is that is doesn’t like to scroll. It often gets “stuck.” Also, opening an article just leads to the app going back to the main article page. It’s very frustrating. Closing and reopening the app helps with the scrolling problem, but only for that one time. Please take a look at this and try to fix
5. [R28] Medisafe Medication Management 1/5 · US Too difficult now: I’ve used this app for several years - it was free and very helpful and relatively simple. Now it costs $60 yr, and I can’t even navigate your transition. Very sad to lose this reminder.
6. [R39] Medisafe Medication Management 3/5 · US Needs subscription: This used to be free to use but now needs a subscription. Other downsides include that the Ui is not that intuitive, especially going back to do a dose that is say weekly but you took on a diffeeent day.
7. [R40] Medisafe Medication Management 1/5 · US Paid: How exactly is it fair that this app is paid only now? We can’t even access our data to have the option to leave because this big notification that requires payment shows up when trying to open the app. I’m not paying you to set a reminder for my medication. This app is trash to me now.
8. [R49] Medisafe Medication Management 1/5 · US Use to be free: It seems everyone wants a subscription including this app which hasn't changed in the years I've been using it.
9. [R9] Medisafe Medication Management 3/5 · US Reminder sound: Reminder sound not loud enough. Would be more effective if alerts were continuous until user responds. Or provide that option.
10. [R13] Medisafe Medication Management 1/5 · US App is broken: The app reminds you every 10 minutes to take a schedules dose. There is no way to change the time interval. So if are busy and can’t acknowledge the reminder, you could have a dozen or more reminders in less than an hour. It wastes battery life. Still not fixed.
11. [R16] Medisafe Medication Management 2/5 · US Love the app, issue with notifications: I’ve used Medisafe for years on Android, but now I have no control over the notifs. And it does this thing, where it notifies three times in 10 minute intervals, after med time. And this is driving me insane. It seems hard coded? How can I make it stop??
12. [R22] Medisafe Medication Management 1/5 · US Every other day option doesn’t work: I select “every other day” and the app still puts the reminder for every day. Uninstalled
13. [R3] Medisafe Medication Management 3/5 · US Not connecting to watch: Message on watch says connection not reachable. Was working. Checked everything on watch and phone, updates, etc. It’s a must have for me.
14. [R12] Medisafe Medication Management 3/5 · US Stopped syncing: This app I was worked great until about a couple years ago and no matter what I do it Will not sync correctly with my Apple Watch. It shows medicine that I no longer take. And the ones that I do take if I put I take them it does not sync it to my Medisafe on my iPhone.
15. [R27] Medisafe Medication Management 3/5 · US App is great, tiny caveat (UX): Sponsored section (For You) took over my app and blasted me with HIV information because of a previous Truvada prescription for about a month; very invasive and unnecessary. App is selling data; not sure how much of it is privacy protected but would not put anything that's personally identifying in here. Opt-out is not obvious but possible. App works great otherwise
16. [R31] Medisafe Medication Management 1/5 · US If you like your data being illegally sold…: You’ll love Medisafe!
17. [R36] Medisafe Medication Management 3/5 · US Used to love it: I’m about ready to uninstall this app. It has so much bloat of unnecessary stuff. And lately, every time I open it, it is on a tab with stuff about HIV meds which I don’t take, and not my pill box. I already switched my partner to a different, simple app. I wanted to keep mine on this so I could identify the different ring tones. There is only one thing this app does sligh
18. [R1] Medisafe Medication Management 2/5 · US Unable to edit: Once a med is entered and saved it is not possible to change the times of dose. The drop down edit menu does not have many options. Cataract surgery eye drop reminders are not recommended with this app. The three ocular drop meds are combined into one bottle now. It is not offered in the selections of eye drop drugs. The drops for each eye overlap as they start within two weeks of
19. [R6] Medisafe Medication Management 3/5 · US Not terribly impressed: This works fine for what functions it does offer. But I feel like a big thing that’s missing is the ability to set medications for certain hourly intervals. Like if I take Tylenol at 1, I should be able to automatically set the app to remind me to take it at 7/after 6 hours
20. [R15] Medisafe Medication Management 3/5 · US Need to be able to edit dosage when using mg/ml: When trying to add new medications and edit their strength, we need a better editing tool in the mg/ml feature. As of right now there is no way to dictate if the dosage is something like “4mg(5ml)” because the only option is to enter numbers and periods when editing the strength, there is no ability to add a dash (/) in order to show what the actual
21. [R11] Medisafe Medication Management 4/5 · US Great app: Wonderful app. Does the reminders very well and it has been extremely helpful. I had to switch to a new device and lost my paid subscription. But it happens. Otherwise it is wonderful even for the Free version of the app.
22. [R42] Medisafe Medication Management 3/5 · US It’s GONE!: Medisafe updated and my app is now completely empty! I click on it and get a blank screen. I don’t understand. It’s been good until the update prior to this one. It became glitchy and I had to enter my medication as being taken more than once. The “fix” was the last update. Now, no matter if I click on it from the app library, the page on my iPhone, or the App Store, there’s nothing b
23. [R119] Pill Reminder MyTherapy 1/5 · US Frustrating.: Why does this app keep nuking my current medications? It changes them so when I go to add a dose after an update, that medicine is nowhere to be found. I’m young and in IT, I know my way around an app but this is frustrating.
24. [R4] Medisafe Medication Management 2/5 · US Only saves 30 days history: I wish I’d known before I committed to this app that it only stores the last 30 days of history. I’ve been using it to track symptoms and medications for our cat. We showed up at the vet yesterday and found that I couldn’t see the history since the last time we brought him in. There were also a few minor glitches that I was willing to overlook because it had the feature
25. [R55] NimbleRx 5/5 · US Convenient: It’s so convenient for me. I’ve used other pharmacies and I’ve had so many problems so many problems but with this Pharmacy, it’s in easy, convenient, and it even delivers to my home. I can even pay over the phone when they bring my medications. It’s a win-win for me.
26. [R59] NimbleRx 5/5 · US Super Helpful: This helps keep track of my next dosage without me having to keep up with it. Easy to request and then get on with my day. I can’t say enough good things about it!!
27. [R61] NimbleRx 5/5 · US Love this App ♥️: I was skeptical about using an app for my medication. This has been a game changer for my ADHD self 😂
28. [R63] NimbleRx 5/5 · US So easy: I can't believe how easy that was.
29. [R66] Drugs.com Medication Guide 5/5 · US Love this app: As a medical assistant, this app is wonderful. When you have patience come in and they have something at the bottom of their purse, but they don’t know what it is. It’s wonderful and helpful to find out what it is.
30. [R72] Drugs.com Medication Guide 5/5 · US Excellent app: Drugs.com has been my go to app to keep my extensive medical history all in one place. I have tried many but this is the best app I have used!
31. [R76] Drugs.com Medication Guide 5/5 · US Awesome: This app is exactly what I needed. It helps me with my medications. I use it frequently to add or remove my medications. When going to a doctor and they need me to give them my medications it is always on my phone so I can give them an accurate account. It can also be printed out. You can also add each of your family’s meds. Highly recommend.
32. [R80] Hero 5/5 · US Pill hero: If it wasn’t for Hero, I would never have taken my medication on time and I’m glad there a kind of a machine that help people when they can’t remember if they took there pills on time.
33. [R81] Hero 3/5 · US Great dispenser: Have had this for several years, great dispenser for dementia patients. That said, the monthly cost keeps going up and I’m now tired of the ads that pop up every time I open the app. I pay for this service, why do I have to scroll ads? Returning unit and saving $45 a month. ($540 a year)
34. [R83] Hero 5/5 · US Life saver: Don’t know what my mom would do without this machine! It’s saved both of us.
35. [R89] Hero 5/5 · US For my brother with vascular dementia.: Before having the hero, his pills where in a pill box where he’s medication didn’t fit. It was a headache weekly, trying to figure how to make it easier. Saw it on Facebook n got just right on it , 3 yrs now n you have made my life so easy. Have a problem , they are there to help. they do say to recommend them n you get free subscription, well only thing
36. [R94] Max 5/5 · US Adorable program: The phone call reminder is ingenious.
37. [R97] Max 5/5 · US The best: I’ve always struggled with taking my meds. This app just makes it so much easier, there is something about the animal noises that make it different than an alarm, and the calling reminder is great.
38. [R100] Max 5/5 · US Wonderful!!: I don't usually write reviews but I wanted to give this app its kudos. I love it!! I struggle with memory issues, and this app has made meditation management so much easier! I personally love the call reminder, I've never seen it in any other app before and it's helped me so much. Thank you max!!!
39. [R108] Pill Reminder MyTherapy 5/5 · US Perfect for every other day meds: I tried to keep track of my medication intake with calendar invites and that was not sustainable and I missed a couple days. Finding this app has been a game changer! I’m able to set the frequency of when I take it, I’m able to set a time and a reminder notification (so I don’t keep forgetting), and I’m able to track my medication inventory so I know when to call
40. [R111] Pill Reminder MyTherapy 4/5 · US Works Well: Convenient way to track multiple drugs. If you have a need to be reminded of several medications during the day this is the way to do it. It can be very powerful helping to remind you of your inventory. It is free
41. [R114] Pill Reminder MyTherapy 4/5 · US Effective app: For some reason this is the one app that gets me to do my medication logs, mood/symptom checks, etc. The biggest problem I have with it is that it’s ugly but that’s personal preference. It would also be nice to be able to do custom activity names, which seems like it would be pretty easy to implement. Or maybe it just needs to be more apparent if it’s there already.
42. [R117] Pill Reminder MyTherapy 5/5 · US Very helpful: I was originally looking for a way to easily track mood shifts as well as the meds I take. In my search I found this. It’s been super helpful just for the meds part. Easy to configure and provides excellent reminders.
