1. [R9] Birth Control Pill Reminder 3/5 · GB Persistent notifications not persistent: I didn’t take my pill yesterday but the reminder had already dropped off. I didn’t clear it. Why did it disappear?
2. [R10] Birth Control Pill Reminder 1/5 · US Wack: Alarm doesn’t work
3. [R13] Birth Control Pill Reminder 1/5 · US Never worked.: Let me start by saying that I DID have my push notifications enabled and all settings correctly configured! However, this app never worked the way I needed it to: as a reminder to take my pill!!! I am a very forgetful person so a reminder is an absolute necessity. I could go in and mark my pill as taken, so that portion of the app worked, but it never reminded me. No alarm went off,
4. [R16] Birth Control Pill Reminder 1/5 · US waste of time: don’t download download the M.P one this one is horrible doesn’t even have an alarm to alert you .. you have to upgrade to premium to get the alarm feature
5. [R1] Birth Control Pill Reminder 1/5 · US Pay to use: Horrible, you have to pay to even change the time of your alarm! At this point, just use your built in calendar.
6. [R6] Birth Control Pill Reminder 3/5 · US Alarm: This is a great app but I just wish it had a feature to change the alarm time for each day. For instance, I would like to set the alarm for 6:30am Mon-Fri and then 9:00am on the weekends. Just a thought. Thanks!
7. [R12] Birth Control Pill Reminder 3/5 · GB Used to be great but you now have to pay for better features: They used to be a function where if you had accidentally clicked that you had taken your medication then you could undo this and reset the reminder for later in the day. They changed this and moved this functionality to the paid version which is putting profit before people’s health and making it more likely that you would accidentally
8. [R15] Birth Control Pill Reminder 3/5 · GB Not free snooze reminder: It could have the snooze reminder for free as this way it’s doing half the job reminding you.
9. [R7] Birth Control Pill Reminder 1/5 · US NEGATIVE STARS: I set it up and while setting it up it CRASHED my phone. It shut it down entirely as if my phone died, when I had almost full battery. DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!! DO NOT USE!!!!
10. [R24] Birth Control Pill Reminder 4/5 · US Has everything you need with the purchased feature: I paid for the upgrade and it was worth it. Just a couple bucks which is no big deal for how important this is. The app works great and has great features so if you are considering the upgrade, it’s worth it. The only bug I have noticed is related to time changes when I am traveling through different time zones. You can manually change the remin
11. [R33] Birth Control Pill Reminder 1/5 · US Doesn’t work: I set it to remind me every 21 days. Did not work. Would only recognize every 28 days. Reminding me of the correct day is it’s only function and it cannot do that? Pretty bad!
12. [R45] Birth Control Pill Reminder 2/5 · US Calendar won’t set right: I love the set up of this app. It’s easy, simple, and doesn’t have all that extra, useless crap that most have. The problem I’m having with it though is that it won’t set to the specific days I take my pills. I did the custom setting and it still puts too many days even though that’s how many active pills I take and the placebo pills would start on a random day even thoug
13. [R4] Birth Control Pill Reminder 2/5 · US Colors aren’t easily legible: Both color schemes rely on contrast to differentiate and highlight days, but the shades are too similar. It needs a more visually accessible palette with options other than pink and blue.
14. [R36] Birth Control Pill Reminder 5/5 · US Simple and Effective: I love this app, and mainly use it for the reminders feature. The only thing I would change would be having more options for the Theme colour. There’s only pink or blue and they’re very bright and attention grabbing, I wish there was a simple black or something.
15. [R44] Birth Control Pill Reminder 4/5 · US The color of pills: I like this app alot and when I got the app the pill color matched right up with my pills but then when I got a new phone all the pills changed to pink can you please change it was 3 weeks were pink and the last week was brown it made to much easier to tell when the last week was now they all look the same when I look at my app thanks
16. [R50] Birth Control Pill Reminder 5/5 · US App sounds and themes: Who ever made this app could of added better and more sounds for the alarm and add cool themes for it too
17. [R3] Birth Control Pill Reminder 3/5 · US Updates defeat the purpose: I swear this app requires updates once a month (I don’t get it, it’s a single-task calendar? Like my bank app only needs updates a few times a year, what is causing this to require such constant revision?) and kind of fails to serve its purpose if you don’t have auto-update for your apps. I’m usually reminding myself to update the app so that it updates me on what I alr
18. [R26] Birth Control Pill Reminder 5/5 · US Great - But I need more functions: I love the pill reminder. Simple and efficient! But I would even get more use out of it, if developers would include (simple addl features): 1. Customizable Cycle available (no pause), 2. Prescription Refill Reminder 3. To add patch ( not either or … some people use the app not only for contraceptive but for hormonal medication of all kinds, using patches AND pil
19. [R43] Birth Control Pill Reminder 1/5 · US Review: You should make alarm more noticeable and be able to have interactions between your pill and your period make it a period and pill tracker .
20. [R46] Birth Control Pill Reminder 5/5 · US Amazing! Keeps me accountable 😊💖: I love this app! It sends out daily reminders to take your birth control and to refill your pack. You can even make notes for each day which is great way to journal or to just jot down some notes about your health, birth control, or symptoms. Suggestions: One suggestion would be if the app could make a birth control pill pack and we can keep track like this as o
21. [R52] Flo Cycle & Period Tracker 5/5 · US Go with the FLO!: Love Flow so much, been using it for years and have to say never failed me. Everything is tracked and predictions and advice with different symptoms about womanhood. Even tracked my pregnancy and symptoms with that. Private anonymous relatable posts! It’s a handy app. I got a discount for premium and I’m loving it! This is the number one period tracker and you should get it!
22. [R55] Flo Cycle & Period Tracker 5/5 · US THIS APP IS AMAZING: I like how this app is very accurate and helps keep track of all things that our body goes through monthly.
23. [R61] Flo Cycle & Period Tracker 4/5 · US Nice app: Very good for logging my period, lists symptoms well and clearly. Don’t like that I have to pay money to know more symptoms though. Seems a bit excessive.
24. [R64] Flo Cycle & Period Tracker 5/5 · US Menopausia: Me ayuda mucho por la premenopausia a conocer más los síntomas y con consejos para llevar mejor esta etapa
25. [R68] Period Tracker Period Calendar 5/5 · US .: Great App , Not Only is it Accurate And informative But it’s Free!!
26. [R70] Period Tracker Period Calendar 5/5 · US Five stars: So this app predict my period perfectly the exact day. It’s also helping me with my acne problem, so it’s it just blew my mind.
27. [R72] Period Tracker Period Calendar 5/5 · US Period tracker: The most helpful app it tells me when it happens and all that
28. [R73] Period Tracker Period Calendar 5/5 · US Period: I love thish app so much like you get to now when you going to get your period
29. [R80] Natural Cycles Fertility App 5/5 · US Love it: I’ve been using Natural Cycles for two months now, and I absolutely love it! Before using it, I didn’t really understand my cycle or know how to recognize what my body was telling me. Now I feel like I’m finally getting to know my body. So far, I haven’t gotten pregnant 🤣, and the app has helped me better understand my fertile days, my temperature patterns, and my cycle overall. It’s mad
30. [R86] Natural Cycles Fertility App 5/5 · US This app has been so helpful!! :): I have loved using this app for over a year now! It is so great for natural family planning!☺️ It has truly helped me get to learn more about my cycle and how my body works!
31. [R89] Natural Cycles Fertility App 5/5 · US Skeptical at first: I’ve been watching this app for several years now and haven’t used it yet. After life changes I decided it was time. It not only predicted exactly when I would ovulate (I can feel my ovulation) but it also predicted the exact day my period would come. It had a different day than apple health had predicted and I’ve been using Apple tracking for many years. Natural cycles said T
32. [R94] Spot On Period Tracker 5/5 · US Best app so far!: I have tried many tracking apps, most of them sucked you i had to pay to get the things i wanted. This is a lifesaver
33. [R97] Spot On Period Tracker 4/5 · US Great app that I can trust: I love this app to replace my old one but I do miss the extra customization and tons of moods, emotions, body, choices etc (it also had levels of pain/emotion/etc) my old one had and with a big calendar and a part to jot notes down daily. wish this had more but it's still great
34. [R100] Spot On Period Tracker 4/5 · US Fix Predictions + Add Text?: Spot on has been great and I would trust PP with my data before any other developer! The only issues I have with the app is that the predictor function is days off always and never seems to recalibrate. As a design note, I also thing it would be helpful to have a journal like function on the calendar where in addition to logging symptoms people could write in about t
35. [R108] Max 5/5 · US Adorable program: The phone call reminder is ingenious.
36. [R111] 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.
37. [R114] 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!!!
38. [R117] Max 5/5 · US Fav med reminder: I have to take pills every 1.5 hours and this has been the only app that actually helps me not miss a dose!
39. [R51] Flo Cycle & Period Tracker 1/5 · US Costly: I’ve used this app for awhile and now that the subscription price has gone up it’s ridiculous. Not to mention keeping it free means they limit all access to the app now. Which it used to not be like that. It was more if you wanted more features than the regular ones then you could upgrade to premium, now you cannot do anything on the app without being a premium member. I’m extremely disapp
40. [R53] Flo Cycle & Period Tracker 3/5 · US WHO NEEDS ADS WHEN THEY ASK FOR SUBS?: dead serious. There should be no way in hell ANY time i hop on that app i have to press X to a subscription 5 TIMES WITHIN 30 SECONDS. ITS INSANE. STOP IT.
41. [R57] Flo Cycle & Period Tracker 2/5 · US money grab: works for tracking your period, but everything they advertise, you have to pay for, like any other app. basically a calendar you could make yourself, but with the usual manipulative scamming methods every other app uses😽 no benefits
42. [R59] Flo Cycle & Period Tracker 3/5 · US Subscription: They push the subscription SO hard. You can’t even click the back button without it being shoved down your throat. (that’s what she said).
43. [R79] Natural Cycles Fertility App 1/5 · US Misleading subscription cancellation: I tried canceling my subscription several months ago through apple subscriptions, but was just charged an annual fee anyway. So after digging some more, I found out you have to cancel through their app. Getting a hold of anyone in customer service is impossible. They just scammed me out of $159.99. So on top of being perimenopausal and my chances of conceiving
44. [R85] Natural Cycles Fertility App 2/5 · US Bring back cycle day on calendar: Please update to be able to clearly see cycle day when clicking on future dates on the calendar like we used to see. The 2 stars is because recent updates to the app have made it LESS user friendly. More buttons to do the same thing we used to do with fewer buttons. Also the yearly subscription price is astronomical- I have been using this app for almost 5 years
45. [R87] Natural Cycles Fertility App 3/5 · US Too expensive now: I’ve been using this app for YEARS and fell in love with it. Now it’s wayy too expensive and I refuse to go from paying the $84/year to a WHOPPING $139 I believe?! So so sad to leave this app behind but something like this should be affordable or at least have affordable options. Was nice while it lasted!
46. [R113] Max 1/5 · US Cute characters but the ADS!!: The ads backlog the checking off of each medication, and almost every time I have to restart the app to check off the next one. My dog takes multiple medications daily, so it’s important that I can check off these things with ease, without the ad just freezing the page where Max is “cheering”. Too bad because I love how customizable this is.
47. [R118] Max 3/5 · US Ads: How nice it would be if google lead services would stop. Would have given app 5 stars. Don’t see a way to stop the ads
48. [R96] Spot On Period Tracker 2/5 · US Not so good results: I’ve been using this app for the past 4 years! At first the first 2 years was good but after that everything started to be unreliable! The period tracker does not track the way it needs to be tracking, even if I update my information it’s not even 60% right! I like it but I’m ready for a new change!
49. [R99] Spot On Period Tracker 1/5 · US Worst period tracker I’ve used: I’ve literally never written an app review before but the frustration of using this app has pushed me to finally do so. The app is terrible at predicting when your period actually starts unlike other period trackers I’ve used. It always ends up tricking me into thinking that my period is late which has given me a lot of anxiety over the past few years that I’ve used
50. [R102] Spot On Period Tracker 1/5 · US Used to work great: The app used to work great, but over the last few months the tracking feature has been inaccurate and difficult to adjust. I’m strongly considering switching to a different period tracker. Another thing, the developers of the app suggest that folks who leave negative reviews here use the “contact support” button on the account page but when I tried to do that the button straigh
