  1. 5/5So helpful!!

    I got this app when our elderly greyhound broke her leg. We had her surgery completed and she came home with tons of medications that were administered at various times and doses. This was terrifying to me being that I can barely remember to take a multivitamin. This made the process of scheduling and reminding me to give her the medication on time (and even log it if I wasn’t on time) a breeze. I’m so thankful to have found this right when I needed it most. It will even mimic a call to remind you. Genius! Once the development of this app progresses, it would be amazing to add notes on medication symptoms, reactions, dosage, and reasons for skipping a dose to the list. (And changing dosage time if we need to!!) This would be helpful to share with the vet to provide general patterns of behavior and progress with the medications. Either way, I’m over the moon with this and will recommend it to everyone I know-including the surgeon who performed her surgery for their patrons. Thanks so much for this app and I’ll be hanging onto it for the future.

  2. 5/5Medication

    I always forget to take my medication nightly since I have SADS (seasonal depression) so it only occurs for a few months so my brain isn't use to taking it nightly. This app makes sure you get your medications in every single time. I really like the feature where it keeps on notifying you until you physically go on the app and click "take" so you remember to take your medication. I also like the feature where it calls you to remind and there's cute little animals noises. I love the cute animals and I like how free this is and how easy and very simple it is. I highly recommend using this app for medications!!! You can also do all of your medication if you have multiple and you can set what time you need to be reminded everyday. Very great app and very helpful for people have a lot going on and forget about taking their medications!! 😁

  3. 5/5Perfect, Simple, FREE!

    It's so, so, so, SO nice to find an app that does exactly what it says on the tin. I've had so many that hide basic features behind a paywall, and having an app that doesn't even *have* a paywall is such a nice change of pace. The design is cute, the call function is extremely useful, the skip function is great, and I love that it records exactly when you take a medication so, in case you're late, you still know how much time has passed so that you know you're in the right window. If I had to suggest anything to add, it would be an extra page with 'timers': you input a medication and how long you have to wait before you can take it again, then when you log that you've taken that med it starts running the clock down until it would be available again. That said, it isn't hard to do that math yourself, and I still find this pill calendar extremely useful as-is.

  4. 5/5Love the app, but poor recent update

    Update to my previous: Max was updated and Some problems were fixed and I was considering 5 stars except now Star rating has dropped to 4. I don’t like one major change. It insists on running in the background. It never had an issue before. I don’t like keeping apps open. I see no purpose for it except waste battery or track someone. Reminders drive me crazy. I have a tendency to ignore them even though I know I shouldn’t. Medication is very important. Using Max usually makes it fun to actually heed the notification. Here’s the problem: it screws up often. Not enough to delete it, but it is a problem. It’s supposed to cheer and clap when you hit the “take” button. It’ll work and then it’ll stop for quite a while then it just keeps continuing this path. Next if you don’t go in and hit “take” and try to ignore the reminder, it will call you and bark. I chose the dog Max. I don’t know if the other ones make their own respective sounds. The phone call is a choice that I like a lot. It’s fun to have a dog call you, it absolutely gets me to take what I need to. I usually try to not let it get that far. For those of you, who’s time zone changes twice a year, this app does not change automatically and you need to go in and make the corrections yourself. When Apple tells you that you need to update an app, it does not work well with this app always. You have to delete it and reinstall, which of course means you have to re-add your medication and everything concerning them back in again. That usually fixes the problem. I said usually. Keyword as it doesn’t always. Sometimes you just have to wait for a couple days and delete reinstall again. On occasion you have to wait for the next update. In spite of the issues, I still give this app a four star rating. that’s how much I like it. If they ever get this back-and-forth notification issue fixed. I will come back in and raise it to five star.

  5. 5/55 stars from a type 1 diabetic

    I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in January. For those that don’t know it’s an autoimmune disease that was caused with higher than average luck (sarcasm). Getting used to this disease after 22 years of normalcy has been…something to say the least. The Apple medications app was great for simple medication reminders, but I take two types of insulin. One once a day and the other with every meal. Both are a requirement but the once a day I take a night and can easily forget unless I have a reminder. That’s where this app comes in. I would sleep through my medication reminders often leading to me missing my mandatory doses. This app is amazing because it actually calls me and that wakes me up out of my sleep to take my insulin. Amazing app. And with all the costs of being a diabetic it’s great that this app is free. One less thing to pay for.

[Your records stay safe] We also made sure your history stays put, even if something hiccups while the app is opening. Max is here with you.
