1. 4/5Used for my Dad

   There are a number of medication trackers out there for adults but I needed one that allowed multiple people to track administering meds since he was not able to do it for himself. This allowed all of my Dad’s family caretakers to track things on their own phones and to see what was going on when they were away. It allowed us all to feel connected during his final days. It would have been nice to hide all the parts we weren’t using and just see the medication timers but I was grateful to have something that worked.

2. 5/5Love this app

   UPDATED REVIEW: the support team immediately solved the issue as soon as it was brought to their attention. They were quick and helpful and I appreciated the attention to helping each individual customer. I have 3 sick kids right now, all different ages and weights. We are in the midst of stressful thanksgiving cross country travel trying to get home while all being ill. I was having the HARDEST time keeping track of what time I have each kid their last dose of medicine. This app has helped our family SO MUCH. Thank you for making something to help simplify a stressful time for our family. I like the apps layout and being able to track my children’s medicines and when they took them. It’s very functional and easy to use. I’m thankful for the notifications that give me a heads up that it’s time for my child’s next dose of medicine. Great work you guys!

3. 3/5Its an ok app

   Its an ok app. A little confusing to enter meds but i think i got it. I gave it a 3 because it could be better. For one no gummy option. Second short term makes us add a date. I have meds that haven't been started yet but would like to add as it is as needed. No as needed option. So i cant add a med without a start or started date and creates a countdown for a medication that is as needed. It would also be nice to have a tab that keeps a daily summary of all meds taken through out the day instead of having to click each category. Another thing is its a bit misleading I paid 3.99 because of certain as needed features but when i paid nothing changed. The app was still the same. Pros: it has an ibuprofen and acetaminophen tracker. It also has a symptoms tracker. It could use the extra features above to be better. I recommend to use free version unless you really need to enter symptoms.

4. 1/5Misleading and buggy

   The main reason I downloaded this was for symptom tracking and daily medicine doses. Sadly you have to pay for that feature, which wasn’t easy to understand before downloading. And the only way to figure that out is to go through account creation and share personal info. So then I wanted to delete the account. Button doesn’t work. Literally nothing happens. So now they have my data and I can’t make them delete. The whole thing feels very unsafe when it relates to children and their health data. I’m disappointed. If you’re not willing to pay, don’t download this app. Free is a misnomer when it doesn’t offer basic features without payment. ** update: in their reply, the developer suggests they are not aware there is a bug deleting account. So let me describe it to you. I hit a button that says delete account. It then says are you sure? And I hit a button that says “Yes, Delete Account” and the overlay closes and *nothing happens*. That is a bug. Now you are aware. Don’t gaslight me please.

5. 3/5Could be better, but works

   No way to edit past doses. Sometimes mistakes are made and then I have to end the whole episode and lose all the data. No way to save it. Can’t see all fever temps easily without clicking each past events separately. A graph or display the temps all lined up would be better. Wanted to take a screen shot to send doctor but it tedious and pointless to click on each one. No notifications from short term prescriptions. I get them only for “pain & fever as needed”. Frustrating when trying to keep on a schedule to administer antibiotics. Had to use a regular timer on my phone which defeats the purpose. Would be great if all medications that needed to be given for the day (short term, ongoing and fever medications) all appeared on one screen without having to click between tabs. Don’t see the point of having the child’s gender… I like the ease of being able to time does of fever reducers. Excellent. Also like I can add a caregiver (my spouse) so we can share the responsibility of giving medications on time on 2 different phones. Would be great if this wasn’t just marketed for children. Families. I added myself as a child so I can track my medications and symptoms as well when I’m feeling sick.
