Pill Reminder - All in One 12+

Much nicer layout and user interface than all the others I tried. Simple and easy to track. Nice icons. Lovely big tick next to the med. I have two meds every day, one twice a week, then I was on another one temporarily first every hour day and night, then six times a day, then every 4 hours. It copes brilliantly. You can set up the whole schedule easily, saying “do this schedule for x days, then switch to this, then that”. I set all the reminders but also set alarms on my clock app in case, as I Have to be 100% compliant. The reminders didn’t always go off. Maybe competing with the clock app alarm? Don’t know why. The reminders are more reliable now it’s only every 3 hours. Also pops up on the watch, where you can tick the box. I tried about 5 apps simultaneously and they each do it slightly differently. Liked this one the most, by far after using them all in parallel for nearly a week. (next best for me was by Medisafe and that interface may be preferable if you have lots of different meds to take at one time or have someone monitored, but the sound reminder on that one - more fun choices- also went off only sporadically).

Very good helpful app.
One suggestion would be that when I tick to take my meds it logs the time I’ve taken them. This would be handy for me as I have to take meds at set times per day and I have to fast either side of taking them so I can loose track of when I should be taking the next dose or when I can eat a meal.
Also, I’ve completed a 12 month course of meds and now the only way I can stop getting notifications would be to delete the meds, this deletes all my meds history which I would like to keep as a point of reference!

I bought this app a couple of days ago to monitor both my regular tablets and as needed tablets. It is a good app providing you are regularly taking medication on a schedule.

When it come to refills, there are no options for the as needed’s. This is a pain if, like me, you’re on pain killers and take them as needed but still need to refill them on prescription. There isn’t an option to have a minimum level to remind you. Say you have 160 tablets in a box, I would like to set a reminder to remind me when there are 8 tablets remaining so I can re-order them. That way I don’t miss out on my prescription and have enough time to place the order. I like this app and if this was done I would rate it 5 star.

The website does not give any contact listing for the developer and really if you want to provide support you need to provide the option to give it and the option to receive feedback from your users. I am giving feedback because I like the app and this is a suggestion I hope, to make it better.

Another note dated 4th Jan 2020. If you have to modify the reminders it deletes all the history of any doses you’ve previously taken. Why? I cannot understand why it is needed to do this. It is a real pain if your schedule has to change. Still no feedback from the developer and that should be a warning to anyone buying this app.
