My PillBox(Meds&Pill Reminder) for Android
Very useful app. On my old N7000 was working flawlessly. On new Galaxy A7 2017 Marshmallow, locked screen reminder were not working. Investigated and found lock screen notificitaion setting and configured. Bit better. However, sometimes, for example when I taking many pills, reminder fails to notify me.
The app is great in the sense that you can input multiple meds and supplements with schedules and reminders, and it's easy. However, I really dislike the notification tones. There's very few to choose from and get annoying and most are too long and/or drawn out (especially the percussion one). I prefer short notifications and several options. Please update this.
Ads are now showing up and cause medication due page to return to top of page every time you check a med as taken. When you have 16 to 18 meds three times a day this is a pain. Please fix this. Thank yoi
On the last update, there a now ads on the daily meds page (which is fine btw people need to eat/pay rent.) However, every time you click on a medication the page automatically scrolls back to the top of the page- making the user scroll back down if he/she needs to check another med during the same time frame. This is v annoying because I take 5 meds during the evening If you can change this, so if doesn't do this anymore that'll be 5 stars.
I like the idea but some of the features don't work- the main one being the reminder feature. So it's great for documenting but you have to remember first which is usually one of the main problems in the first place and reason for using the app.
I LOVED this app it was awesome... Exactly what I needed but for some reason, it's changed in the last few days... Was there an update..?? If so,, PLEASE tell me how I can get it back to the way it was coz I HATE what you've done to it... I relied on it but now,, in the most polite way I can explain,, Its completely messed up...!! Help me or I'm guna have to delete it... Seriously why mess with something that works..!!
Cute layout, no good at reminding you. I dowloaded this app because of the cute minimalist layout, but for some reason the reminders didn't work. No alarm, no nothing... So it did no good at actually helping me take my meds :(
I recently had a medical issue that required me to be on several medications. I've never taken meds regularly and this app helped me make sure I took everything when I was supposed to. Highly recommend
I have just updated the app and I regret it - as at least one other person has said it keeps flipping up to the top when you record a medication and I much prefer the previous way the meds log worked please bring back the previous build
Like the app a lot. When taking multiple meds at once I have to scroll down to get to the med I'm using. Also when getting current meds set up it will jump back up to earliest time within a few seconds. I do like how it tracks when i need to refill meds and the reminder with snooze or skip feature.
Was great until I got a new phone and now it only works around 30% of the time. I need blood thinners every 12 hours and sometimes the alarm just doesn't go off. Settings are all correct. It's just not working well at all since I updated it. I was a life savers before that.
Worked great at first, then alarms failed to go off. After several missed pain med doses after a c-section, I downloaded another app to try.
Fantastic app I have lots of tablets to take at varies time throughout the day, and this app is perfect for that and even tells me when I need tonre order!! Defiantly worth getting, never missed a dose.
Still have some flaws to fix, but really nice app. Confirmation button hidden at the end of the screen, should always be on top. Worst if you forget or not see the confirmation button, your changes are lost without warning! Frustrating. Some selections screen have no confirmation button... It doesn't help to remind you and not forget it... And loose your changes. Should have more color selection selection for pills, existing one are not realistic for real meds. Now I love the multiple patients feature (my dogs have no phones to track their meds :)), and it is quick to switch from one to another. Should have a paid version to get rid of ads.
It is so easy to have list on hand also know ahead what refills I need. I had tried two other apps. This one is awesome
Idk yet I haven't been taking my bipolar or depression medicine lately I need to hopefully this app will help me take them I took them 3 weeks ago but I didn't take them alot in months
Does what it promises and more. Perfect and easy to use and understand especially for people like me with memory and sight and hand movement problems. Even better than my favourite MsOffice Schedule+ program that I've used for 17 years, because I can take it with me on my cell phone. I also use it for all kind of other reminders, cause it lets you enter anything you want to. Just pick a pill option I don't use for my meds and use for all other. This app has helped me more than any medical person so far UPDATE 3 AUG 2017 make huge mistake of updating this app last week and have spent last week fighting with it. It no longer is useful to me nor would i recommend it anymore. Too frustrating to deal with it. Going back to my MsOffice Schedulle+ which is at least reliable always
It's a brilliant app, but I keep loosing all the current data. I don't know what I'm doing wrong?
I always remembered to my meds. But it helps keep track of meds. & when to refill. I'm a retired RN. Love the recording of husband's meds. Since up dated there are adds which hide what I need to see.
Love this app. Allows me to list my meds, side effects & reminds me to refill my prescriptions. Very useful. Would recommend this app.
This app did not remind me to take my medication. No alarm went off. I like it, other than that.
I have been using this app for 2 days, and already it has stopped reminding me to take my medication. Very disappointed that as well as this, I now need to set other alarms as a back up
I love it I've been trying to find a reminder app for meds and I had no idea they had these for special Education kids and teens and adults I have to show this to my mom
I've used this App for several years it has always done well for me I would recommend this app to anyone who wants to make doctor's appointments and wants to be reminded
Fix it so it doesn't bounce back to the top after checking off each medication & I might give it a 5* rating.
This app worked flawlessly on my last phone . But on this samsung A5 2016 , i donot get any alerts of the medicine . No sound No vibration No alert . And my son says this is the best app on the market ...!
Dislike the ads. Also does not deduct for usage of pills even though you input qty. on hand
Not like the ther med app i had but it will work
It's great... When the reminder alert actually works. Would also like to be able to add dosage and as needed medications.
Tried this app again, with galaxy S8. Still only works part of the time. Need to find another
All I needed was a reminder for my pain meds so I didn't take them more frequently than I should. I was using the paper and pen method and relying on my brain. I tried a ton of these whacked apps! All were complicated, requiring way more brain effort and "pointing and clicking" than just remembering the silly pills! I ended up deleting them all. Finally found this app and was able to create a 6 month schedule that would simply remind me to take that pill every 4 hours, every day and over the course of a six month period, so I don't have to fiddle with it every day! Alarm goes off...bingo....I take a pill. Looks like it will work and was easy enough to set up the pain meds, that I added two others that I take once a day. I don't need excruciating detail about the pill or the doctor or the direction to the clinic! I do need to be able to add how many pills, how many hours per day and how many days per week vs. some arbitrary numbers the app thinks I should add because some programmer wrote it that way! This app seems to provide that level of simplicity. It also lets me keep track of how many pills I have left so I remember to have my doc reorder them before running out.....and it does that with out requiring me to send a report or an email to my doc or a pharmacy or any thing else for that matter! Anyway I gave it a 5 rating for being "simple enough" that I didn't have to take a course in programming to set it up!
Notification stops to work after two days(Note 8). Useless.
Sometime it reminds and sometimes not. Why this problem is arising don't understand. Rest is ok
It goes off when i need to take my meds.
Like the feature to add multiple family members at no cost. Wish to have this information signed up and saved to individual account.
Really helpful. Reminds me to take my medication exactly when I set the app to remind myself to take it.
What's the point if reminders does not work?
It doesn't work!! I didn't get any notifications :(
Since the last update this app really sucks! I always see the same ads and now it's hard to click on the med to show that I took it

Have used this for a couple of weeks now. It's a bit cumbersome having to scroll down for each medication taken when you have a few at once. Reminder alarm works great. I like that I can keep track of doctors appointments and include notes from each visit. Also it's nice that it counts down how many pills are left so I know ahead of time when to refill. All in all its a pretty good app!
