Pill Monitor: Drug Minder App Reviews

109 add

Very impressed

As someone that takes multiple medications, not only keeping track of when to take them but also recalling which ones at which dosage can be a chore. This app has helped me with all that.

Excellent

Really great reminder app, works awesome off my Apple Watch when I cant always have my phone with me!

Like but could improve

I like the ease of use but need to add to dosage the ability to have the app calculate the pills more accurately ex: pills are 250mg but the dose to take is 1000mg. You actually take 4 pills but the app only decreases by 1 pill because it doesnt know that the 1000mg is more than 1 pill. Also could have option for PRN currently have to put drug in as a scheduled and then skip or change the time taken.

Best one so far

So far the best pill reminder Ive tried (tested 30 so far). What most of them lack: 1) options when the reminder pops up... Taken, Skip and Snooze b/c sometimes you cant take your pills because youre in the middle of something. 2) If you missed the reminder, but took your pills, you need to be able to easily note when you took it. For missed reminders, Pill monitor offers: Taken on schedule, Taken now, and Taken another time. Now thats what I need. Some details need to be ironed out + would like to see some features added: 1) if I took my meds 30 min. late, Id like to be able to delay all the following reminders for that pill for the rest of the day; 2) for meds to be taken every X hours, it would be nice to have a timer showing how much time has passed since the last one; 3) I like that we can see at what time a pill was taken but how about adding the option to calculate the elapsed time between them.

This APP is great!

This app is great in reminding me to take my meds. I have a new specialist & my meds are changing constantly.

Excellent

Perfect for monitoring

Needs More Actual Drug Appearance identification method

Nice application reminder Works perfectly

Pills monitor

No option to ring even though all sounds are off. Ringer time is too short

more ads than reminders

apparently notifications wont ring but you are guaranteed to be bombarded by useless ads on totally unrelated products. Avoid.

Great App

This it a good app to have to remind you to take your medicine. It does what it says it suppose to do.

Great so far!

This is a great app so far!! Ive been on schedule and my doctor is happy about that!

Simple to use

I have a med that I take every other day, so I use this app to keep a record of when I took my last dose. It is free if you dont need a record of more than 50 doses at a time. When I get to 50, I delete the history and start over. It requires a dosage to be recorded each time, which is information I dont need to remember, but I just put in one numeral and it accepts that. Like the app.

Works great!

I havent forgotten my meds since installing this app.

Great app

Its a great app but if youre asleep and the reminder alarm goes off its very hard to hear it. But overall its great!!

Recommended to me

A pharmacist friend recommended this app when I complained about having trouble remembering when Ive taken my "as needed" medications. He always gives great advice--this recommendation included. I love it!

Very helpful app

I use this app to keep track of 2 medications that I take weekly. Its easy to use and I like the fact that it has reminders.

Great App

The only improvement this app needs to get 5 stars is to allow the recorded actions on one device to communicate the results to all of the devices. If I state that the medication was taken on my Apple Watch it doesnt talk to my iPhone and vice versa. Outside of that it is awesome. Also a screen dedicated to upcoming/pending doses would be nice instead of navigating to each medication.

Good

This app is good (usually) at reminding you to take your medication. I will admit that I have to take my medicine at various times- which without it would be impossible. It is not 5 stars because it doesnt always alert you to take your medication.

Improvement over my old app

Better sounds to notify you its time to take your mess. My old app sounded like a funeral dirge. But I wish it did not limit the data stored in history or I would give it 5 stars.

Working for me!

I wouldve given 5 stars if there were more tone choices - and also a vibration addition. But I havent really taxed it with my full med list - and now that I read another review about history, that would be valuable to me, too. Other than that this is working like a champ & Im proud to say Im 100% on time with my 3x/day nasty Keflex! Its important to take meds on time as Rxd, I know, but I had a pretty poor track record - especially when its multiples a day. Im a spinal cord injury patient and on lots of meds. Hospitals should train patients to use apps like these before being sent home.
