Reviews

Reviewer: Blogger on POZ Blogs, USA
Review: “I have used two free apps to remind me to take my meds. I started out with ‘Pillboxie’, which has a beautiful interface, and can handle all types of meds, including injection, oral liquids, and a myriad of pill shapes and colors. You drop the pills into a virtual pill box at the appointed time. This was great, and really helped me when I was on a twice-a-day medicine, and a once-a-day medicine. I now take two drugs once daily with food, which makes it so much easier: I just take my meds at lunch time. I still use an app to remind me, though.”

Reviewer: Blogger on POZ Blogs, USA
Review: “One thing that I hate about nagging apps that continuously bug you is that I don’t always have the time (or the patience) to load the app, and click the “Yeah, I did that”, or the “Give me back my life” checkbox. I’m one of those people who has to clear the app badge (or what I like to call the Red Dot of Shame) quickly. I feel guilty if I don’t. My biggest issue with ‘Pillboxie’ was that the count on the dot just kept growing if I didn’t pop into the app, and tell it I was a good boy, and took my meds. Missing a dose for me is rare, so I would prefer to only record my mistakes, and not my achievements.”

“Pillboxie helps me remember my medications, when to take them, and which I’ve already taken.”
