Excellent medical source!

Consistently High Quality

The WebMD web site and their app have always been a good source of information in an easy to use interface.

Good Resource

Ive come to depend on WebMD for most of my medical questions – from conditions and symptoms, to medicines. Nice to see a medicine reminder, too! Very comprehensive and yet written simply and efficiently.

Best app

Greatest app to keep your meds on schedule. And you can take pictures of what the pill looks like.

Helpful when symptoms pop up

Helps when trying to decide if medical intervention is needed.

Thanks for apt. I use often for information and trust what I read.

Patient without patience

This app is ok to put your meds into for simple reminders, but it gives you no real solutions when you need to put in one that, for instance, is supposed to be taken once every three weeks and those are really the ones I need reminded of. I hope they actually read these and develop upgrades for their app from this input.

Whats the 911

Great app. Its very informative!

Technologically Deficient/Poor Support

I am very disappointed in the lack of device updates that would work with this app to track ones health. It has been my go-to app for tracking exercise, sleep, etc. but I recently purchased a Fitbit Charge HR (a very popular and mainstream device) with anticipation that it would work well with WebMD, only to find it will not sync my steps, a major part of my health focus. The only Fitbit device listed is the Flex so I had to choose that and it syncs sleep and at one point was syncing steps but then mysteriously stopped syncing the steps and only captures sleep now. I have made no less than three support requests about this issue and have been completely ignored. Support is my #1 feature in an app and the developers ability to respond and keep up with technology and WebMD epically fails here. So instead of a 4 or 5 star I can only give a 1 until they get their act together.

Reliable Health Info w/ a Nice Design

The essential in a mhealth app is that the information is reliable. The WebMD info is reliable. This app has a nice design with superb features that places the key tools for managing your health and improving your lifestyle. As I live in France certain features arent practical, i.e. healthcare facilities, physicians and pharmacies. Technically the app is fast, connects seamlessly to the WbMD website, and has an intuitive design. Its limitations are the other apps and devices you nay want to connect. Hopefully theyll expand this feature. But if you want reliable health information this is one of the best mHealth apps available.

Very helpful site

Im able to look up detailed information on medications and get lots of helpful information on all kinds of health issues. The quizzes let me know how much I already know about a subject and also what I need to know.

Thank You.

Saved my wifes life when she came to me with concerns regarding numbness. Went to the app, trusted the apps suggestion, then drove straight to the ER. If I had followed my wifes desires to disregard until another day I might have lost her. Five stars is not enough !!

I love this app

I use it every day not only that its helpful. I really counted on this app to keep my body going: exercise, foods, and my medications.

Medication reminders are idiotic

You cant enter the time that you took a medication. It will only mark the time as whatever time it was when you click that you took it. Theres no way to edit the time after, either. The only option is to delete the entire reminder. That means all the history with it also. Its moronic.

Meds

I love the new medication reminder. I used to have another app that sent me reminders but it was cumbersome.

New to the App

Im new to the app but so far , I think it will be very helpful .

More than enough

Quite informative without being too technical, want it more detailed and technical, break out your textbooks. I always have it ready as a handy resource

Like it!

Great reference for my medical questions. Appreciate the info provided via email as well.

Best info available

So great to have this much information at your fingertips and ready all the time. Saves me time when I need medical info stat!

Great

Easy to use!
