---------- What People Are Saying ----------
"This is what us with brain damage, memory and concentration problems have been needing so much. The Apple calendar & reminder is useless for us. To think of that and make something so easy to use and user friendly and simple clear distiguishable colours is genius! Honestly its the one app I couldnt ever be without now. Seriously. I havent got a clue how I managed the last 5 years since my accident. Well I do, Id forget everything! I cant speak highly enough not only what you have created but the huge life changing impact something so simple has made. Thank you! thank you! thank you!" Warren J., Living with a Brain Injury

Pros and cons of Qcard | Outsmart Forgetfulness app for iPhone and iPad
Qcard | Outsmart Forgetfulness app good for
Qcard rocks! I have an ABI and this app has literally changed my life - thank you! BTW, your support team is awesome!!
At 5 months post brain surgery, Im still very easily confused and have significant memory issues- this app is the only way I have found to keep track of appointments. Talked to customer service MANY times and they have always been kind and explained things in a simple enough way that I could follow. Absolutely thrilled with the app and the service.
After having a ruptured brain aneurism, I have a difficulty with brain fog and remembering much of anything that needs to be done and so with the help of this App I can keep things straight. Thank you Qcard Makers. I could cry every time I think what if I didnt have this incredible tool to help me everyday. I call it my other better brain.
Qcards is better than any other calendar/reminder/contact app that I have found and used. I love the feature that utilize my iPhones existing contact base.
This app does what it says. Theres no mistake about it. I have relied on the reminders and it has never failed me. I highly recommend this app to anyone who needs a daily reminder for anything important. Never miss an appointment again:)
Hi... I would just like to say that I had to contact support as it appeared to crash on me. I cannot say enough good things about them. They were truly caring and helpful. I am now up and running once again!

Some bad moments
Was originally awesome from the start but the app froze on me and had to be deleted and reinstalled making me lose all data. Great while it works but you should have a back up
Hello, I had a severe traumatic brain injury recently. I needed something that would help me organize and was delighted to find Qcard and purchased it. I think it has been very useful, however I am very frustrated, actually angry, that now for the fourth time since I bought the App it has now failed to re-open! The first time it happened I emailed you about it and was told that this had been a known problem and that an update would be made and was told to delete the app, re-install it (losing all the entered data) and to make a daily reminder in the meentime that would stop this from happening again until he update was available. There hasnt been an update! It has happened again TWICE!!!
I am fed up, and I dont trust this app anymore.
I received an apology letter to this complaint explaining they would have a new update;
"We have resolved the issue/bug and is part of our next release/update. We havent released an update yet because weve packaged it with Version 2.0.
With this new version (2.0) youll be able to send & receive Qcards with others and track it until its complete. Were really excited about this feature, as we think it will help families organize, manage and delegate their lives together. We are in the testing phase and plan on releasing it early February.
Before you give up on us, I ask that you give us one more try with Version 2.0 - I really think it will benefit you and your family in a huge way.... plus this version is very stable and should not fatally crash."
This app is a waste of money. It rarely works properly. I have had it were it will not open and have had to delete the app and reload it five times now in the last five months. In doing this I have lost all my record of events each time.
This is the 4th time Ive tried Qcard. It has previously frozen on me resulting in deleting the app and losing all data, this is punishment to some one living with a braim injury. since deleting it the alarms still sound with no way to turn off. Remove app from your phone ASAP unless you want the same issue.
Update: Ive had the app a couple of months now, and it is as buggy as ever. So many problems! Developers: try using your app for a while. Then fix it.
Downgrading from three to two stars.
Original review:
This could be a great app, but it has some issues. I bought it about six hours ago, and it has frozen once and randomly shut down three times. Also, there is no way to delete a message from the inbox.
I have almost no short term memory so this app is awesome for people like me. I like how quick and easy it is to use, which makes it more likely to be used regularly and (what was I talking about)? Yeah I dont know. But it will come to me. I love chocolate!
