Vaccy: Immunization Record

I believe this is only the second time I’ve taken the time to write a review for an app. Like most other people, I usually take action only when I am seeking to solve or resolve an issue. I’ve not had any issues or difficulties at all with this app and was just updating my vax history and thinking how grateful I am that I used this app. I initially installed it to keep track of the many vaccines I was about to undertake last year to travel abroad. My yellow book (international vaccination book) was full and, knowing myself, trying to keep a single note or document updated over time as well as having it readily available if needed during remote travel wasn’t a reassuring thought. I am pleased with the data privacy provided. There is nothing about this app that I have encountered that I would change.

This is certainly a very valuable tool to keep track of an increasingly important medical issue: vaccinations. It caused me to go back over my vaccination history as a child, in the military and just getting regular vaccinations as they become available or are necessary or recommended for travel. And the data is kept private. And the license is available for other members of the same family and even for the family pets. There is a field for who administered and when,, and a variety of other related information. It’s well worth the money.

Apple Health will not let you enter manual immunization records, even for things like flu shots. I don’t need an app to prove/certify anything, I just wanted something to keep track of what vaccine I received, when I got it, and where I got it. This app does all of that flawlessly. If I had one suggestion, and it could be user error, but I couldn’t figure out where to add a pharmacy. In the USA, we don’t have to get vaccines at a doctor’s office so the majority of my vaccinations are at various pharmacies. For now, I just added a new doctor named Walgreens Pharmacy. Great app though. Appreciate the one-time fee option; happy to do that to support development efforts. Just hope the app doesn’t get abandoned; that’s the risk with paying the lifetime fee. But as of this review, the app was updated two months ago which is recent enough for me.
