What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.
"After sitting here in pain I mite add, downloaded this app answered all questions and filled out form and registered like it asked me too; just to be told they've got no referral from my GP so unable to process my condition!! So why send these NHS letters out asking people to download getUBetter app and use wile waiting for my physio appointment at the hospital 🤔 !! So waste of time: don't bother 🙄 with this app pointless!!...."

"Helped me so much when I had a painful neck."
Sheena Baird
"Won't let me sign in Something about pathway"
Garry Cockerill
"Rubbish can't get past page asking the problem must be within 12 weeks"
kath maule
"Helpful content but the user interface is terrible, really not obvious how it is meant to be used. Was unable to full screen videos or find accessibility options easily. Very much not clear what they want you to do."
Dominic Aspden
"The app's functionality could do with some tweaks but the premise is brilliant and very helpful content. I think this is a huge improvement on the old system after care with an injury where you'd be sent on your way with a print out of some stretches"
David Kembrey
"Good"
Una Andrews
"Still setting up."
Mark Farr
"Has to be for an injury incurred in last 12 weeks. Why? Doesn't tell you that at outset before registering."
