Review summary

Users widely rate WebMD as informative, useful for health information, and a trusted go-to resource—often praising the med reminder feature and overall educational value. However, recurring issues hinder experience: login/authentication problems (email vs username and password errors), the app failing to open, concerns about diagnostic accuracy (not a substitute for professional care), and repeated password reset/account recovery problems.

Pros

Informative and educational health content.
Very useful for health information, especially after hours and as an alternative to generic web search.
Positive user sentiment and trust; many users love the app and recommend it.
Medication reminders help with taking prescribed meds.
Considered a credible educational health resource by users.

Cons

Login/authentication problems (email vs username, password errors, lockouts).
App sometimes won’t open or load.
Concerns about diagnostic accuracy; not a substitute for professional medical care.
Password reset/account recovery problems (reset button not working).
