Description by NHS Digital (from Google Play)
The NHS App gives you a simple and secure way to access a range of NHS services on your smartphone or tablet.

You can use the app if you are aged 13 or over. You must be registered with an NHS GP surgery in England or the Isle of Man.

You can also log in through the NHS website on a computer to use NHS App services.

Access NHS services
----------------------
Use the NHS App to access your NHS services, anytime and anywhere. You can request repeat prescriptions, use 111 online, find nearby NHS services and more.

Depending on your GP surgery, you may also be able to book appointments and contact your surgery about a health problem.

Manage your health
--------------------
The NHS App gives you a convenient way to view your health information, including your test results.

You can manage your upcoming appointments and prescription requests. You can also make choices about your health, like your organ donation decision.

Receive messages
-------------------
You can get important messages from your GP surgery and other NHS services through the app. Turning on notifications can alert you to new messages.

Manage services for other people
---------------------------------
You can switch profiles to access services for other people in the NHS App, such as a child or family member. Your GP surgery needs to give you access and you must both share the same surgery.

Log in securely
---------------
The NHS App will guide you through setting up an NHS login if you do not have one already. You will be asked to prove who you are. The app will then securely connect to information from your NHS services.

If your Android device supports fingerprint, face or iris recognition, you can use it to log in, every time you use the app.

Comments on NHS App for Android

★★★★★ John Reid · Oct 8, 2026
Not had any trouble with the app see all my meds records of yearly review, and I order my tablets each month a tablets are ready 3 days later 😀 easy to use an informative of checkups a lot don't need to put prescription in at doctors no nothing 10 out of 10 spot on
★★★★☆ Nadia Traynor-Herenda · Sep 26, 2026
It was a decent health app until they updated it recently, and now it seems to just keep on crashing, even once I've logged in. Like, I tried to go into the vaccinations page, and the whole app closed, logging me out on both attempts. Maybe it's something with the current version? Please fix this, so we can access our basic healthcare needs, e.g. flu vaccinations.
★★★★☆ John Palmer · Sep 25, 2026
Was Easy to use and very interesting from an historic perspective. Unfortunately you have made access very difficult. Why do I need to update this? I just want to access my records.
★★★★★ Gloria Coats · Oct 19, 2026
I am not able to see my letters, and I am having a Surgery on October 23, 2026. I do not have my admission letter, and need to know how long I stay in the hospital after the operation.
★☆☆☆☆ Paul Conway · Oct 13, 2026
This app is so darn picky that it's almost impossible to log into it. Ditch your script kiddies and get some professional programmers.
★★☆☆☆ Barbara Hughes · Oct 8, 2026
It was very good, then stopped. I contacted someone and it came back immediately. I ordered a prescription but when it came one of the meds was missing. I then tried to reorder on the app, but again I cannot locate the app. It just goes round in a broken blue circle.
★☆☆☆☆ Richard Benson · Oct 8, 2026
Why an app just to receive your info. Quick call to the surgery and they send it by email. That easy, sick to death of Apps
★☆☆☆☆ Abdul Shakoor · Oct 19, 2026
Can't see messages for my elderly father even though I have valid consent. And the silly NHS is sending letters via the app instead of by post, so we don't have access to important communication. Very smart 🤦🏽‍♂️
