Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

The app is useless and crashes, and the website is no better. Hims charges 3X what a normal pharmacy charges. Customer service is awful.

App makes you re-sign in every time the app updates. Causing me to miss notification, I had no idea my subscription automatically renewed and sent it out.
