Figure 1 - Medical Cases

I learn new stuff about the medical field because of this amazing smart app

I was in the medical field working in the laboratory and was always looking at specific laboratory testing. Can’t do that now unless you have a license number

Updated: I haven’t used this app since the update. Honestly, the update has been all negative from my perspective… Why does the app not run in landscape orientation? Why do the images show up incredibly magnified/zoomed when I start? Ugh. I wonder if any HFE (human factors engineering) went into this redesign. I am so disappointed. From a glance, it appears I’m not the only one as there are very few comments being made for any cases (compared to version 8x).

I am probably one of your longest users but this app gets more useless as time goes on. JUST ARRANGE THINGS BY DATE. The top case that shows up in my feed today - ECMO and H1N1. How old is this case? 37 comments with no mention of covid- so this case has to be 2.5 years old.

I was a happy user of this app a while ago but they now require a user to be a ‘Medical Professional’, so I can no longer access the app. Very disappointing. Instead of banning nonprofessionals, maybe just limit their comments? This app is very educational and interesting. I visited daily. The web site they recommend is no way close to the app. So again, very disappointed.

Not a medical person but interested in this great app? Sorry —you get access no more. Out. Kicked out. Such a bummer.

I have not been able to access the comments since this app changed to the new “blue” version. It keeps saying to sign in to view or leave a comment. I am signed in. I try to sign in again and it doesn’t allow me to sign in. There needs to be a major fix.

I used to be a daily user. The app fascinated me, helped me grow as a person and student, and even lead to the diagnosis of a connective tissue disorder in someone very close to me. Though I am not a medical professional, I just graduated with a degree to teach math and science. I am so bummed to have lost this resource and really wish you’d open it back up to us all once again. I can honestly say that it would have inspired me to go into medicine, if I had been at a different point in life. Sad.

I love the app, I just wish they had more t-shirt giveaways! Surprisingly, my figure 1 illustrated heart t-shirt sparks many conversations with strangers!
