So far very useful
I’m a student nurse and this app is helping me a great deal. Allows me to search up everything and anything within one platform. It’s like all the essential medical books merged into one app that you can access even offline.
Great app
Absolutely amazing. Some words are even offered with pronunciation. All you need to do is type in the word you do not clearly understand and it shows up with multiple possible meanings and their sources. So far I’ve gone through an entire medical book (barely knowing what white blood cells were before I started) and this dictionary app has helped me out so much. Thank you, creators💕
Great app
I’m a newly qualified nurse and often see abbreviations I don’t know and/or conditions I’m not sure about. This app is great for quick easy references. Absolutely love it
Useful app but not optimised for Xs Max
I use this app daily at work but I’m disappointed that it hasn’t been optimised for the larger displays. This really lets the app down and makes using it quite difficult.
Good app
Good app, easy to use
Very happy to have discovered thi d app
I’m currently going through another change in my medication as I’m told by my consultant they suspect I have a further addition to my long line of previously diagnosed chronic conditions. Removing some meds and changing others in the hope of ruling out the confusion over whether the problem is a side effect of my meds or a different problem altogether is confusing for me, so to help keep me informed about my treatment my consultant, the very kind, patient and extremely professional man who has been looking after my health for almost 20 yrs now, writes notes for me about the things I might like to read about at home, along with reputable reference sources.
I asked him if this was a further source of good information and he looked into it and told me that it was, and that he will add it to the list of reference info he offers to his other patients in a similar position to me.
The only thing I’d like the developer to add is the option of a paid for, ad-free version… however, the ads that are there are noticeable when they appear in a band across the bottom of the screen, but almost immediately seem to disappear into the peripheral vision.
I’m very happy I found this app, but please, seriously, don’t allow the app to beg for 5* feedback every time I open it as it is the fastest way to get me to delete an app – no matter how good the app is.
Awesome
So far I'm in awe of its functions. I hardly ever comment on app regardless of its functions but i must say using it the past few days I am amazed. I totally recommending it for you in particular. Awesome guys 👏👏
