Problem fixed
Yatta123

Besides the issue I had before with crashing, amazing app. Easy to use and very helpful for busy ER docs. Thanks.


Canadian neurologic Scale
Dr. LP1

The CNS is a simpler and more practical neurological scale for stroke eval. Consider adding it to your magnificent MD tool kit. Dr. LP1


Usability
JackoFly

Just a couple of frustrations after switching over from android to Apple. When putting in numbers and formulas The input boxes are very close to the drop-down boxes on the right and often when I put the number in and click in the drop-down box on accident. Also as I’m putting in numbers and I go to scroll to the next number the keyboard disappears and scrolling it’s very sluggish and frustrating. It is not smooth like it was an android. I appreciate your content and like the app, just a couple of suggestions after moving from android to Apple

User interface REALLY needs some work
jmdkl

Unfortunately the implementation of these web forms on the iPhone version is really bad. Makes it very hard to enter and delete entries, move the cursor, the keyboard gets in the way without intelligently scrolling often, etc. In short the UI is kind of a disaster despite the calculators being very useful.

The best of the best

Amazing app for every score calculations..


Very useful app. Stopped working on M1 Mac
Sam B. From Indiana

This is a very useful app. I realize that it is designed for iPad, but it would be super helpful if the developers ensured that it can be used on Apple Silicon Macs as well. It used to work, but it no longer does, and I am not sure if this is due to an update.


Be leary of the RCRI calculator
Jk899999

I love the ease of this APP, but have to use another APP to calculate RCRI. This APP calculates the RCRI incorrectly


No second thoughts

If you’re a resident, you know how many times this app has saved your bacon. Probably the best of its kind out there.
