Great on iPhone or cell and makes studying quickly, easy. Larry IMG
I don’t know what that “non-sponsored” other review is talking about. There are less than 100 buzzwords for everything that are divided into non-conventional categories and you just scroll through (Renal & MSK are combined and have 14 “buzzwords”!!). I can literally think of at least 30 buzzwords right now that they could have used. Went through the whole app in 20 minutes. If you google Step 1 buzzwords or look at First Aid (end of the book) you will have a better list. One of the buzzwords is “cough” and it lists 3 possible causes. Another one is Down Syndrome. They have the most basic concepts. Waste of money. That other review cannot be real.
I've been following the growth of this app since it first showed up on the App Store. It's an excellent app led by an amazing team of developers that's very willing to not only take feedback but to also implement it, alert you of those updates, and then request more feedback on their progress. As to the app itself (and the rest of their app ecosystem) I think it's wonderfully done. It seems like most people believe UWorld and Kaplan hold this monopoly of USMLE question banks so there are few competing apps. Granted this app isn't so extensive as for me to say "pay this small fee and ditch UWorld" but it is a great primer for your memory and an easy way to learn a fact/test your knowledge everyday. Their notification system is new and very well done and I look forward to seeing how they grow. They haven't paid me for this review but I'm planning on leaving it on every app they've created. They should know their work is appreciated, to keep up the good job. And others should know to download this. Medical student Dartmouth, 2016
The content of this app is worth pennies, if at all. You have a random collection of subjects and systems, both incomplete from a step 1 point of view, and like 10-15 factoids listed, ALL of which you can easily get in your first aid etc. Why have this app when the stuff is available for free? And someone who writes "they've been tracking the GROWTH of this app.." Is misleading the buyer - if this app has actually grown then it must have started with Two Or Three Measly Factoids. Cheap on content, certainly not worth the 0.99 I spent on it. Avoid.
