Comes in handy…

Hospital Pharmacist for over 30 years, have been using Harriet Lane all this time. This is my go to reference for checking drug doses for kids. Handy to have on my phone.

Still not a finished product, buy the paper copy

Tried to find normal for age glucose levels in reference value section. Says see chapter 10, with link provided. No values listed there, just discussion on diabetes. Just tried to look up normal for age thyroid labs. All values for ages above 28 days are missing now. I tried to call their number as they have requested, got voicemail.

Great resource

Use daily. Love the ability to save favorites and search. Formulary and expanded drug search great addition. Indec is still not complete and would love more search power for simpler terms that are not already indexed or on table of contents. Overall thougb improvement on last two apps and invaluable day to day

Do not buy!

I totally agree with another reviewer. I bought the previous version for $60 and because the developer did not update this app I can no longer access the content. If I had purchased the book instead I would at least have access to the questions I look up the most! I will never purchase again from Unbound ever again.

Can’t open

I bought this app 2 years ago and they haven’t updated it so it won’t open after the IOS 11 update. I think they want us to shell out another $60.

DO NOT USE UNBOUND, DO NOT BUY

I have had many of their products in last few years at about 60 an app. iOS 11 comes along and they are the ONLY app publisher that didn’t update their product to work in iOS 11. Their solution - rebuy every app to the updated iOS app. I bought the standalone non subscription app to prevent downstream costs with a huge upfront cost. Egg on my face huh. Unbound had 2 years to update all their apps but chose to gouge their customer base!

Good content, bad outdated design

The app cost 55$, I have to have high expectations for the price. The contents of the book are good and handful for review. the search function is nice although it can be better. Now about what needs so much improvements. The resolution just fuzzy and ugly on my iPhone 6 plus (which unacceptable for such high price). The content orientation on the screen is bizarre, especially when a table appears, you scroll right and left on empty spaces just because a table filling in the middle. For the price I expect high level design and ease of use, which already free apps like medscape already provide. In Summary, good book, lousy app design.
