### 5/5 — WOW Adaptable!

*2022-06-28, version 1.95*

We have a very small EMS volunteer agency in a rural area. Needless to say funds are tight and we don’t waist money. So far every inventory system I’ve explored has been priced out of our league and designed for a large businesses. This program has all the features I’m looking for...mostly it will permit me to keep track of expiration dates and order in supplies before everything we use has expired. Thank you for making a simple, adaptable, practical app that is both user friendly and inexpensive.

We’ve been using the app for over a year now and it still suits our needs. Very reliable!

**Developer response:** Thanks very much for your kind review. I’m glad to hear that Ampoule is useful for you.

Ideas, feature requests and feedback are welcome at info@ampoule.io.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t help with organization and use.

*2021-03-18, version 1.91*

This app is good in theory but it’s too basic. Our facility has multiple boxes of OTCs that we need to track on inventory and expiration. The expiration part is great. But not being able to organize by drug type (keep all batches under one file) and not being able to record dispenses makes the app almost pointless. Great for tracking expiration dates.  Wish there was a dispense feature where we could document where/who they go to. 

Also, the app is tied to my Apple ID. Makes it hard to use across a department with various Apple IDs in use. Would be nice to have one account with login information so that all staff can download the app and log-in.

**Developer response:** Hi there.
Thanks for using Ampoule and for the feedback. Sorry that it is not meeting your needs well. It’s interesting to hear how people use the app, and especially how they would prefer to use it.

I’m currently working on a major new version of Ampoule which will allow for multiple groups of items. I really like the idea of tracking where items have been dispensed to. If you have ideas about what this feature should involve, I’d be grateful for your thoughts by email to info@ampoule.io.

Thanks again for using Ampoule 

Chris

### 3/5 — App is crashing

*2021-02-08, version 1.91*

Been using this for a while. For some reason the app keeps crashing and closing on my phone while trying to search update the medication. Any software update needed ?

**Developer response:** Hi there. Thanks for using Ampoule. Sorry that you’re having problems with the app.

I’ll look into this crash and try to issue a fix as soon as possible. It can be helpful if you email info@ampoule.io with more details, such as exactly when the crash happens and when the data was entered, and if it only happens while searching. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-04-30, version 1.5*

Finally an inexpensive app for small practices that just want to count their supplies and keep track of expired supplies. Customizable, attractive, easy. Good job!

**Developer response:** Hi Lynette. Thanks very much for your review. I’m glad you’re finding Ampoule useful.

If you have any ideas for features you would like to see in future versions, you can email info@ampoule.io or use the contact form at ampoule.io.

Thanks for using Ampoule!
Chris
