## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Do Not Buy!

*2013-06-07*

The app does not function properly - won't open beyond the first page. When I called customer service they said to uninstall it and then reinstall it (paying twice, which I refused to do....) and then said to call back Monday. The rep didn't even know what an app store was. Bad experience all around.

### 1/5 — Terrible i can not open this app $4.99 i want it back

*2012-12-03*

This app is not open i click on it it goes back to the ipad screen and i keep opening  this app but nothing i just want my money back :(

### 3/5 — Not enough detail.

*2013-02-21*

This could be a useful study aid, but Carolina fell short of the mark. Basic structures are not labeled, such as the juxtaglomerular apparatus on the kidney, or not shown at all, like the portal triads of the liver. More photos of each tissue would be good, and the stain and magnification should be mentioned on every slide. Another useful feature would be the ability to upload your own photos and add/edit labels. 
 As an educator, I would recommend college level students give this app a miss for now. I like the concept, but this app needs beefing up, especially for $5.

### 3/5 — Good but needs improvement

*2012-11-18*

From what I've seen this app is pretty solid, but it is lacking one incredibly useful (and in my mind crucial) feature: The ability to review only one tissue/organ/system at a time, or at the very least skip questions that aren't relevant to the material you're currently studying.  

I can't really comment on the true depth of the app bc of this limitation. I haven't seen exactly how many slides the app covers as Im trying to prepare for an exam (on blood and hematopoiesis) and I don't have time to go through each of the questions one-by-one.

No more than 3 stars for reasons above. No fewer because from what I did see, the content seems solid and the interface flows pretty nicely.

Tl;dr - 3 stars bc you cant skip around or focus on a specific tissue/organ.

### 3/5 — Histology

*2012-02-07*

Good review/practice tool.  Wish I could "skip" tissues/organs that we haven't covered in class.  Would also like to be able to zoom in.

### 4/5 — Good

*2014-10-25*

Thank you for this app that has pictures of mitosis as well as descriptions.  Good work.

### 5/5 — Had to download for class, was good

*2021-05-24*

I learned a lot from this app. It helped me understand mitosis. It also made me cry but that’s not important. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

### 5/5 — Excellent study tool and practice for slide identification!

*2012-10-05*

Excellent study tool and I really like the practice icon to review for slide identification test!

### 5/5 — Thanks

*2011-12-29*

Soooooo useful for learning. I wish there was even more quizzes.

### 5/5 — A very useful tool

*2011-11-24*

Very useful for learning the basics of histology, learning to recognise tissue types, etc. Recommended!
