Video ads!

App is useful and easy to use. The banner ads at the bottom are not a problem but recently the app has started running video/audio ads that won’t shut off without closing the whole app and rebooting, or letting the ad open in the App Store. Unacceptable! I will be removing this app from my practice.

Poor app

Useless app with annoying ads. If phototherapy level is even 0.1 mg above the lab result it shows that the level is low risk . There is no display of low intermediate and high intermediate risk zone.

A+ app

I absolutely love this app. It is spot on. I love how it figures out the babies age in hours for you. It graphs and trends the bili levels. The only reason why I didn’t give it 5 stars is because the app keeps crashing.

Updates Bili guidelines

Nice update to the latest 2022 AAP Bilirubin guidelines.
