### 4/5 — Great symptom tracker

*2022-12-19, version 7.0*

Great overall app. 
I like the symptom tracker the most. 

I wish the graphs of symptoms allowed going back more than 7 observations, using some type of slider. 

The IOS interface to Apple Health would be great if it captured other health Lab results or medical records.

### 4/5 — Very helpful, but could use a few improvements

*2022-09-26, version 7.0*

So happy to have this app for tracking symptoms after chemo treatments.  It's easy to quickly capture a new event in real time and add very specific info as needed (e.g., fever - actual temp, or tachycardia - actual BPM).

It also works well to generate a quick report with a list of detailed events, email it to yourself, then use that to review and create a more concise list to review with my doctor.

The improvements that would really help:
1. Adapt font size to the device settings.  On my iPad, the text is so tiiny in this app it is barely readable with my glasses on.  And most apps are readable without glasses because I set my defaults that way.
2. Allow symptom names to be modified without losing the data.  Sometimes when we start tracking a symptom, we misname it, name it too narrowly or too broadly, or just wrong, and need to adjust it later.
3. Because doctors want a pain reference number when we report symptoms, add that 1-10 scale either as a replacement of the existing score or an additional number kept with each event.

But overall this is a very reliable and easy to use app.  And I'm so thankful it exists!!!

### 1/5 — Phone support

*2024-01-23*

Limited to U.S. number format, poor design as a result

### 1/5 — Not useable

*2013-09-01, version 2.2.0*

Needs nursing input

### 1/5 — Needs improvement

*2011-06-10, version 1.0*

Got this app thinking it would give specific info on the type of cancer I had. Might as well search the Internet instead.  Also not password protected which I was surprised with.  They could have done more with this.

### 1/5 — doesnt work

*2011-05-17, version 1.0*

ive loaded deleted and reloaded three times 

doesnt work

### 2/5 — Algo está mal

*2022-02-09, version 7.0*

No me funcionan las alarmas para los medicamentos 😫

### 2/5 — OK

*2012-12-19, version 2.0*

If you want info it's organized better than the web, if you are looking for support or access to others who have been there, really disappointing.

### 2/5 — It's ok

*2012-10-22, version 2.0*

Great potential, but they didn't carry it through. Many of the links don't  work, would be nice if you could pick meds and get side effects, info is very basic

### 3/5 — Good, but not all-inclusive

*2023-06-14*

I was looking for something to consolidate 100 different papers into one app that’s always with me. The “my health” tab needs a place to list your cancer type and details. I have breast cancer and there are so many different factors that I can never remember. I had to put them in “questions” just to have a quick visual.

I like the meds section, and that entering your appointments in the app first will sync with your iCal. I like that I can list all the different provider phone numbers.

### 3/5 — Needs a little work

*2022-09-04, version 7.0*

There should so be a way to edit or delete providers. If you have to update or change something you are out of luck. You have to create a whole new entry. 

Symptoms and Side Effects should be separate. It is important to distinguish between what symptoms arise from the cancer, and what side effects occurs from treatment and medications.

### 3/5 — Hard to use

*2012-10-11, version 2.0*

I can't find out how to delete an item ie type of cancer. Other than that it seems to work OK. Can any one help?

### 5/5 — Most helpful!

*2023-12-14*

Wish I’d learned about this valuable resource earlier in my diagnosis and treatment journey. It may have helped prevent many of the adverse events and outcomes associated with my treatment.

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2023-03-23*

This app is helpful as I begin this next phase of my breast cancer journey with chemo. will be able to add my systems from chemo over the next month to share with my oncologist at my upcoming visit. 

 I added my appointments & will continue to do so. It’s helpful to see them on the same screen versus having to scroll through my calendar for the week or following week. 

I definitely recommend this app. I’m not sure if it was around the first 2 times that I had cancer, but it’s helpful.

### 5/5 — Biggest daddy Ron

*2022-05-09, version 7.0*

Great app

### 5/5 — Great app for patient self management

*2021-07-04, version 7.0*

Great app for patients and families to navigate cancer care.  A nice addition to the symptom management list would be memory and attention problems, distinct from more severe delirium or confusion, which may occur in the setting of acute toxicities with various treatments or drug interactions. Cognitive symptom tracking would be especially helpful for patients transitioning to the post-treatment phase of care, where mild to moderate memory problems may interfere with resumption of pre-cancer levels of work or home activity.  This could aid patients in talking with their oncologist about management.

### 5/5 — Cancer.net

*2020-08-14, version 6.0.1*

Much useful data to be gathered and utilized with your provider.  Organizes and informs.  Good to be aware of your diseases trajectory.

It provides facts from Evidence based medicine

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2016-11-07, version 3.0.9*

This app is very informative and I wish I had it when I was first diagnosed with stage III breast cancer.  However using it now is very helpful especially with post treatment.

### 5/5 — Looks really good

*2016-10-03, version 3.0.9*

Still working with it but looks really good so far.
