Meh

Probably the worse photos I’ve ever seen. Like what was this taken with a potato?
Having more information about the individual parasites would be nice as well.

Over all it looks like a rushed app with no creativity and barely any effort made to develop.

Ectoparasites!

Please please add ectoparasites. This app is phenomenal and the reason I'm doing well in Parasitology

Parasite Name Missing in iPad Version

In the 1.0.3 version of iPhone, you CAN see the name of the parasite in the green bar at the top when you tap on the photo. But, that is NOT true for the iPad version 1.0.3., where, if I tap on the photo, it shows for only a split second, behind the photo, when the photo flips, then the photo flips back. There is not enogh time to read the name before the photo flips back.

Great tool!

Very informative and easy to use!

Handy visual tool

This an easy to use fecal egg identification tool. A nice added feature would be to add frames with a “split screen” that features similar appearing ova side by side.
