### 5/5 — Très bonne application

*2024-12-05*

### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne plus

*2024-04-14*

Depuis le passage à iOS 17.4.1 impossible à charger

### 1/5 — Grosse arnaque

*2019-09-27*

J’ai acheté l’application et pas moyen de faire une recherche. Il faut payer une mise à jour c’est quoi ce truc? On nous conseille de télécharger cette application mais rien ne fonctionne, il demande de payer un abonnement.

### 1/5 — Arnaque

*2019-08-15*

Se fait classer comme application à achats intégrés alors que, dès la première utilisation, le système réclame un paiement.
De plus, l’application est mal conçue, mal présentée, instable, avec des informations non fiables.

### 5/5 — Ein sehr gutes Programm und ein sehr guter Support

*2017-08-01, version 4.0.1*

Ein sehr gutes Programm und ein sehr guter Support. Selbst am Wochenende innerhalb von Minuten eine sehr hilfreiche Unterstützung. Danke vielmals!

### 1/5 — Seit letztem Update nutzlos

*2013-12-01, version 3.2.1*

Seit dem letzten Update funktioniert die Suchfunktion nicht mehr richtig. Man kann nur noch nach einem Medikament suchen, da man nicht mehr zurück kommt um andere Medikamente eingeben zu können. Dies kann man nur noch, wenn man das i-Phone komplett ausschaltet und wieder einschaltet. Was soll das, so ist das App. nicht zu gebrauchen!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Nur schlecht

*2012-11-30, version 3.1.1*

Nicht kaufen !! Die App ist Geldverschwendung ! Absolut schlecht umgesetzt ! Leider kann man keine Null Sterne geben.

### 1/5 — Stürzt ab!

*2012-10-19, version 3.0*

Unter iOS 6.0 stürzen beide Versionen von vorne ab!

### 1/5 — Daumen nach unten

*2011-12-30, version 2.1*

Habe mir die App gekauft und weil ich dringend die Infos brauche. Sobald man in der App auf den Button "Richlinien" drückt, wandert der Bildschirm nach unten aus, so dass keine Bedienung mehr möglich ist. Ich kann die App also gar nicht benutzen. Für den Preis sind solche deletantischen Fehler völlig inakzeptabel. Ich will mein Geld zurück! Da ich die Infos dringend benötige, muss ich mir jetzt wohl oder übel die App eines Mitbewerbers kaufen. Eigentlich null Sterne.

### 1/5 — Closes by itself about one third of the time

*2011-05-12*

I recently paid $26 for this app. About one third of the time when I select a drug, the App closes by itself. This occurs repeatedly when I try to view the same drug. Sometimes I am later able to view the drug information, but other times not.

This is unacceptable for a paid application. It is not a cheap application either!

I went to the app Support website to request help. In the "message" box, the keyboard does not work, so you cannot actually leave a message! They have no phone number or email address.

Kompendium, if you are reading this, I have sent you my contact details and would like the problem resolved or a refund please :)

On the up side, it contains all relevant drug information and is nicely presented, so is useful when it works well. If it worked as it was meant to all the time, I would rate it highly.

**Developer response:** Dear naesthetic Registrar, thank you for your Feedback. Please update to the latest version. I'm sure you will like the new version. As requested our support email address: support@treeinspired.com
