### 4/5 — Mostly great

*2023-11-10, version 3.0*

Links need to be updated in regulatory area and the FDA banner jogs up and down the screen obscuring the text. You can get it to move out of the way, but it is incredibly annoying. However, the information provided on this app has been incredibly useful for our regulatory inspections team. I hope they can update and fix the issues soon!

### 4/5 — Good app, needs some updates

*2019-10-10, version 3.0*

Overall a great concept and helpful app. Links in regulatory section are outdated, need updating.
