This app simply provides information on individual drugs and the concept of addiction but does not provide means of support. Information is good but as an addiction professional who suffered from addiction to cocaine and heroin for many years and has now been clean 7 years 8 months 2 weeks 3 days I was hoping to give this app to patients and people new to recovery but do not see the potential for its use. ### 2/5 — Really? Disappointed. *2014-10-24, version 2.2.5* I think there are probably more words in the description of this app than in the whole app otherwise!! This is VERY VERY basic information that is just as easily gotten from a dictionary. ### 1/5 — Learn your stuff *2014-09-20, version 2.2.5* I wish I could give zero stars. After reading just a few it's clear your thoughts on addiction are based on very old studies, and in some cases, drugs were a proper study has never even been done. Marijuana for instance does have known medical uses, it is a prescribed drug, it is legal in some states, there is nothing physically addictive in it. If you're going to make an app about addictions you should at least put some science, and some actual facts in it. ### 1/5 — Why *2014-07-25, version 2.1.2* Why is there a marijuana leaf as the picture? You can't be addicted to marijuana you idiot ### 1/5 — This has to be a joke! *2013-09-17, version 2.1.2* Lame. Rudimentary. Links to Wikipedia. The icon is the best thing about this ridiculous app! 😂😂 Deleting... ### 1/5 — Ok...for an infant to read *2013-07-18, version 2.1.2* The contents of this app could be printed on the back of a milk carton, read its contents in less than ten minutes ### 1/5 — Weak *2013-04-13, version 2.1.2* Super weak ### 1/5 — Crap *2013-02-07, version 2.1.2* More war on drugs propaganda ### 2/5 — Nothing here *2013-01-25* Just a few opening lines and links to Wikipedia articles... Not really an app, keep trying... I gave it two stars not because it is useful but just because it can't hurt you, and I was able to delete it. ### 1/5 — Pre much A rip of Wikipedia *2013-01-04* Didnt do much info really on the drugs ### 1/5 — . *2012-12-20, version 2.1.2* Terrible app not worth the time to download. Did'nt even get any good facts, or a large selection of addicting drugs. ### 4/5 — Alcoholism *2012-11-30, version 2.1.2* Am also a alcoholic .am recovering from 3 years in AA meeting ### 1/5 — "War on Drugs" Propaganda *2012-11-11, version 2.1.2* There's a higher lifetime dependency rate with caffeine than marijuana. So if you're going to call marijuana (a natural herb that has never directly killed a human) a drug, then you may as well put coffee, soda, and energy drinks on your list. The programmer just made this to scare people. Most of those drugs are safer than legal prescribed medications. ### 1/5 — Don't bother *2012-11-06, version 2.1.2* It's an unimpressive dictionary at best. ### 1/5 — Total waste of time *2012-09-30, version 2.1.2* Don't bother ### 1/5 — Absolutely hilarious *2012-09-23, version 2.1.2* An excellent read for all those hoping for a bit of humor in this mis-informed world. Marijuana is not recommended for medical treatment is an example of this behavior. After all, ecstasy always makes me go on rape filled rampages where I just can't control myself, so why not download this app to get all the best info on drugs today? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Outdated and offensive to marijuana users *2025-11-14* I found this to be extremely offensive to the 420 community, please update the information on marijuana ### 1/5 — Really? *2018-08-04* This is one of the worst recovery apps I have come across. Useless. ### 1/5 — Too little or even inaccurate information *2016-09-07, version 2.2.5* There are very few included drugs or drug-related terms in the app to be useful, the definitions are far too short to be useful and the information is often inaccurate. It is written like people tried to write something of the top of their heads for a middle-school project, rather than information to be relied upon for the public... And this is a joke if it is to be considered for use by health care providers. There's little to no scientific information in any definition, and this app actually perpetuates myths that MHCPs and addictions workers are trying to end. ### 1/5 — Absolute trash *2015-09-01, version 2.2.5* The people that made this app are completely ill informed on every single thing here. Do not use this for anything but a good laugh ### 1/5 — I wish I didn't have to give it a star at all. *2015-06-07* This app will tell you ignorant lies. When it stated that a poison(alcohol) can have medical benefits when it accounts for well over 50,000 deaths due to cancer in the United States every year and a natural herb(cannabis sativa) that has been used medically for thousands of years has no medical use I immediately knew the creators of this app are very uneducated and lack any knowledge of the medical history of the United States prior to the 1930's political corruption leading to the failed war on natural medicine(cannabis)... I mean drugs. ### 1/5 — Garbage *2015-03-17, version 2.2.5* Delete!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Ugh *2015-01-18, version 2.2.5* Really. A little research would be nice. Marijuana has been proven to relieve nausea, insomnia, depression, eating disorders. I could go on. ### 1/5 — Booo *2015-01-12, version 2.2.5* Why a canabis Leaf as your icon? A reference drug addiction app should be represented by something toxic (like a booze bottle) shame on you... Your karma is screwed....goddamn irresponsible doctors... hypocrite. ### 1/5 — Just google the info *2014-12-21, version 2.2.5* There's like 5 paragraph on each topic. Not in depth.....just google search the info and save your self some time. There's not any pics. Waste. ### 1/5 — Weak *2014-10-05, version 2.2.5* I'm so unimpressed with this app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love this app *2015-03-12, version 2.2.5* This app is great!
