### 1/5 — Not worth $75

*2025-02-28*

This is not the complete DSM and does not include all disorders. Very disappointed!!

### 1/5 — Horrible waste of money

*2024-01-17*

Terrible App. Not formatted for my iPhone at all. My screen does not at all look like what is shown on the screen in the Apple Store. It’s all headings in large font while diagnostic criteria are barely readable underneath - or not even present. There is also a very obtrusive  Add button at the bottom of the screen that interferes my being able to read the important information it is covering. It was the worst money - by far - that I’ve ever spent on an app.

### 1/5 — Expensive and incomplete

*2023-10-29*

The app is 75 dollars and does not even include the full list of DSM-V diagnoses. It also appears as if they aren’t doing anything to make this a complete diagnostic manual guide.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2023-09-13*

I can’t believe I just paid $75 just to get into the app and realize it’s blank of information. It doesn’t even have all the diagnoses and those that are listed, many don’t have any criteria information when you open the diagnosis. The page is white. Essentially you’re paying a bunch of money to have diagnostic codes at your finger tip, and not even all of them, at that! 🙄

### 4/5 — Thanks for the improvement

*2024-01-19*

The first version of this app was fantastic. Easy to read, very user friendly. Another version was released that ended up being one of the worst fails in app history. It was almost as if someone intentionally butchered it just to prove they could do something evil and malicious and get away with it. This latest version is a throwback to the basics. It seems as if previous feedback was incorporated and a mostly solid product was put out. Thanks for listening.

### 5/5 — Works!

*2023-11-05*

I bought this today and it works great on iphone. I see the full criteria and specifiers, the links work well to take you to more specific information.  It’s easy to use and very convenient to check diagnostic criteria! Recommend! 
The downside is definitely the price!
