## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Não está fazendo cálculos

*2021-10-04*

Está impossível de usar depois da atualização! A vírgula entre os números não sai! (,) e o cálculo sai errado ficou péssimo

### 1/5 — Error

*2021-09-30*

We can’t introduce decimals in creatinine data!!! It’s a bug??

### 1/5 — Utterly useless unlike the calculator on their website.

*2021-06-04*

I need - no, REQUIRE - a GFR calculator that lets me individualize results to my patient’s individual height and weight. Too many of my patients are way off of ‘standard’ parameters for that to make sense. I had an ancient app that would do this but it no longer works on the current iOS upgrade. I was hoping this app would do so since the cGFR calculator on their website has that as an option. No such luck - and that makes this app useless to me. It was removed immediately after downloading.

### 3/5 — eGFR but no BSA

*2022-05-03*

This gives you the current 2021 CKD-EPI calculator, however, it does not include the ability to factor in BSA (body surface area - height/weight). The National Kidney Foundation web site has the 2021 calculator with the ability to include BSA. If you do not factor in BSA, you may get a less precise eGFR value. Most national labs also do not factor in BSA, so you might have a conversation with your physician to see her/his thoughts. Just accepting the basic CKD-EPI 2021 formula, may place you in a GFR category and ACR category, you do not deserve.  The discussion within this app notes the necessity to factor in BSA to the CKD-EPI 2021 equation, but the equation included with this app does not allow this option.

### 3/5 — Não é possível digitar o valor correto da creatinina e outros

*2021-09-27*

Pelo no iPhone com iOS 15 , não é possível digitar o valor numérico correto , apenas inteiros ( creatinina 1.5, digita-se apenas 15 ) , gerando cálculos incorretos

### 3/5 — Confusion

*2020-12-09*

Just clear when we select male/female and black/other the grey option is selected one or the white one?

### 3/5 — Nurse

*2019-08-14*

Very handy, but there is a flaw that must be addressed.  The race and sex fields change when they should not.  Tap on “male” for example and tap on on it a second, third, fourth time.  Why does it change back and forth and back and forth?   Please fix that behavior.   Thanks.

### 3/5 — Not bad

*2016-10-30*

Useful app, but due to the colours used on the slider switches for male/female and black/other it's difficult to see what option you've actually picked.

### 5/5 — Help

*2021-09-28*

We can’t introduce the coma in creatinine data.

### 5/5 — Excellente

*2019-05-03*

La plus simple d’usage et très propédeutique . Un référence

### 5/5 — CKD pt + former Med Professional

*2017-10-30*

I wish I’d known about this several years ago-it would have saved a few grey hairs.  I’m 57, a former RN-Paramedic who had to leave Medical School in my final year due to growing health issues related to my genetic disorder, nail-patella syndrome.  I (and mySon) were also born with just 1, affected kidney.  It wasn’t until the last two years that the proteinuria and overall function began to decline. Because I’m not a transplant candidate, we’re keeping an extremely close eye on everything.  Thank you for making this available-AND for everything else you guys do to help patients like myself!!
PS I sent the link to this app to my primary & nephro -neither of whom had been previously aware of it.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2016-02-10*

Use this app everyday.  Only wish you had a Apple Watch companion.

### 5/5 — Just what I need

*2013-08-28*

### 5/5 — Brief &easy

*2012-10-09*

*2012-03-21*
