User reviews

Great app overall

I like the app and the information provided is great. Only problem is the “Question of the Day” is buggy at times. I lost a few streaks because it states it needs internet access. The app has access to WiFi and cellular networks. I lost my streak several times. Overall, a great app for the information provided.

No good!

There is something wrong with this app on many levels.

The built-in medical advice is surprisingly limited. For example, look up bug bites and you'll find it very lacking. No info on chiggers for example, a common concern for those spending a lot of time outdoors. Overall, it is a pretty app but has very limited useful medical information.

The app claims it does not collect any data that is tied to the user. However, their privacy policy seems to say otherwise. The app has features that only work if you provide precise location tracking. I do not have confidence that this location data isn't stored and shared with third-party companies. A medical app like this should have a simple privacy policy -- that NO personal data is stored or used in any manner (outside of things like contacting support about app issues).

The hazards info (bears, ticks, etc) seems compelling, but in my use of it I found it inaccurate and therefore sort of useless.

There are many new articles that are online only. Why would anything in this app be online only? It is VERY likely that anyone who actually needs the info this app offers would be out of cell range.

The bottom line is that the CONCEPT of this app is compelling, but the implementation is lacking.

Waste of time and money

A waste of money and time. Medical advice should be from real live experts not bots. What a scam and frankly a dangerous misleading app that could cause more harm than good.

Don’t waste your money

The last couple of months the quality has gone way down. It reads like it is AI generated and on the website all the doctors have left!

Typical Worthless Expensive App

It’s your typical app from Facebook, spam you with incorrect info and beg for money before you can even access the app. Don’t waste your money on money hungry predatory companies like this. It’s a scam. Garbage app.
