### 1/5 — App is broken, can’t view the test results in the “All Complete” tab

*2025-09-04*

I was wondering when you guys will fix results showing up in the “All Complete” tab. Your last update to the app shows “connection error” with a Retry button that does nothing. Do you know when this will be fixed so that we can view test result?

### 1/5 — RBdvm

*2025-06-12, version 12.2.0*

Since updating unable to log in

### 1/5 — Recent update

*2025-04-05*

I have never had an issue with this app since originally installing it years ago. I updated it a week ago and now it will not let me login. I can login on the website with the same credentials but not the app.. 

Please fix this bug!!!

### 1/5 — Cannot connect

*2024-11-30, version 11.7.0*

Since the upgrade the app won’t connect and I can’t see any results

### 2/5 — Good but hard to use on remote device

*2023-05-20, version 10.6*

Good connectivity.
But very hard to look at when on a smaller device. It doesn’t auto fit the screen.

### 4/5 — Multiple Idexx Accounts

*2023-02-28, version 10.6*

Would be a great idea for VetConnect to allow a unified view of multiple Idexx accounts (ideally with a filter). 

As a locum vet, a recurring theme is bloods or diagnostics run at one branch (with a separate Idexx billing/supplies account) are not visible online at the other.

Most practices have their vets deployed across all sites, it would be so useful to have linked accounts for one business so you just login to VetConnect once but be able to see everything.

Submission forms could just have a mandatory drop down saying “which branch”.

Please consider this as an update.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2022-09-04*

It’s the Labor Day holiday weekend, my own horse got sick Friday morning, I submitted samples Friday and all I can get from this app is that the lab hasn’t received samples. I’ve called and am pretty happy with the phone support but this app is a loser this weekend. I have to call on the phone to get any results.

### 1/5 — Vet Connect

*2022-06-29*

Unreliable. Poorly defined DVM filters. Too frequently does not integrate well regarding Idexx labs and Cornerstone.

### 2/5 — I enjoy the convenience but still needs work to be really helpful

*2022-06-20, version 10.4*

Good for receiving results with the convenience of your iPhone or iPad but trending results is not good at all. For example serial results like t4, progesterone, CK are hard to tell what test was taken when and which result to use. Also we use the xray pacs system and the images are often way too small to view.

### 4/5 — U/A results slowed dow

*2022-03-29, version 10.3*

Since the recent upgrade the U/A results are much slower to post than they used to be!!
