Tried to uninstall and reinstalling it didn’t work. App may need to be updated. ### 3/5 — Upgrade to consider *2020-01-17, version 1.5.4* It would be very helpful to be able to save the units for my facility so that as the IP I can have all my trained observers record on this app and send their data to me in a consistent format. As is, they have to take the time to individually set up the units and type of persons observed. ### 1/5 — No email *2019-12-09, version 1.5.4* The app will not pull up the keyboard so you can email the observations. Please fix this! ### 3/5 — No longer works *2019-09-05, version 1.5.4* App worked great until last month. Now it will not let me email my observations so I can then upload them to our data base where I work. ### 5/5 — Great app and works well *2019-06-18, version 1.5.4* A previous reviewer gave it one star because nothing happens when you do the final step to ‘click Record observation’. That’s because you DON’T click on that field. To confirm, you tap on the green arrow and slide it to the right. Once you’ve done that, the observation is recorded and the app goes back to record another observation. ### 1/5 — Nursing *2018-05-09, version 1.5.3* Not able to email from this app ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time *2018-04-23, version 1.5.3* I thought this would be a great app and it is relatively easy to set up however it will not track observations or send them. When you click “ CONFIRM OBSERVATION”, it’s dead in the water. ### 1/5 — Needs a serious update/bug fixes *2015-06-09, version 1.5.1* Only gets 1 start because I can't give zero, the app won't let me add or delete pre entered places or occupations. Needs some serious work. ### 1/5 — One star right now. *2015-06-07, version 1.5.1* Great app when it properly works. So far I am able to open up add one new title then it goes to my home screen. I then have to reopen the app, get back to where I am, click on something again then boom back to my home screen. Emails don't send, the app freezes and have to force close the app and open it again. Is this app actually optimized for iOS 8 and what ever the latest version we have? Maybe you all should focus on get these basic kinks worked out before expanding to the next innovation unless you of course multitask the update with the new genre of uses with a more sufficient operation of the original version. ### 3/5 — Can't edit *2015-04-18, version 1.5.1* Won't let me edit default list. Every time I try it kicks me out of the app. Otherwise I like it and it is very easy to use. I just want to be able to edit it to reflect my departments and skill mix. ## Frequently asked questions about iScrub Lite ### How does iScrub Lite help with hand hygiene? iScrub Lite allows healthcare professionals to efficiently record hand-hygiene observations, including time, location, and job role.
