Love it

### 5/5 — Good app

*2019-09-23*

Like the app but the free version has a line of ads across the bottom that can be a little distracting. I have learned that if I purchase the app these do not appear on the screen. I’ll do so. I’m a pharmacist and we use the app to help patients in Long Term Care facilities read the names of their medications and to recognize their pills. It’s helping a lot.

**Developer response:** Hi Richard, I'm glad you like the app. I don't like the ads either, but sadly I have bills to pay. If the ads really bother you, I will appreciate it if you consider purchasing to remove ads and support us : )

### 5/5 — Mag gladd

Awesome!

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot !
