### 1/5 — When will you update to latest iOS?

*2020-01-23, version 2.2.5*

When will you update to latest iOS ?

### 3/5 — Very basic App

*2018-05-27, version 2.2.5*

It's a very basic App with minimal information.  Could be more thorough, which would make it an much more useful App!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2017-04-28, version 2.2.5*

The best app

### 5/5 — Jeff

*2016-08-13, version 2.2.5*

Love it

### 2/5 — Not much content

*2016-04-27, version 2.2.5*

I opted to pay 99 cents for this over some of the free herb tracker apps due to the "notes" feature.  However, the first several herbs I looked up we're not in the database. I'm going to try to get my money back.

### 5/5 — Herbs

*2015-10-02, version 2.2.5*

Works for me

### 5/5 — Very good

*2015-09-19, version 2.2.5*

Very good keep up the good work

### 1/5 — Not a very good app

*2015-04-14, version 2.2.5*

On looking at the information , especially on soy , one soy is not a herb at all , so is not used for memory problems it causes meme rosy problems , the info that is given is not all correct , I have yet to look further at the app , to find more wrong info , I. Glad it's not a paid app, please re look at the info you have posted on your app before you tell people what things are used for and correct info as herbs can kill people if taken wrongly

### 1/5 — Missing herbs

*2015-02-09, version 2.2.5*

This app doesn't contain all the useful herbs out there. Content is not helpful as it could be.

### 1/5 — Medicinal Herbs - very basic

*2015-01-25, version 2.2.5*

This app is alright for someone who knows nothing about medicinal herbs. It's extremely basic and has just a few of the most common herbs listed. The concept of the app is very good- and with expanding the data base - perhaps also to include vitamins and minerals - this could be a fantastic app! 
Don't bother with it - unless you know nothing about medicinal herbs, then it might be useful.
