Once was good

Now is slow and screen jumps around in attempt to get you to click an ad. Requires frequent updates. Used to be my go to. No longer.

Too bloated now

Long term user of the app as a quick resource. It has now become much too bloated and slow to load and slow to search. Make it faster, minimize any ads or other popups. Those of us in the medical field who want to use it as a quick reference don’t want to wait for 10-15 sec before we can search or have to click through some news popup or other interruption.

Skip the app and use the web

I removed one star each for the following reasons.

First for some reason, my newsfeed has displayed the same stories for four months now. Not sure what the issue is, because neither refreshing nor updating the app have made a difference. No matter how interesting the stories were when posted, they are a bit dated at this point.

Second, at the end of the day, I prefer a larger font for reading, yet there does not appear to be a way to enlarge it. Please, Medscape, take pity upon those of us with tired eyes and make it easier to enlarge the font size. If it already exists, make it easier to figure out how.
