Quick and easy
Not sure if these other reviews are for an earlier version, but I like this app. It’s easy to get in and answer questions fast. I can open sessions I’ve already started on my laptop without a problem. Questions seem to default at 10 in a session but you can change it in settings to whatever you want. Good, solid questions on an easy to use app. Thanks Medstudy!

What is this
The app doesn’t let you open any features. You can’t even open a partially finished set. You can only start new sets and the max the app candle is 10 questions. This is ludicrous for the amount I paid. Go look at the uworld app if you need notes.
Horrible app
Honestly such an annoying app to use. First off, I challenged myself to do some questions every day, and it can’t even keep track of my streak. I’m on day 28 and it randomly reset to 11 for some unknown reason.
Also hate that you can’t pause a question set. I like to do questions on the go between patients and having it reset is annoying.
Also why can’t we see a previously completed set on the app? If we wanted to review
Hate that there is no “highlight” or “copy/paste” to the notes section of the questions
We should be able to access our notes on the go for quick studying.
Honestly to every developer on this app, please do better.

Fine question bank; terrible app. Better off using a browser to access the question bank.
Not user friendly. The app has very limited features compared to the web version. You can’t resume unfinished question sets that were started via a browser. You can’t do practice tests with the app. It is like MedStudy put out a bare bones app for the sake of making an app. MedStudy clearly doesn’t care about making a fully functional app. You are better off opening a browser on your device and using MedStudy that way. If you are between MedStudy and another question bank, strongly consider the other source.

Not great
It’s shockingly basic. You can only start questions with set 10 numbers at a time. You can’t resume any previous sessions and can’t even resume the “10” questions if you stay off for too long. Not sure why it s made to have such simple functions compared to the website.
MedStudy v uworld
Compared to uworld, the MedStudy app is underwhelming and disappointing. Not sure why you can’t bookmark questions so you can review them later.
Annoying to Use. Why am I paying all this $$$?!
I bought the complete package which includes audio pearls, digital book and qbank. I realized you can’t simultaneously listen to audio on your phone and follow along on the website. It constantly logs you out of one if you’re on the other! For $800 I would love to listen while also reading at the same time. Why is this not possible?!
Also the audio is just one giant 6 hour file. It breaks it up by topic so you can jump around but if you want to pause you have to hit the tiny pause button on the 6 hour timeline. NO ability to rewind or fast forward. The basics of any audio program! If you accidentally go to another section you have to start from the beginning of the topic. No way to navigate through a topic if you wanted to replay an important part of the audio. Have to start all over again. Again for $800 why can they not make a better app?!

Missing key features
You can only create question sets with a maximum of ten questions (compared to 150 on the website). Also, there is no “select all” button when choosing topics, so if you want to do a general review of all topics you have to manually select each of the roughly 30 different topics every single time… for each set of ten questions…… so annoying

Quick Study
This app looks nice and makes it easy for me to quickly study a few questions on the go.
