### 1/5 — Register

*2023-05-28*

I downloaded the app on apple phone and I don’t have a section to register to use the app. PLEASE ADVISE

**Developer response:** Hello, please go to www.neiglobal.com to create a free account; you will then log into the app with the username/password you create for that account.

### 5/5 — I use this app every single day

*2022-03-25*

Worth the price. This app is so useful. It is accurate, concise and easy to quickly navigate. I use it every day for prescribing psychotropic medication. From dosing schedules to recommended lab monitoring to pharmacokinetics, common side effects, best augmenting strategies, it really has everything. It uses the same format as printed Stahl textbooks, and having it in app format means it is always handy and never out of date. A subscription gives you access to useful short CME videos as well. I love this app.

### 5/5 — Up-to-date and helpful

*2022-01-21, version 3.0.8*

Super easy to use. Also has the child/adolescent information incorporated 🙌 I’ve found the app is updated with new approvals/indications/etc which is helpful while waiting for the next edition to printed. Thanks again!

### 5/5 — Exceptional Psychopharmacology

*2021-06-01*

This should be required for all prescribers of psychiatric meds. It answers all the questions that should be asked before prescribing and allows my care of patients to be as ‘elegant’ and exceptional as they deserve!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We are happy that you enjoy the product and find it as valuable as we do.

### 1/5 — How do I create an account? It just shows the login page

*2021-03-02*

How do I create an account? It just shows the login page

**Developer response:** Please contact customer service for further assistance, either via email to customerservice@neiglobal.com or by phone at 888-535-5600. 
We look forward to assisting you!

### 2/5 — Unable to use

*2020-09-13*

Downloaded on iPhone 11, won’t even allow me to sign up. Too bad, app was highly recommended by a friend.

**Developer response:** Apologies that you had trouble creating an account! To log in, you need to first create a free account on our website (www.neiglobal.com). You can then trial the app for free for 90 days. NEI Members pay an annual fee that includes the app along with a library of online educational content and discounts to our live conferences.

### 2/5 — Please update dark mode incompatibility

*2020-05-19*

With the most recent update, text in the search field is not visible while in dark mode, nor can you see the text or indicating whether you are in adult or child/adolescent mode. Great app, but this detracts from its usefulness and appeal

**Developer response:** Thank you for reporting the issue you are experiencing. We have discovered that this is the result of enabling dark mode. As a workaround, you can disable dark mode in iOS > Settings. Shortly, we will have an app update to eliminate this issue so you can keep dark mode permanently enabled without issue. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at customerservice@neiglobal.com. Have a nice day!

### 1/5 — App is not working on iPhone 11

*2020-05-15*

Totally blank/clear text.  Cannot see any information, only outlines of where text would be.

**Developer response:** Thank you for reporting the issue you are experiencing. We have discovered that this is the result of enabling dark mode. As a workaround, you can disable dark mode in iOS > Settings. Shortly, we will have an app update to eliminate this issue so you can keep dark mode permanently enabled without issue. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at customerservice@neiglobal.com. Have a nice day!

### 5/5 — Great App - wish it had percentage release for stimulants

*2020-04-08*

Update: the developers got back to me about the release of stimulants within 2 days of my posting a review requesting it. I am very impressed by the rapid response. 

This app is great for helping with medication choices and is much more detailed than epocrates in terms of receptors. The information about children and adolescents is sound from the perspective of this child and adolescent psychiatrist.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! If you click on Dosage Forms within each of the stimulants, you will see a table that has some detail about duration and peak of effects. In addition, we are currently reviewing the stimulant entries in an effort to provide more detail about all of the numerous formulations.

### 1/5 — Log in?

*2020-02-29*

To use the app, you apparently have to log in...but there are no instructions for doing so, nor is there a graphic way of doing so. Cosmic psychiatric joke? Looks pretty from the outside, though.

**Developer response:** Apologies that you had trouble logging in! To log in, you need to use the same username/password as you would on our website (www.neiglobal.com). You can create a free account on our website and then trial the app for 90 days.
