### 3/5 — Good Content, Needs Adjustments

*2013-11-06*

Love the content--for the most part can find a wide variety of topics discussed. Update is visually appealing, but instead of adding ability to run in the background (still not present), now stops playing when device idles (so you now chew up battery keeping the screen on), and it also now pauses if you rewind or fastforward (which it did not do before). Would be great (5 stars) if these are fixed.

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your experience, MateoAndante. As of today, February 1, 2023, we have released a new iOS app with many new features and benefits, including the ability to play ReachMD content in the background as you use other apps on your device and sync with CarPlay. We hope you will give our new app a try and be a part of the knowledge with ReachMD!

### 4/5 — Downloads

*2012-06-15*

Good material, but PLEASE add feature to download the file to listen to offline.

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your feedback, dstuckey. We’ve released a new app today (February 1, 2023) that allows users to choose their preferred media format, including downloading a podcast file to listen to offline. You can even tune into ReachMD during your daily commute with CarPlay. We hope you will be part of the knowledge and try our new app!

### 4/5 — Nearly perfect

*2010-09-20*

This a fantastic app. So far, I've had no software issues and the app runs smooth and trouble free. However, I would like a more diverse content. The information for my field is plentiful, but bit more mental health related topics would be appreciated. I do recommend this app to all my friends.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2009-09-06, version 0*

AN MD told me about this app the other day and I got it, it's awesome, worth paying for. I'm a RN on a busy med tele floor and this allows you to stay up to date, refresh what you know or learn something new. No problems logging in.  5 stars from me!

### 3/5 — Great, but room for improvement!

*2009-08-02*

Overall this is a great service, but there is room for improvement. Mainly when it comes to navigation. I would love to see a more robust favorite function in which the user could mark topics or various series for easy access. Keep it up guys!

### 4/5 — Very good but...

*2009-07-02*

Well this a very good app. I personally feel it will help me keep upto date with the latest going on in my field, a couple of suggestions, somehow volume of the station is too low when put on the iPhone speaker, when listening to any station on pressing back the stream stops please make it continuous till the app is exited or station is changes, I also had some issues streaming most of the streams except the live stream. Over all very good idea for the app. 4/5 Stars.

### 5/5 — Very handy

*2009-06-21, version 0*

Helpful retaining medical information for anyone in the medical field. Great app!

### 5/5 — Great for folks in health care

*2009-06-01*

I had no sign in issues. I could search, play back, and stream with no issues. Kind of embarassing that clear channel has a better streaming app than Sirius (non-existant).

*2015-04-12*

App needs to run in background. It's probably been about a year and NO UPDATE???

Can't register. Profession and specialty tabs are blank. I enter info but sign in does nt respond

### 1/5 — Emergency Fellow

*2010-04-16, version 0*

This is at least a four if not a five star app -it gives physicians a direct connection to a a wealth of up to date medical information...

### 1/5 — MedicalRadio

*2009-05-29*

Might be good if you could sign in. Tried this and the other ReachMD app. Several times I tried! Checked all registration info which was good and it just continues to kick me back to registration page.

### 2/5 — Bug fixes

*2015-11-17*

I love the content, but the app will not allow me to login. I have to either listen live or go to the internet to login and select topics. The app also needs to be able to run in the background or at least have the option to do so.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, Bdalton02. As of February 1, 2023, we have released a new iOS app that allows users to access content without a required login and can play in the background as you use other apps on your device.

### 2/5 — Could be better, much better!

*2011-08-02*

I like this app and the idea behind it. I do have three complaints.

1. It does not have a favorites feature so that you could save programs/podcasts in a favorite list for easy access later.

2. It lacks some of the features from the ReachMD website. Such as the ability to download the podcast directly to your phone. If I was able to download the podcast for later listening, I wouldn't mind not having a favorite's feature. 

3. Won't run in the background while multitasking. Making it somewhat useless at times.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, Fototico. We’ve released a new app today (February 1, 2023) that allows you to save programs to your own personal library for access at any time as well as the ability to choose your preferred media format. With these new features, you are also able to download a podcast file to listen to an episode offline. The new app also syncs with CarPlay and can play programs in the background while you use other apps on your device. We hope you will give our new app a try and be a part of the knowledge with ReachMD!

### 3/5 — They Still Make You?

*2021-11-15, version 2.4*

I used to really enjoy listening to this on XM radio back in 2009 until they took it off the air. I downloaded this app about 4 years ago and pretty much forgot about it. I was cleaning up my iPad and launched this and it still works! Doesn’t work on iPad visually but I was still able to listen to a nice lecture and earn some CME. Amazing. I guess I’ll start listening again. Unfortunately it won’t play in background and that’s a major issue. Perhaps they are elsewhere like YouTube. In any case, it’s like running into an old friend.  You guys need to make this app compatible with iPad. I hardly ever do anything in this phone anymore except Facebook and YouTube. Thanks for sticking around so long.
