Very good app.

Excellent app. I have been able to scan medical instruments by shape, sku, and barcodes consistently.

Must have app for sterilization departments

SID is an amazing app for identifying surgical instruments, finding accurate information, accessing IFUs, and more.

The scanner works perfectly on my phone, allowing me to identify instruments just by pointing the camera at them—such a great improvement from previous versions!

Plus, it’s completely FREE, making it an invaluable tool for anyone working with surgical instruments. Highly recommended!

SID is awesome!

Our team is now using SID to identify instruments, and we are way faster than we used to be. Highly recommended!

Keeps getting better

I started using this app a few years ago. I’m glad to see that they keep making it better. It is helpful to look up instrumentation by using the catalog number on the instrument to find IFU info. I’d like to see more high quality instrument photos.

Please update !!!

App needs to be updated… the photo imaging to see what it tells you doesn’t work

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. SID 3.1 was recently released. It can identify instruments by scanning a barcode, an SKU, or a photo.
