Great usage

Love the patient education section under medications. Everything about this app is wondering except I found some missing Meds. I couldnt find the Meds used in very common bowel preparation such as pico-salax. Other than that this app is wonderful ! Beats med scape.

Good Information

This app responds quickly & has good information. It is geared towards American medications so some Meds are harder to find than others. You have to look in several topic areas to get all the information for student research, it is great that south information is available in one place.

Great app!

Excellent app. Could use some coloured images. Great use for on the go information.

Disappointed

Paid for a lot of money for this app, very disappointed!! Stopped working...but customer service refusing to help me sort it out!! They claimed I had to repurchase this overpriced app. Still not working!!

Love it!

The best nursing app out there by far! Our school switched from Skyscape to Unbound Medicine and we love it. Great customer service as well and far better than our previous vendor.

Great app for nursing students! But...

One of the most comprehensive and helpful apps for nursing school! The only complaint is requiring an update every time you login, is impractical! Because time of the essence a lot of times when you are trying to look sth up quickly, and wifi its not always available & data plans arent cheap! If they address this issue and dont make it mandatory to update content at each login, the app would be close to perfect!

Used to be an amazing app. Now its a waste.

This app was AMAZING. I never needed a textbook or google or anything. I highly recommended it to all of my nurse friends. But now, for the past year or so (after putting in I think $250 into this app), THIS APP IS HORRIBLE. Literally every single time I open this app it wont let me look up the info I need because it has to update. I just updated it last week! And the week before that! Normally I am very patient about an app needing an update, but this app sometimes takes HOURS to update. I could just use google and get the same info much quicker. Also about 90% of the time, itll get to its final leg of the update and then tell me that it has failed to update due to connection or storage unavailable. So obnoxious. Why would you (app developers I hope you are reading this) have me waiting HOURS to use this app just for you to tell me the update failed due to connection? Why not tell me that right off the bat? And storage issues..? This app shouldnt take up so much space on my phone. Maybe they can get rid of the less used features when they are making room for all this "new", "great" stuff that I dont even use. I use it to look up meds and some diseases. Thats it. Im very unhappy with this app and I consider it a waste of money and would NOT recommend to anyone. I would love to speak with someone from customer service of this app if possible. Advice? Stop making the updates so frequent, stop forcing me to update before I can do anything on the app, stop making the app take up so much space and stop making the app update take hours. Thank you.

UPDATE Great Info

Previous review: Using this on my new iPhone 6s Plus is quite frustrating. I got the bigger screen to view more info on the screen but this app DOES NOT run in native resolution. It is a zoomed view and I cant get over it! Now with native resolution! Thanks guys!

Great nursing resource

No matter what your main field of concentration is in, this great app will help you. I use this when Im on the floor providing care and in the class room. Do yourself a favor and purchase this app..

Thank you so much!

I have learned so much from this app! Everything is organized and very easy to find.

Nursing Central

Great reference tool for nurses. I use mine almost every day Im working for looking up meds and diagnosis that Im not familiar with. This app is helpful in many ways!

Awesome app

I have had this app since my 3rd semester in nursing school and I wish I got it sooner as it has so many good resources for clinical. I even used this app to help me study for my NCLEX and it has been so helpful!! As a registered nurse today, I still use this app for helpful information and I still find myself using it to look up certain medications I am not familiar with. It is a must download app and is worth your money.

Amazing

Love this app! It was required for my Nursing Program. We all dragged our feet about the cost, but it is well worth the money!

Great information

Its expensive. But for nursing school and a working environment, I couldnt have asked for anything better. I wish I had learned about it earlier. It would have saved hours upon hours through school of tedious and monotonous work. Would definitely purchase it again. Using it on both the iPad Pro and a 6s. No problems at all!

I recommend this for nursing school!!

Easy to use! Its worth it.

RN

If you dont have it, get it!! Have used it since nursing school and throughout my practice as a working RN.

Very helpful

I got this app in nursing school. It has been very helpful in all of my nursing jobs and personal life. I use it more than the medication tools at work. I highly recommend it. I mostly use the drug and dictionary features.

Pros and Cons...

Pros: 1. It has an easy to read, straight to the point format. It saved my butt so many times on the job as a new grad. 2. The information listed covers everything you need to know in everyday lingo. 3. I prefer over micromedex. Easier to read. Cons: 1. It requires frequent updates and if you refuse to update, it wont work. Updating uses up memory on your iPhone/iPod, etc. 2. Only thing micromedex does better is the IV compatibility format.

Easy to use

Lots of info and no heavy books!

I recommend this for nursing school!!

Easy to use!
