Dorland Medical Illustrated for Negative User Reviews

✓ BioanthropologistI purchased this app 10 days ago (on 16 April 2012). Until last night, I had only used the text-based aspect of the app, and I've been pleased with the definitions and the information. However, last night, when I tried to use the audio function, I discovered that it does not work. Accordingly, I used the developer's online submission form to inform the developer of the problem, and to ask for assistance. On the plus side: I received a rapid response addressing my concerns. On the negative side: the response noted that the company is aware of the problem and is working to resolve it. Let me be clear: I don't consider it a dramatic negative that the app has a problem -- these things happen. What I do find to be a negative is the fact that I did not see this information on the app page. Given that this non-functionality is a known issue, I believe that the developer should indicate that on the app page, and inform the potential buyer that the company is working to resolve the issue. Thus, if the audio function is crucial to a potential buyer's purchasing decision, she can make an informed decision about her purchase. Owing to these issues involving the lack of up-front communication and the lack of functionality of part of the program, I currently rate the program at 3 stars. When the program is updated and fully functional, I'll revisit my review..BioanthroVersion: 4.0.1

✓ Excellent content, but poor user experience.• Content can be found anywhere on the internet, the only reason it’s excellent in this phone is that users have offline access to it. • Swiping from the left edge of the screen to go back doesn’t work. It’s something that works across all native iOS apps. Swiping down to invoke search, bring the keyboard and select the previously searched word on the search bar, is not a thing either. I paid 55$ for this app. The developers should really work on the user interface. I’m usually busy and studying when I use the app. It shouldn’t distract me from my studying. I hope someone read this and make some changes..Sohail.wahabVersion: 10.0.11

✓ Not bad as pocket assistantI use this app from time to time, better than carrying the book !!, but for price i prefer to help people by lowering it cost, you could get more sales!!.Crank91191Version: 5.2.22

✓ Won’t stop bugging me for a ratingWon’t stop bugging me for a rating.Danw00Version: 10.0.11

✓ A good start, but many improvements are needed.Let's start with the fact this app is nowhere CLOSE to being worth $50, let alone $30. They see to have some great features (abbreviation list, flash cards, a great dictionary), but they all seem to be underdeveloped. First, it doesn't appear to have been properly formatted for an electronic device - you can barely see the print! Secondly, as an illustrated version, I expect some decent diagrams, but there are very few. There are many features of the iPad I would like to see utilized for this app before I could happily recommend it. The only benefit I see with the app, is the ability to more quickly search the dictionary than with its hardbook counterpart. Oh, and it's lighter to carry..Lizzieb7Version: 5.2.22

✓ Need improvmentPlease, stop asking me to rate the app. And also for the amount of money it costs, you really need to improve it..Al-TaweelVersion: 10.0.11

✓ OkayThe dictionary is okay. But I cannot seem the turn off word of the day. Which, by the way is the same word every day!!.FestusLunnVersion: 10.0.3

✓ Not bad but can be improvedA little clunky. Functionality can be improved..ShezamjVersion: 10.0.3

✓ Not working for certain words sometimeI was searching for the meaning of the prefix noto in the word notochord and when I do so I got this 1. Noto : no result 2. Not: no result 3.Noto-: no result 4.Not-: no result I discovered though you have to do search with Not( Or Not(o) To actually get result!!!! Not intuitive and streamlined Some crashes also happened many times on my up to date iOS on my iPhone 11 Max pro I expect more from software that is 50$ prices One more thing the software is not well maintained by developers as it is not bug fixed frequently like other software, you can get this from the last version they published to App Store.HraqVersion: 10.0.11

✓ Stop bothering usThis app is always asking for us to rate it 5 stars. Really annoying. Hope this will end now. (Great content however).Dr. Dj Guide TonesVersion: 10.0.3

✓ Limited ContentCompared to some other Medical Dictionary Apps, I feel this one is limited in content, user ability and the interface isn’t as smooth..SuperGrVersion: 10.0.11

✓ DisappointedThis dictionary was recommended by my professor in a medical terminology course. I thought the iPad version would be more useful than a hard copy but I am disappointed. The flashcards are not overly functional if you have different study sets you need to form. Having the word pronounced for you is nice but that is basically the only positive use of technology they use with this app. Everything else is just like having a book...nothing else is interactive. There is so much more they could have done. You pay a little less than a paper copy of the book but at this price it would have been nice to see more electronic benefits. I could have purchased a much cheaper app for my purposes. I feel like I just paid for the name and reputation. Other companies are doing a better job when it comes to electronic medical reference materials..70093200Version: 5.2.22

✓ Great, but needs a little more workWhile I can't vouch for the completeness of this app (I'm merely a junior in college taking anatomy), I can tell you that this app works quite well. The four different ways to search are very useful. Straight searching and keyword search are very responsive. Fuzzy and wildcard queries take a little longer, but the delay is minimal. Unfortunately, I could not find a "Help" section for this app (even in the appendix) and had to ever back to the app store page to learn how to use some of the features. There are a surprising number of pictures with plenty of detail for my needs. Zooming in is quite and many diagrams have high resolution. My one complaint is that many entries are merely subordinate sections of a major word and require that you scroll down to find the word your searching for among the other related words. I feel like this app really should bring you straight to the word your queried, or at least highlighted the word to make it easier to find. Furthermore, the "linking" feature needs some work..MdwittenbergVersion: 4.0.1
