Ratings and reviews

Doesn't have a particularly expansive library of knowledge (the time I used it, it only had a select number of articles under general subject categories. These articles never seemed to change or be cycled for new ones). Furthermore there was no search bar or any way to access anything that wasn't already presented in one of the aforementioned articles. Overall, kind of disappointing.

It has no search function. You pick a field then scroll through dozens of entries, hoping to find something related to your question.

the app keeps closing. needs to be updated with support on Android lollipop.
