AHA Guideline on the go App merely uses the MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission to ensure the safe and secured usage of the content in the App. App's design files and content files are kept in compressed format in the app's asset storage. These files need to be de-compressed programmatically by using the file storage as temporary storage to transfer the files in the internal storage of the App at the first startup of the App.
App uses the file storage only at the first launch of the App to ensure that users should be able to view the content in the App without any glitches so it covers the core functionality of the App.
App uses the file storage later to save the bookmarks and notes saved against the content in the App. Saved bookmarks and notes facilitate the usage of the App on another device of the users.

Ratings and reviews

Cannot sign on. It prompts the user to pick classification, which is Physician in my case. And then it requires you to choose a specialty before you can proceed. But there is no drop-down menu or fillable field to specify specialty. And when you tap on submit it just takes you back around and again in a circle loop. Seems like a simple fix for the app designer but they must not be seeing any of this feedback.

Does not work. I can pick my classification with no issue. However, I am unable to pick a specialty. It doesn't even provide a drop-down menu to choose anything. It won't let you move on if you dont pick something for both classification and specialy. I tried all sorts of workarounds, and nothing works.

Would have given it full marks except the app is buggy. The window that makes you select your role and speciality doesn't let you move from there. Occasionally it will allow you to move forward and actually look at the algorithms. The apple version of the app works fine on my iPad, so its disappointing that the playstore version doesn't work. Very disappointing.
