Ratings and reviews

Not sure what happened recently, but the app doesn't work anymore. I tried uninstalling it and install it again, but same issue. Basically, when I launch it it blocks with a message saying "backing up files to Google drive". I tried leaving it a few minutes to see maybe it'll stop but no change... And the screen flashes so much that it literally hurts my eyes. Please someone look into this as this app is really useful for oncologists and I used it a lot prior to this issue...

Was functional, but for the last two weeks goes into a loop while trying to upload content to Google Drive. Unable to pass this loop. Tried reinstalling the app, but the problem persists. The app is totally unusable.

Excellent resource for a doctor in developing country indeed! And up to date as well!
