I changed phones and was unable to log in to the app. I sent a mail just the morning and I got a very swift response. Using the EMDEX app seamlessly now!!!

The app is almost seamless. The layout of the features for each drug makes it so. The color choices for the app are soft and appealing. Having the app has made identifying the wierd brand names I keep hearing from patients and even prescriptions easier. I would like to have a layer for the images of tablets and the maybe vials. You are doing a good job. The admin is also quick to respond to mails.

After downloading the app, I found it difficult to register. It keeps saying, "something went wrong try again later"
