Customer Reviews
The early reviews seem bogus
This app is too limited. Not enough photos. Weird and uncommon rash choices. I am a doctor and don't see this app being very useful to me.
What a disappointment
Extremely limited. Too basic, even for the novice in dermatology. Descriptors of conditions is barely medically oriented. No treatment options. Geared towards lay persons.
Way too basic
I am an actual doctor, and find this app underwhelming and not worth the 2.99 price. Very basic description with no other info such as differential ddx, or even treatment options. Pictures look good on the retina display, but it is extremely limited in subject material. I could only see this app benefitting the new 3rd year medical student but they would quickly 'outgrow' it.
