I hardly ever give reviews as it's just not my thing, but I had to do it for this app. It runs, so we'll, and yes, there are some minor glitches in reading of the text, but the audio is perfect! Having medical terminology explain is amazing. I have used it with all my doctors, and I have told family and friends how great this app is in reviewing your appointments and how it allows you share it with family or a friend so they too can keep abreast of your health. Well done!

I really like using this app. It gives me the ability to review my conversations with my doctor at home. My only disappointment is I tried to record a conversation with my doctor on the phone. I had it on speaker the whole time. It looks like it was recorded but no sound. Hopefully I'm just missing something.
