## Review summary

MDCalc is widely praised as a must-have, comprehensive medical calculator that consolidates many resources in one place and supports daily clinical decision-making, including risk stratification. It’s seen as convenient and user-friendly for many users. However, reviews repeatedly report stability and reliability problems after updates—crashes and inability to open—along with friction from mandatory login, and concerns about data persistence (lost favorites) and IOS compatibility issues. Overall sentiment favors its utility, but stability and onboarding hurdles need attention to restore smooth use.

- Comprehensive resource with many variables/tools in one place.
- Aids clinical decision-making and risk stratification.
- Favorites feature supports quick access and workflow.
- User-friendly and convenient to use.

### Cons

- Frequent stability and reliability issues: crashes and the app not opening after updates.
- Mandatory login/registration friction, with data persistence problems (e.g., lost favorites after updates).
- Compatibility issues with iOS versions/updates causing load failures.
