SafeDosePro

I paid a full version for $20 when apps were at $0.99. I never asked for updates. I was ok using the prior version and all of a sudden they changed it to exorbitant subscription prices

Most of my work is in the outpatient clinic and the newborn nursery, but I do occasionally get called to pediatric emergencies. I bought this app years ago and was very happy to have it on my phone and accessible. I did, in fact, use it several times in the emergency room. I received no notice whatsoever that my access to this app would no longer be valid. I’m fortunate to have discovered this in a non-emergency setting, but seriously – this was an extraordinarily dangerous thing to do.

I’ve used this app for years. Absolutely loved it and used it daily. It was the best pediatric app for medication dosing I’ve ever seen. For some reason the developer thought an update was needed to a perfectly working and excellent app. I’ve now used this updated version for a few shifts on my job and find it to be cumbersome and now slow. It used to be instant results, but now there’s a delay. There are more features that I personally don’t need and never will use. I doubt the average practitioner would ever use them either no matter what area of peds they work in. The average clinician just needs the dose for the drug. The rest is extraneous material that no one has the time get in to with the fast pace environments that we all work in. All Another huge disappointment was the new subscription fees that are very costly, a huge increase to what it was prior. I used to personally promote this app to all the new practitioners I mentor, but now I do so with reservations because of the cost. Unfortunately, I will be ending my subscription at the end of next month.
