User Reviews

Users widely praise Eastland Herb as a portable, comprehensive reference for Chinese herbal medicine with fast search, clear explanations, and clinical value. Many rely on it daily, appreciate cross‑device access, and view it as cost-effective compared with physical books. Common criticisms focus on missing annotation features (highlighting, notes, and favorites), price/value concerns, and limited reading controls (font size and copying/annotation options). Overall, it’s highly valued for study and practice but would benefit from improved interactivity.
Pros
  • Portable, comprehensive two-volume reference (Materia Medica and Formulas & Strategies) in one app, replacing heavy books.
  • Fast, powerful search and easy-to-use navigation for quick lookups.
  • Clinically useful and well-structured, with clear explanations; aligns with Bensky knowledge; great for study and practice.
  • Cross-device portability—use on iPhone and iPad, even simultaneously for reference.
  • Strong value for money; cost-effective compared with buying the physical books.
Cons
  • Lack of annotation tools (no highlighting, notes, bookmarks, or favorites) despite frequent requests.
  • High price and mixed views on value; several reviewers feel it's too expensive or not worth it.
  • Reading/interaction limitations (no font size adjustment; inability to copy text or easily annotate).

I love this app, follows Bensky knowledge. Easy to search, text is clear and well stated. If I can ask for imporvement: I wish that I can open 1-3 windows for easy comparison of formula or herbs. Also, I would love to have option of highlight the text for me important. Highly recommend!

As an accupuncture student I find this app incredibly useful. In fact- sometimes I wish I hadn’t spent so much money on the accompanying books. The app pulls things up so quickly, I’d recommend for acupuncturists and students alike.
