Pros and cons of Medical Dictionary and Terminology (AKA MedWords) app for iPhone and iPad

Medical Dictionary and Terminology (AKA MedWords) app good for

I bought it because Im studying in medical and each time, it surprises me about the facility of use and goods definitions. The perfect app of medical terminology course.
I just downloaded this app for back to school as a refresher tool. Its handy to have the proper medical terminology at your finer tips.
Decent to good app. If it doesnt recognize a word you are given the option for the app to search online.

Some bad moments

Every word I bring up is not there and directs me to the Internet. Whats the purpose of paying for an app if the info isnt there?
Very good informative and easy to use only miss the font size stick to one and u can not make it bigger , full screen make it easier to read hope to update soon thnks .
I dont think its worth downloading. They dont give enough information and some things like bulging disk are not in there at all.
For the everyday purpose of looking up something medical its good. Having major surgery ....... Probably not.
The medical encyclopedia did not download, but I got charged for it. Now what?
I am getting multiple medical certifications right now and I am constantly studying and coming across new medical terms. This app is great with having the term definition or getting it for you off the internet. Very helpful. Just a little slow when erasing a past search to search a new word or term.
