This is the most annoying app i have ever experienced. It takes too much time to search and find items. Many doses are wrongly entered. Subscription charges are too high.

Verification method is so poor as we couldn't receive verification code. It was so easy herebefore as we could install in two to three more devices with single verification.

seems a waste of money uptill now. starts downloading data after taking all the information and then between 70 and 80 percent download, stops by saying connection inteeruption, and starts downloading again, without accepting the command. I dont know what to do.

Worst paid app. I changed my mobile and reinstalled app but i am not able to receive OTP even after trying mutiple times. And the helpline contact number is not working

Fah. C. Feb 12, 2020     

Whenever I'm in hurry and want to search some information it starts loading or updating data. That makes this app totally a waste of time and money. Even locally available free apps are more responsive and quicker than this app.

Mai. K. Feb 14, 2019     

it's a great app. I've been using it since 3 yrs now. But i recently changed my phone & when i attempted to download the app on this phone so it said this app was built for an older version & isn't working now. kindly update the app so that it works on the newer android versions

The worst app ever. First you pay too much and then you've to wait for 1-2 days to get the verification code and still I have not received the code yet. You deserve zero star.

Muh. B. B. Feb 17, 2020     

Pathetic experience. Whenever you have to use this application either it fails to recognize the user or starts updating which is a very time taking ptocess.
