1. 4/5Overall great, but lacking simple features

   UpToDate is an excellent resource for healthcare providers to access current information relevant to clinical practice. The app allows for easy mobile access to UpToDate’s exceptional content from well regarded authors. In order to the improve the mobile experience it would very beneficial to have features to allow users to highlight text and add notations for future reference. UpToDate please add highlighting capabilities!

2. 1/5Not connecting to server problem

   I’ve been using this app especially for its offline content for years with my (expensive) personal subscription. Recently any action generates numerous error popups indicating a connection or network problem. I deleted the app and reinstalled the latest version from the App Store but now even trying to login generates a connection or server error. Fortunately I am able to access the UTD web site, but there have been several circumstances where I have been in areas without WiFi or cell service under emergency conditions and unable to access the offline content due to need to update the offline content. Certainly if one cannot login or access information, especially under urgent medical situations, the app is not useful so I can’t justify more than one star if the app doesn’t work. My advice to many others out there who also have this problem is don’t buy individual subscriptions and just use institutional accounts when connected to a work machine and look to other reliable apps that offer offline content when in need of urgent medical information ( and there are many). Our practice and affiliated hospitals no longer use UTD because of unreliable access issues. The quality of medical care in the USA has deteriorated due to problems with technology and this is another example of a chronic technology problem afflicting many that UTD does not appear capable of repairing. Stay away from this app!

3. 2/5Amazing but broken with recent update

   Amazing app with high quality reliable medical knowledge at your fingertips, but unfortunately what was a nearly perfect app was broken with the most recent update. The skip to section of the table of contents of articles works properly as it always has, but the drug information pages no longer skip to the right section, it is always wrong and several sections down resulting in having to scroll through huge amounts of information to get to section needed. I ended up using pediatric renal dosing of a medication instead of adult renal dosing because it jumped to the wrong section and the table didn’t have a title to identify that it was for pediatric instead of adults. Please fix this immediately! It makes looking up drugs on the app useless and have to rely on desktop for web browser version

4. 2/5What did you do recently?

   I have had the app on my iPhone for several years and I get a notification every 90 days to reauthenticate thru my institution which I do. This last notification I took care of, but the notification won’t go off of the app so it’s constantly looking like I have a message or something I need to read or take care of. I’ve clicked on everything I can think of within the app, I’ve logged out and back in, and I’ve deleted the app and downloaded it again, and the notification number is still on the app icon. I also tried to turn off notifications in my phone settings and it won’t show this app to me to do that. It only did this within the past 2-3 weeks so I’m guessing it’s an update issue. Please fix!

5. 1/5Dump the ai--you've become indistinguishable from Google or open evidence

   I've used UpToDate since I was a medical resident at Duke in 1994. The new "ai" feature is absolutely atrocious compared to "ai native" platforms and hinders access to the UTD content that I've used all these years. I'm a doctor, I know the simple things to do, I don't need your engine giving me "hints." If I want to do a google search, I can do that instead, but I look to utd for very specific info that has always been embedded in topics (plus easy to find refs so I can double check content). Please create a way to delete or disabled the ai feature or I'll cancel my subscription.
