Pros and cons of Medicinal Herbs Encyclopedia app for iPhone and iPad
Medicinal Herbs Encyclopedia app good for
I love herbs and I think your app is superb - so many plants are already in the catalog and the texts are very nice and full of detail.
There are a few things that need to be improved, in my opinion. 1. Add full text search 2. index of herbal properties (e.g. anti-fungal, emollient) would also be nice, as a separate button next to "all", "bookmarks" and "search". Also - the order of the bookmarks cannot be changed right now.
Lastly, it would be perfect if you could add references to the articles - for the most interested of your users.
I like this app - it is simple to use and friendly. It has a large database. From the herbs that I use and work with I found the data to be accurate.
My SUGGESTION is that you have an OPTION TO ADD YOUR OWN HERBS that are not yet listed. There are many things I use that are not in the data base. Thank you. Over all a good application. worth 0.99
So good to have all my herb info all in one place. Thank you for providing this app.
Easy to find lookup. Gives history and discovery. Plant descriptions are great
Some bad moments
Its an hard work, but upgrade the search engine with patology and properties search function...without this, the app is not complete
I paid only .99 for this app and couldnt be happier. Ive paid more for apps with less than half the info contained in this app. Good job!
While there is a lot of information, the lack of a good search decreases the usability of this app.
The search function only searches the names of the herbs - none of the content. It will not give you a list of herbs that could be used for a specific problem. It would be nice to have all of the text searchable.
It would also be nice to have the photos at the top, and to be able to enlarge them.
Another feature that would be nice would be to have information on growing the herb, and on making salves, tinctures, etc.
I cant believe there is an add on here and you have to pay for the app!! First thing you see is an add and if you dont hit the small tab to enter the app you keep getting forwarded to the add. I dont want to know about converse shoes app!!!!!
Other than that it is pretty simple info with good pics but I can get more info online. If I run our of storage this is the first app that goes. Unless the remove the advertisement.
Content is okay. When you start up the app, it always prompts you to consider downloading another app they are trying to sell. If they took that off of the start up, I would give it a higher score.
It has every herb out there I do believe and am improving in health by the Grace of God. Praise The Lord!
