Pros and cons of MediBrev app for iPhone and iPad

MediBrev app good for

I found it really useful to find the meanings of many acronyms just like EDRF... Its true though that there are a lot of different answers for small acronyms like PA. This might be confusing. This app should be adjusted to include only the accepted/legal acronyms.
The update is now compatible with the larger iPhone screens. Thank you! There are always the odd abbreviations that cant be found here. But overall this app has been very helpful in a couple of situations.
As a nursing student, this app is very useful when a quick reference is needed. So far all abbreviations Ive looked up have been found. I recommend it.

Some bad moments

I would advise everyone to continue to look through your institutions accepted abbreviations/acronyms list for a complete list of whats accepted and wgat they mean. This program does have many acronyms but there are many definitions for each one which make it confusing and all of them are in french/francais which now just makes it useless and ridiculous for anyone that cant read francais.
I didnt find this useful at all. The simplest of terms, HS, BID, OID were not registered terms.
Having purchased this app :( I have found it not to include many common medical acronyms. (I am a nurse in the U.S.) Skyscape has better apps, more expensive, but then this was $10 wasted as I went on to purchase a useful app from Skyscape.
