Latest reviews of MedCalX app for iPhone and iPad

Nothing special about this app
This app would be very good if you could keep track of all your patients exams of the past if you could add the photos I have of patients, and edit it, if you could have already a set of your preferred exams for certain conditions set out for you or that you already specially made for yourself. Im from Brazil in Recife, South America. I am an M.D.
Getting worse
Compared to older versions the developers had to remove certain formulas. Yes, nothing is mentioned in the app description. You just "discover" it, when trying to use it. Some items like "Age" cant be added to Favorites and the app always defaults to system language without an option to override it.
Doesnt work
Did not keep my doximity membership despite claiming it would. Formulas locked.
Excellent
Indispensable app for any medical resident.
Great app, but...
Imo, it would be a great feature if there was a way to add a personal formula. Also, adding a conversion tool would be very very useful as well (for example, converting LDL from mg/dL to mmol/L
