App doesn't expire for 2 years after purchase. If you received a message telling you to repurchase, uninstall then reinstall. Should take care of that problem.

I originally started with the free app and purchased the upgrade. I am very tech savvy yet, I am still having problems getting the app to open even after uninstalling and re-installing the app twice. I'm starting to think after all the hoops I have to jump to sign back in and re-installing this app, maybe lexicomp will be worth the money for less hassle.

Loved this app when I first purchased it for nursing school and clinicals. Now I can not get into it because a message keeps popping saying I need to purchase an annual subscription. THIS SUCKS! I refuse to pay again especially with all the reviews saying people have repurchased and still can't get in! I'll just find another app that's reliable.

I have tried for weeks to get this app to work. I have gotten numerous refunds and tried to repurchase the app and still can't get in it. Called customer service and they still have not returned my call going on 4 days. Lost money on this one.

After using this app for a year I renewed my subscription only to have it no longer work. Several calls with googlr and Truen has lead to refunds and an explanation of "there must just be something with your phone". Not my model phone mind you, just my specific phone.

Not sure when this started but entries are very squished together making it hard to hit the right one. Also it would be nice if there was a zoom function as text can be small.

If you can not afford lexicomp, this is an awesome app for medical proffesionals, or those who just really want to learn about medications they are taking.

This application is very easy to use and incredibly accurate. A pharmacist must have for quick reference on drug indications, interactions, pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, and drug toxicology information.

Good content and faster than the previous dreadful version, however the interface still needs major work. In it's present form it's extremely unintuitive and requires too many taps to perform simple functions. Please learn from Epocrates. Update 7.31.2015. I'm appalled that this app still hasn't been redesigned to a more useful form. This paid app is much less intuitive to use than free alternatives like Epocrates and medscape. The developers have recalcitrantly failed to design a useful app. Perhaps they should be reassigned and replaced with people with an ounce of competence and just basic common sense.

Suddenly I can't sign in. Am prompted for username/password. Told I'm wrong. For fun, I say I forgot password. Am told e-mail address doesn't exist. For more fun, go to create new account. Am told email address already exists. I paid for this app. Why can't I use it?

What is going on? Doesn't accept my password. Says my email doesn't exist. But when I register new, says both are already in use on an existing account!!! Try 'forgot password' and that doesn't work. I PAID FOR THIS. MAKE IT WORK!

When prompted to create an account, the app does not allow you to do so. Finish the app before you publish it! Why can't I just use my Google info anyway? My other apps have that option; why should I have separate login info for each app? Not worth the money!

Was great app, but now it says I need to purchase subscription. However when I hit "continue" it gives me an error message and tells me to try clearing cookies. Did that. And still cannot get any where. Been dealing with this for months. Not fixed. Finding new app. I do not recommend this app.
