AAP Red Book App Reviews

So well organized, late entry into app world,but great! Pls keep it free for AAP members.

Slick, comprehensive, intuitive.

Good information but images are almost useless since you cant enlarge them. Dont bother opening them on your iPhone. Even on an iPad they are still small.

When I try to access any content, it says "File cannot be found" and lists a file with an html extension. App support via the App Store doesnt work either.

Having browsed through the app now, I really like it. Its well-organized and easy to search. Its also great that its free for AAP members. My only complaint thus far is that the links for the images show the image but cut off several of the words in the captions of the images. Hopefully they can fix that easily.

Keeps crashing requiring deletion and re-loading. Some tables listed in tables some in body of text-confusing. Cannot expand size of text rendering some tables illegible. Stick with Unbound medicine version.

Thank you for the app, but it really needs more investment to make it a good one, there is no auto complete of the word while searching , you cant navigate through the topic so easily, like there is no list of symptoms, management , etc for example. You cant enlarge the pictures . So please invest more for a better app, because redbook is the pediatrician bible.

This could be an invaluable resource to have. If the app worked properly and was intuitive to use. Most of the time searches do not work. The iPhone and iPad versions are similar but with functions that work on one but not the other. There are two versions of the Red Book app - which to get? The contents section does not even work most of the time. Then with the new Pediatric Care Online app, you ask yourself why even bother with this one. Please fix this app! A pediatric version of the easy to use Sanford Guide app would be very welcome.

Often crashes or wont open at all. Relay need a reliable red book app.

Navigation could be cleaner but the content is there so I guess I cant complain.

I waited for this app for many months, have downloaded unbound version of red book. This one has very poor navigation. Once installed it will allow me use app , with very poor navigation menu and readability. When I open it again it will not load the app content everything remains blank. There is no way to login. The only way to get back is to reinstall. I have done this multiple times. FYI I use ios 7.04 with iphone 5s 64 gb. If any developer is working for this app should be penalized and contract terminated without any extension . I recommend this being a AAP member, and looking for improving access. If looking for reasons, not to fire the developer please dont. Ps I have no financial gains or loss or relation with the developer.

Truly worthless. Not unlike many of the AAPs efforts toward mobile content. At least a decade behind other professional colleges efforts in delivering quality medical info, CE, and MOC electronically.

I am sad to call it that, but when it dose not do what it suppose to do when you need it, it is!

Good when it works. But it often doesnt work so cant be my primary resource.

The app worked alright when it was released, but with subsequent updates it has become unstable: after opening a section, the page keeps moving back up to the beginning of a section. There is no way of adding bookmarks or highlight any content. I still depend on the printed version, that I had to purchase separately, or on the Internet subscription. Not a good thing when you are an infectious disease subspecialist and need ready access to the information.

crashes frequently. search not very helpful. content dissapeared when membership lapsed. hard to get it back after renewal

Cannot load content. When it did work - search function was useless - even search for HIV had no results!

This app is terrible. I can forgive the lack of an update for the current iOS if this app actually worked. You cant even read a single sentence without the app jumping back to the top of the page. This is unacceptable.

Works the first time after downloading, then nothing. Now its like an empty book. Thanks AAP for the quality app.

As others have mentioned, I found I suddenly had no content. Deleting the App and re-downloading it fixed things.
