The information is incredibly helpful and I rely on it daily. The only issue is that phone app is difficult to operate at times, ie when using the antibiotic spectra legend (lloooove!) it is hard to scroll, and if you want to "remove all" you always have to scroll to the bottom. The font size is also large so it requires lots of scrolling to figure out where you are at on the page. I'm sure a the purchase of the desktop app would solve those problems

Kyla, Thank you for your feedback. Our development team is hard at work with some improvements to the Spectra of Activity that we hope to release later this year. Once we let it into the wild, please use the app's "Feedback" function to let us know what you think.

Absolutely essentially for my practice. The HIV sections are a great resource for my practice, which includes a sizable number of patients living with HIV. The app. Is easy to use, full of information for all commonly encountered pathogens, always up to date, and even pleasing to the eye. A great step forward from the tiny little book I always had in my pocket.

I'm a geberal practitioner and I've been using this app for over 5 years now. It's one of my most useful tools and i find it easy to use and very complete. My only complaint with the app itself is the lack of a dark mode. My only complaint with the service is the lack of an option for by month subscriptions. The yearly subscription is not expensive if you take into account the price per month, but for physicians or students from low income countries, the one time down payment can be steep.
