Extensive information ALL on your iPhone/iTouch

My earlier review (below)was before the 1.1 update. This update is fantastic! The ability to easily jump to subsections within the articles was a much needed tool and really makes this a first rate app. I hope you update your screen shots to show this new feature. Also, the highlighting of search terms within articles makes it so much easier to find the information you want. Thank you so much for this well laid out and information packed app. Its a great value!

I am an RN and find this to be a very user friendly interface with in-depth coverage of a variety of topics. It is well laid out and easy to search, offering you many ways to access and utilize the information. Its true there are no outline hyperlinks to sections within topics but they are planning on adding that and have told me "we do intend to make any updates we distribute free of charge." But even without that feature, it is still not difficult to find what you are looking for thanks to subject headers and good layout. There are also links within topics to other related topics and charts. Outline links will improve it, but it certainly is very functional and not difficult to navigate the way it is. Dont let that hold you back - especially since upgrades will be free.

Unlike some competitors, this version of the Merck Manual completely resides on your iPhone/iTouch and requires no Internet access. To me this is a huge consideration. It means I can access the information anywhere, anytime. I also like the ability to email a link to a page, which allows you to email colleagues (or patients)the information on Mercks website.

Great value and great app. Thanks!
