Microbiology Pronunciations App Reviews

This a very nice apps but missing so many microbes. If you want just send me e mail and I can provide you with all the important medical microbes that will be helpful for every body. Rating 2/5

Great app if your taking a microbio class (and especially if you skip class like I do...) I dont know how to pronounce half of the microbes I learned, and for the ones I do know, I dont know that I say it right... Good to have this to check for myself so Im not embarass If you have the Drug Pronunciations app, its the same but with microbes instead of drugs. The app isnt perfect but it does exactly what it says it will do - pronounce microbes. No uncessasary extras. Add viruses!

Fantastic app! If youre just curious about the bugs that make us sick, want to impress ur friends with some whacked out vocab, or in the health care field, (be it support staff, lab tech, drug rep, or direct pt. care) this is a must have!

The pronunciations are easy to understand and there seems to be a very large selection of words. Two suggestions I have for change are: 1. Change the icon. Its too complicated and busy. Very un-Apple-like. 2. Change the formatting for the word submission page. It is very difficult the read the word you want to submit for inclusion in a future update. I also noticed that you cant replay a pronunciation. You have to go back to the list and then re-click on the word to hear the pronunciation again.

Finally, an App I can use that is work related! The pronounications are very clear and easy to understand. Would love to be able to press the play button as often as I want without having to go back and chose the word again. Ive already sent in some names of organisms, would like to that screen be cleared up, because I had a hard time seeing the submission box. I would highly recommend this app to anyone in Microbiology.

I am a physician and find this application informative, useful and a great learning tool. Its also fun to use!

One thing that has to be fixed is inability to read extra long names (because they are incomplete and simply end with an ellipsis). For example, have a look at "Actinobacillus". Well, as I have already mentioned in Drug Pronunciations.app, please, consider audio replay, alphabet column on the side and right-on-touching-names audio playback. Agreed with the aforementioned suggestion: make them icons prettier (for both apps)! PS: I always re-rate. ;-)

What gets another med student off? Correcting pronounciation of medical terms. Theres lots of ways to screw up pronouciation, but with this product, you wont embarass yourself in front of your peers, your PBL facillitators, or your attendings.

Great app., but problem with down loading. had problem with iphone, so sync phone and lost app off phone.

On this page it says something to the effect that this app has to be used by people over 17 yrs of age due to objectionable material? Duh? This is a microbiology app...not playboy! Someone needs to fix this!

.... some of the terms are too long for the formatting. Not useful to use "...." instead of the whole word or term. If this gets fixed, it will get 5 stars.

The sound doesnt work and the new updates with ads are a bother

Works great all around, just wish it was for the iPad rather then the iPhone.

Been waiting for this update. Glad that the developers listened to suggestions! 

Save your money this is garbage

I purchased and can not hear a thing when tapping on the play icon! Is this the app not working? Yes my volume is up... Is there a setting or update?

This app is horrible!!! It says it speaks the terms for you, but it doesnt. Dont waste your money like I did.

I think people just like to complain! Downloaded app and works perfect right out of the gate! This is a great app for me being a first year medical student.

Yeah works fine for me! iPhone 4 I suggested some new words. Hope you guys get them in soon. Good app.

The audio does not work as noted by other reviewers. I alerted the app developers and will update my review if this is repaired.
