Could find info on oregano pills oil or or other herbs It s not a comprehensive database     Limited Database Rhoyalty1922

This app is easy to use I really like that it has a professional and lay views Streamlined helpful and concise I only wish it had more on essential oils Still this is a really great resource for evidence based information on alternative options where the research is few and far between                     Great resource for info on alternative options Bech3

Great app but is crashing on startup iOS 10 2     Great but crashes Rodrigobu

Sweet mint is a common herb and no info Not impressed so far Will continue to browse             Just opened first search no results Rainlily1979

Provides Research based Studies to Help Guide decision making for BOTH professionals and consumers Thank you SK                     Invaluable Resource MerricMLH

I d like for you guys to extend the search function Instead of only being able to search by name why not have it to where you can search by use too Simply have a premade list of uses and when someone clicks on a use it ll show the herbs that are used that way Other then that it s good                 It s good but Lord_Macdog

I am a healthcare professional who absolutely refers to this app as an initial reference every time a decision has to be reached                     Super RoadWarrior2004

I used to LOVE this app It worked flawlessly Updates were always good Info checked out so it was reliably useful on the go Now I can t even open it It was opening for a while but would freeze and I couldn t use it Then came another update and now it immediately crashes It isn t my phone this is the ONLY app I have any issues with Users beware right now PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP so I can use it again VERY disappointed in the function after weeks of this nonsense     WTHeck happened to this app MsKaitO

This app have many plants listed but does not list many common herbs like Bee Balm Dill Society Garlic Turke s cap Fennel and many others         Missing many Herbs Richard Wendrock

Is an excellent app Has excellent information I would download it again I use it frequently both of my professional and personal life                 Very useful Too few nicknames left

I use this periodically at work and home and appreciate the detailed information My only gripe is the very small text size it looks like 7 or 8 point font You can pinch and zoom but then you have to move the screen around to read After I updated iOS this app would crash and close as soon as I opened it I deleted it then reinstalled it and now the app works fine Developer please make either a medium and large font that justify to the screen width or else a font size slider adjustment like in the iphone text size options screen                 Handy app needs font size options LibertyT2G

Update I uninstalled the app like someone recommended and reinstalled and now the app works again No more crashes on opening the app Its now back to 5 stars This is a fantastic app with so much information                     Latest update crashes InkyMyCat

This app was great until this last update now it won t open at all crashes every time I try to open             Update is crap Momcat1369

Needs to be reinstalled after last upgrade Needs more herbs                     Excellent information devth

Still the same great app Had to uninstall first then download again to upgrade After that has been working great There are new herbs and updated information                 Uninstall first when upgrading MobiliT

This is what I consider the medical reference for herbal medicine It uses medical and clinical studies in the summary and also advises about contradictions and adverse reactions It has been a fantastic tool for using herbs medicinally                     Comprehensive and medically accurate Ceremuga

After update the ap crashes at opening Now totally useless     About Plants MultiArts

Very informative used all the time Updated to latest version now it crashes on startup Pls Fix         Loved it until latest upgrade Reuso

Love this app but it now crashes instantly on startup after latest update                     Keeps crashing after update Dester Wallaboo

This app was a good app for getting basic information on herbs Just upgraded and now it crashes when I attempt to load it Using an iPhone 5s with iOS 8 4 1     Crashes upon opening Jar el

This is a very good app for searching just about every herb you can think of I really like that it gives very informative information on the herbs their use what studies have have not been done and what they can be potentially be used for Really like this app and good job to the developers keep up the good work One comment though if one could possibly search by problem or issue to find what s recommended rather than going through each one to see what can be used for what issue other than that great job I still give it 5 stars because I love all the information it gives and it s a very clean and organized app                     Very informative and great information Redhtg

I found this app very informative and abundant in information regarding many different herbs There is a slight glitch in navigating from herbs back to the main menu Overall great app                 Very informative app Slight glitch WestsideGemini

Too many disclaimers According to this app most herbs are deadly and should not be used for any health issues Do your own research to find that most herbs are safer than pharmaceutical drugs Don t download this app         Not for Herbalists K48372j626b

For such a site the graphic presentation of the entries should be more carefully executed Perhaps it would be a more cumbersome app to manage but it should be an essential part of the information             Graphic presentation is shoddy Agidak

Please make this available for landscape mode I really like it but will probably delete it because it will not work in landscape mode                 Crzydoc is right Muchtolearn

Extremely useful                     Everything I could ever need Pslam 34

I am very happy I came across this app I ve shared it with my classmates Its a simple quick tool I can reference to                 A blend of general and specific Jivasol

Frustrating     Once I hit Agree it shuts off HeatherDavis

Fantastic app Mentions herbal benefits contraindications warnings and notes Definitely better than other aggregate references                     Best herbal reference CaliPrepper

This is a great app and very informative especially for the physician but there is one problem make it available in landscape mode for my iPad If you can work on that I would be truly greatful and also give you the fifth star                 Great app crzydoc

The people who produced this app are clearly against natural medicine If you believe in natural treatment don t even bother downloading it I did not even want to give it one single star     Bad app Piano student

I would like to be able to search by symptom such as nausea and have a list of suggested herbs Otherwise very informational if you feel like browsing around or know a specific herb you d like to research                 Lots of info but needs improved search Playalust

Great info and nice variety Would love if there was also vitamins and minerals but even w o i know i will be using often                     Very useful CLSx2

It provides great info on herbs and the like but no context You can t reference herbs by use and action The only way you can look them up is by name     Little help kcwookie

I ve been looking for an app like this for a long time I work at a supplement store and although I ve memorized an impressive amount of information its impossible to thoroughly remember everything This will be perfect to use as a reference on those few that I can t remember You even included a lot of information about the studies done which is such an important aspect                     Thank you thank you thank you popss

Only tells what herbs do does not give dosage recommendations how to prepare or administer         Just enough to get you into trouble more options needed

Don t be misled by the negative reviewer This app comes from one of the most respected cancer treatment research facilities in the world with an active Integrative Medicine Service It is NOT written by a pharmaceutical company as a previous reviewer misleadingly stated ALL of the information is scientifically evidence based It is an excellent resource for those with cancer seeking complementary therapies to minimize the side effects of chemotherapy or manage pain And it s written for the consumer as well as professionals And it s free                     Excellent Reference SophiaS

Good for looking up stuff but hardly encyclopedic There are many plants and herbs missing that hopefully will be added in future releases             Good Dictionary SavvyCatJones

I love this app 3                     NoomMilk Noom milk

It is a nice app to have on your device and comes handy occasionally                     Nice app Jp319

Great app Tons of useful info on herbs Now I can read about all kinds of herbs on the train                     Awesome app Kyu H

Really useful app                     Useful and thorough work demetri248

Informative and well done app                     Well done Sam Stern
