One thing
Great app, but whenever I try to bookmark something the screen just goes white and it never actually bookmarks ):
Updated. Won't open. Deleted.
Why don't you test these things?
quite informative
The information given is quite useful eventhough it is just basic information. Need further research though if you want to know more details about that particular herb.
Won't open
I've just updated and now the app won't open.
Excellent
Well researched and concise app on a range of herbal medicines. Great stuff and free!
No sense at all.
This app "about herbs"?! So how come there is a Tai Chi, but no Thymus vilgaris or Salvia officinalis????
awesome but....
This app is aweseome. I love the fact it's all science-based. The only thing to improve is the search function, for example it'd be great to be able to search within entries for a drug like warfarin. Oh, and please add sage & white tea!
Brilliant app
Amazing app. Very complete. Thank you.
What a great little app!!!
Wow, what a great little app. I am doing a degree in complementary therapies in clinical practice (UK) and this information with the references will help so much. The information I think somebody said was basic but the information is there for you to tease out of the journals they have linked to this app (you need to be online to access). I don't want to admit this but I would happily pay for this app, all I would say though is the introduction to what the app is about and what you have included in it does not give this justice. People don't realise how much natural herbs can do for the body, this is where all our medicines of today started from. Thank you for this.
Great app!
Fab app for green fingered people, food foragers or those with an interest in herbal home remedies. Attractive app with good graphics, allows you to easily look up and read about the medical properties of herbs from a large selection in list form. Very easy to use, like a reference book.

This is a worthwhile fantastic App.
