I do like this app because I also went to the website on my computer. I do wish that they would bring back the old symptom checker rather than the new one cuz I do not like the new interface with it it's a lot harder to navigate than when you could just click on the body parts and then click on the subcategories and go from there

Although the symptom checker is fairly ok, the med reminders feature works about as well as the squirrel in my backyard - in that I have no backyard and no squirrels live in this part of the world! 😑

Blinded by the Light! App needs dark mode option (as in Black background)

Not at all helpful for me. I entered hypoxemia as a symptom, and it didn't even show up in the list. Also, it only allows you to choose basic body parts. You can't get too complicated when choosing, so I am giving it 1 star.

Absolutely useless app. I was told to update their allergy forecast app to this one (by the app). This app doesn't forecast 💩. I'm so p*ssed. Deleting app.

I can't enter my email. I can't choose a password. All I can do is enter my DOB and sex. This is not good. I tried twice, so I'll be replacing this terribly inadaquate app

Great app for getting an idea about medical conditions you may be experiencing. What happened to the visual selection? The one with the picture of the human? I'd much rather select a body part than type and scroll through a list of words. Might work for some people, but I prefer the visual aspect of that selection method. Please bring it back... Just as an additional option. Why take it out?

I've always used this site as a helpful & informative medical guideline. This should never be used instead of seeing your PCP or MD!! I've found it 2 be a very useful tool in many ways over the last 15+/- years; so long as I share what I've found w/my Doctor, including anything I've read or seen on the site that pertains 2 that visit. I'm thankful for WebMD, for my PCP & having the intelligence 2 STOP trying 2 diagnose myself or others....& Relax.

Just started to use it today. Hope there is a button to click to read for me. Hope I can check symptoms not only for myself but also for my friends, who don't know how to use cellphone.

If you're some boomer who likes to be 50 years behind the science, then WebMD is built for you. These hacks are still referring to the "keto flu" to scare people away from ketogenic diets. Actually, it's called carb withdrawal. But don't expect carb addicts to get that right. Also, recommending people drink sports drinks to keep up their electrolytes is absolutely hilarious. Sports drinks will kick you out of ketosis, you absolute morons! Garbage in = Garbage out.

I can't go in and add drugs. I can only delete ones that are previously on there but there's no way to add them or to see if there's interactions between the existing drugs that I take.

As a medical resource it's great, but, there's too much additional "stuff" on each of the pages. My goal is to use it like a dictionary or resource for information on specific conditions. I don't want all of the other "stuff".

This app is terrible for people who have multiple symptoms or diagnosis. It doesn't save any of your information after you put it in, and I've tried over 10 times! I have multiple symptoms, and have seen multiple doctors(for over 15yrs) I just wanted a general idea. Doesn't save any of your information, no matter how many times you put it in. If it does save any, it doesn't give you any possible results. The online version is just as bad! The website, you can't put in over 30 details!

I miss the old symptom checker interface. I mostly used this app to help figure out the vocabulary of the parts involved with my symptoms but now I don't have a place to start. I also do not like all the added features, I have separate apps for those and it's creating clutter on my device. I'd rather have an app that does one thing well than a bunch of things poorly.

The UI is not user friendly at all. For a health application, one would think they would take into account poor vision, poor coordination, shaking hands, and other conditions where having small icons and buttons are a bad decision. For example, what is up with the redesigned medication reminder? The check marks require a magnifying glass to see. Could they be any smaller? What a ludicrously stupid design choice. The check marks should remain prominent and obvious at a glance.

The only reason this is 3 stars is because although this is an essential app for someone like me, if you hit the wrong button by mistake and it takes you out of Symptom Checker, for example, you lose everything that was just there even if you'd went back in there immediately. There's no way to receive back the symptoms you had entered. That had costed one star. The second star was lost due to not being able to list all of my meds and conditions. So I cannot get a full read on many features.

The articles, drug interaction and other utilities have been improved. This is a great tool to track and learn more about your medical needs. It would be nice if articles could be opened in a browser and bookmarked. Before 8/27/19 I have used with phone, tablet, and PC versions for several years. The phone app has improved to make it easier to find subject matter. Sometimes the linked content does not format well. Overall a good product.

I add my symptoms, past medical conditions, and medications, but when i get to possible conditions, the screen is blank. I've tried it at home, sitting in a Dr's office and just sitting around in town. Nothing changes the results, I just have a blank screen. I used to love this app during the rare instances I used it. With the "new" symptom checker being useless, the app is a waste of space and has been deleted.
