The app used to work very well, and we were happy with the simplicity. However, starting about a week ago, I can't crop the photos appropriately. Whenever I crop, it doesn't upload the cropped area I selected and instead enlarges the right upper corner. So if I'm taking a patient photo, instead of their face, I end up with the top of their head. UPDATE They fixed the issue with a recent update. Thank you!

Quick way to upload patient's documents. Specially vaccine cards. I highly recommend this app

Could not get it to work in Athena training "sandbox", BUT, worked fine in the live EMR. Pictures of documents are small and hard to read. Will likely scan documents and use the capture app for rashes, surgical sites, etc...

Have version 1.6.6 installed on a Galaxy S10, Android v.12. First, this as well as the previous version does NOT allow me to close the app after use. I must restart the phone. Second, it does not take photos in landscape mode as previous versions allowed, nor does it rotate the photos, so I have to spend time cropping each photo. Seriously, the only reason I use this app is we use Athena One. Not happy with the latest "upgrade" at all.
