Comments on Medscape for Android

★★★★☆ Dr Ilyas Ahmad · Jan 15, 2026
The database has quite improved and the AI feature is fantastic. There is AI everywhere, but tye medical profession is very delicate matter and one can't trust just any AI for response, Meds cape inbuilt AI provides authentic, to the point response along with references. The only problem is when I ask some long questions (clinical scenarios from my exam) , the app occasionally crashes. The iOS version on my iPad doesn't have this problem and the android version has. Kindly fix it.
★★★★☆ Janis Hllede · Jul 25, 2026
Good information, reliable sources and generally great app. I have two problems though, the first one is that the work postal info shouldn't really be forceful, I have no work or actual correlation to medicine, but I love medicine and want to study it further. The second problem is that there seems to be no setting to change the app's language. This trouble is really annoying since I am from a spanish-speaking country, and I actually can understand english but I would prefer reading it in spanish.
★☆☆☆☆ M. S. · Dec 27, 2025
Earlier I would have rated this app 5 🌟, but after the recent update features that I use constantly are gone. As a physician and surgeon, medication and suppliers change frequently. I always used the Pill Identifier to verify medication. Now, I can't. One of the best and easiest features of the app is gone. No other app offers this feature. Now I'm livid, and I'm going to uninstall. It's not that I don't use Meds cape for its other resources, it's just that they took my favorite feature away!
★☆☆☆☆ RAKESH SRIVASTAVA · Dec 23, 2025
Very poor. For last few months does not open or crashes multiple times on Android Galaxy S25 Ultra. Kind of fed up. Hope someone does something to improve. Used to be a great medical app.
★★☆☆☆ Dr Abhay Rohatgi · Nov 23, 2025
The app is good and brings about latest information. But now I am faced with a big problem. In its CME section, if I click on any topic (new or old), it doesn't allow me to enter the activity, saying that service (is) unavailable. This problem is not getting resolved.
★★☆☆☆ fefo ahmad · Mar 11, 2026
It doesn't open, I tried updating, but it didn't solve the problem
