iSearch Biomed App Reviews

Organizes studies by impact factor..I am a surgeon and often miss studies published in high impact journals that surgeons are not used to referring often. Now, I have all the latest data, literally at my fingertips. Great for research collaboration. The saved files menu does not work well in Dark Mode, this needs to be fixed. Otherwise, love the app.

I cannot overemphasize how often we use Pubmed in our lab and how much this app has changed the way we work. Saves time. Great for team collaboration. Great value for price. Congratulations!

So this app is really cool in that it sorts by levels of graded evidence, impact factor, relevance — all of the quality studies. However, the search screen is misleading and a bit of a false advertisement. Under the cloak of searching PubMed (and it appears to actually BE PubMed), you get one search but then must subscribe. $50/per year. So the real value is the sorting features but it also delivers full text when ALREaDY FREE in PubMed Central.

We use Pubmed to write our manucripts and this app has been very useful to help us pull out relevant data. App is very responsive!
