ClinicalKey for Android

Forced log out every time I open the app. Never remembers the page I was at. No useful bookmark feature. Scrolling through table of consents side bar doesn’t work. So frustrating.

I have not experienced the forced logout that others have stated in their reviews and I suspect it is because I am logging in with the personal account I created after I accessed the clinical key website through my school’s library as opposed to using my school’s login credentials. My suggestion would be to try that route. As for the app itself, it functions very similar to the website. I can access the same material (including textbooks) that I could on the website. The only things I wish it had that the website had is the ability to “find on page” and change the size of the text. If I were king for a day (or, if someone from CK is reading this) I would enable web users and app users to favorite books—whole books, not just chapters or images from them. Having to constantly search for the names of textbooks gets tedious.

This is rating app usability not the content UTD app >>>>CK app If CK wants to compete with big brother UTD - stop logging me out each time I minimize -have a save login feature easily accessible -landscape mode on Android with less screen overlap bug - favorite book saving option -options on screen color and text size please - cleaner experience that is less laggy -option for DL of material would no network is needed Please do this. For a grand a year for the IM packet we should have a more functional app since it is 2021. BEST resources in probably the worst app.

Publishers like Elselvier are exactly the ones driving people to pirate and not pay. My institution pays for my access and for some dumb anti-user reason, they decide to log you out every time you close the app to satisfy some idiotic internal “security” requirement. You will have a better user experience if you download the PDF - I’m not advocating for piracy but I shouldn’t have to pay to be treated like a criminal.

Is anyone paying attention to this app anymore? I noticed the last update was a year ago. The resources in this database are incredible, and I find the information to be easily readable and well laid out. However, I keep getting booted out while using the app. And, furthermore, it is not easy to get logged back in since I have to go through the institutional login route. Please update and simply this app!! I really want to love this app and rely on it, but you’re making that difficult for me.
