Ratings and Reviews
Handy App
This is a great boon to me as I am going overseas to volunteer in a health clinic and am glad to have reference material that fits in my pocket. It is so difficult to lug around a huge materia medica. However, it would be even more handy if there were a way to add herbs and formulas to the application. Everyone has some formulas and herbs that are not commonly used but handy to have for quick reference. Especially when away from one's library. It would make this app 5 stars for me.
Bencao disappeared off of my wife's new iPhone 7
My wife and I both have Bencao on our iPhone's for many years and we use it all of the time. We both just got iphone 7 and we restored them from our last backup of our 6S. My Bencao was on my new phone but it was not on my wife's iPhone. She went to the App Store and it was only for purchase but she already purchased it years ago. Can you please advise how to restore Bencao on her iPhone.
Developer Response ,
Glad you find Bencao useful for all these years.

Needs iPad compatibility
When I bought this app I didn’t realize that it only works in the vertical screen orientation for iPad. This is extremely inconvenient, as a CCM student who uses my iPad as a small computer in the horizontal orientation. I was sincerely hoping to be able to use this app every day and type all my own notes in at the bottom. Please fix this, and then I will rate 5 stars.
