Minor bug fixes.
Ratings and Reviews
Sad Downgrade
The previous manual of acupuncture not only looked more sleek and professional, but it loaded pages instantly. Every single page on this app now needs several seconds to load—even if you have it open and switch back from a different app. Perhaps it’s all the forced scrolling due to significantly increasing the font size. I’m glad they fixed the typos present in the other app, but I am still seeing plenty of errors and inconsistencies with capitalization, formatting, and more. User experience is no longer good. This new built from scratch app is an unnecessary downgrade in every way.
Developer Response ,
We're very sorry you feel that way, but thank you for your feedback. There is a short delay when returning to the main menu to allow for syncing with the website (a big upgrade from the old version), but we did all we could to minimise this and it certainly shouldn't take several seconds. In our testing, it takes around a second (it may take a bit longer if any updates have been made to the material). As long as you download the media for offline use (see link below) there shouldn't be any delay going from page to page.

As for errors and inconsistencies, another upgrade is that we now have an admin system that allows us to make edits that will take effect immediately, so please email us with anything you notice and we will happily take care of it (support@amanualofacupuncture.com).
The font size will respond to your system settings so you can consider reducing it if you're finding it too large.
