It used to let me save "conditions" and "terms" as favorites. After the update, it won't. Please fix, as this is almost as good as Merck's app. Update 12/8/2024 Conditions like diabetes don't have a long explanation about causes, symptoms, treatments, prevention, home remedies and so on anymore. You used to be thorough like Mayo Clinic's website. Please remedy this.

WedMD is a highly useful and insightful app provided you take the time to get highly familiar with it. If their option was to provide with ten stars instead of five that action would have been taken
