Unknown Features
Unfortunately, the web site does not include any information regarding the ProfileMD content or software. It simply states that medical history for individuals and families may be stored. Without information on features or the interface, it is impossible to evaluate the intuitiveness or quality of the application.

Though there is no link to it from the site, a Google search yielded slightly more information. Six files are included and all are required to be added to the PDA. It appears that there have been no changes to the content of the application for several years and that medications, diseases, allergies, insurance, surgeries, family history, prevention, weight, lab tests, glucose, and blood pressure are the general areas provided. Compared to newer apps, designed for Android or iOS, this seems obsolete and limited. Users must enter all information without any dropdown menus and also must create their own graphs for monitoring data.
