Some ideas...

First of all, I just would like to say that Mental Case is an incredible app! As a first year med student, it has been tremendously beneficial & borderline essential to my doing well. I am extremely excited about the upcoming 2.0 release & all of its new features (most especially, the "learn by date" feature). Here are some ideas I have had:

  1. I have many large cases; all are >75 but some break 300. These large cases make for extremely long lessons. If there were a way to break the lessons up into smaller chunks, that would be great. (This was mentioned by another poster, as well, in "4 suggestions.)
  2. This may be a 2.0 feature but, could there a way to access quizlet.com flashcards through the mac app? Many of my classmates add flashcards to the site and better integration between the two would be nice.
  3. I'm a heavy user of the "quick snapshot" & "quick complete note" from the taskbar. I think adding crosshairs to the snapshot would improve it & also the ability to take a snapshot & add it to a complete note. (Recently, I've been using the screenshot app, "Skitch", to take a snapshot then opening a "quick complete note" and dragging the picture to it. )
  4. Often I use images as prompts for ID'ing certain structures, etc. Could you increase the size of those on the desktop & maybe add a "zoom" feature on the iphone version (maybe via double-tap or something)?

Again, thanks for making such a helpful program.

    Hi Alex,
    Think we have most of your requests covered in version 2.
    Note that double tap of an image on iPhone already does zoom it.
    Kind regards,
    Drew
