APPLICATION DOES NOT WORK

Keeps kicking me out and not saving progress. Based on recent reviews developers said this was fixed, it is not. You have a great product here, but the difference of the application working or not working (which it is not working) is attributing to the bad ratings and reviews

VSim does not work well

I tried doing a maternity sim on my iPad but it would not update the orders after calling the provider, which is essential for fully completing the VSim. This app needs serious work in order to work on non laptops/computers

Would give 0

This app is the literal worst. I’ve seen the dates on the reviews and they have yet to solve the issues after saying they have been working on it.

App crashing

I have been trying to do a sim all morning. It’s crashed every time I’m close to finishing the sim.

Terrible

It’s ridiculous that we pay so much money for school and for books and this is what we have to work with. Shame on this company.

Worst app ever

I don’t know how many app reviews I have ever done in my life. However, despite having used hundreds if not thousands, this is by far the worst ever. It is required for nursing programs which are already very busy and stressful. This app simply does not work. I was unable to access the VSIM on my phone, so it says to download the app, I download this app after waiting and deciding to set-up my Apple ID on my school iPad, when I do it takes forever to download. Once I’ve gone through all of these steps, I quickly login and then it directs me to same site on my phone which somehow thinks my iPad is not a tablet and is a mobile device and still doesn’t let me access what I need. So all of this to say, this app is complete trash, and you need to login using a computer. Maybe it works better for windows based products, but it doesn’t work at all as of October 28th, 2022. This is even more disappointing to see the responses to the other reviews as recently as October 13th claiming that they are aware and have fixed these issues when they still have not. It is shameful that as nursing students and medical professionals we have to rely on such broken products. We do not need more stress and problems in our lives as we are trying our best to learn, grow, and keep other people alive. This is extremely disappointing. I would like to request a refund for my subscription to CoursePoint.

I requested a refund and was told it wasn’t possible, waiting to speak to a manager. They told me that this app cannot be accessed on any mobile or tablet device that it is ONLY available on desktop or laptop computers. So frustrating and disappointing and a waste of our time and energy. They should be clear about that then on the website and this app has no reason to exist if it doesn’t work at all and the company is aware that it doesn’t work. Why are you telling us that you are working to fix it, just tell us it doesn’t work and we won’t spend time trying to download and make it work….

Do better.

Crashes

This app is suppose to allow you a half hour for your vsim, crashes after 9 minutes.

Hi Pixiebean86, thanks for your review. I'm sorry that you had a bad experience with the app crashing. We have received very few reportings on this issue, but will look into this asap and will hopefully be able to fix the this for next release. If you could provide more information about which device you were using and if it happened consistently or just once, and which scenario, that would be a big help. Highly appreciated. Have a great day, Lasse

Worthless waste of time

This app doesn’t work, period. It will let you enter the sim, via the website only, and will randomly close down, losing all your progress, having to start completely over. Gave up after the third attempt. I could have been done and well onto my second sim by this point, if not done completely, but I have to log onto the computer and start all over again in order to finish this simulation for class.

TERRIBLE AND UNREALISTIC

this app is horrendous. don’t update it, get rid of it! huge waste of time for such a minimal portion of our grade. i dont need a giant pic that stays on my screen for 10 seconds explaining what a nasal cannula is. this is not am “emt for dummies” class. ridiculous

Hi wonexistence, thanks for your review. I'm sorry that you had a bad experience using our product, which of our modules did you use? If you would like to elaborate a bit more on your experience and what specifically didn't work for you, we would love to get your feedback. We are continuously improving the product, and there is already a newer version of the app released, where a lot of improvements have been made. Have a great day, Lasse

vSim won’t transfer as completed to your account.. don’t waste your time

I tried to give it the benefit of the doubt after reading the reviews. I completed the whole assignment and everything but the actual vSim transferred to my account. After completing the simulation the app kept responding with “please try again later” and it never uploaded. I had to redo it on my laptop. You can use this app if you don’t have access to a computer at the moment and want to start the process but know that the completed assignment will not submit.

Hi katey_p, thanks for your feedback, highly appreciated. We had a bug earlier that sometimes prevented the score from being uploaded. We have fixed this bug and made other improvements since you wrote your review. I would highly recommend to try the updated version of the app. I'm sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. Have a great day, Lasse
