  • validation

    I could not validate my ID and it keeps showing a server error
  • issue with subscription

    I have payed for my update subscription now twice with the app still showing that my subscription has expired and it’s not working.
    I have contacted via the developer email and still has not gotten a reply about my issue, I am not able to securely upload my cases using this great convenient app and it’s for a service I have paid for

  • Very Handy

    Very nice app.
    The only criticism is the format for entering the patients date of birth. This is the standard Apple roll-down bars. For older patients this can take a while to do. On the full website version there is an option for ‘age’ rather than DOB, and this would be a welcome addition to the App.

  • Doesn't upload anything

    Handy app but only as much as Apple 'notes' would be. The barcode scanner is a positive but unfortunately an app crash caused me to lose a lot of data I'd collected as a student. I didn't realise the app hadn't uploaded my data to my actual logbook when it seemed it had. Nowadays when I try to upload anything, it just bugs out. A shame because it could be so useful!

    Please could you get in touch via the support email address - I'd like to know more about the issue you experienced
  • Refuses to upload or connect

    This was one of the most useful professional apps on my phone for the last 5 years of surgical training. It has not functioned properly for some time now - it no longer uploads to the elogbook (which FYI states that the app is from a third party and offers no support for problems with it).
    It states that password might be wrong in settings but then will not allow that to be changed within the app; leading to an endless circle of attempts.

    I would have recommended previously, not any more, especially as the fee has doubled to £10 a year over that time.

  • Useful but could be improved!

    Could be quicker and have less steps involved in data input. There should be options for input of dates and DOB (scroll wheel vs manual typing). There should be a choice of date style (UK vs US). Also, it would be useful to have an option when editing an entry to duplicate that entry and then edit it (useful when you forget to add another operation for the same patient) to save you from entering that patient's demographic data again.

  • Support!

    I have recently renewed my subscription and I am not able to upload or even just save a case! And there is currently no app support! What's going on!?
  • Doesn't work anymore

    This used to be a very good app but since iOS 6 came out it's been transformed into a non-functioning, dangerous & time wasting app. Without any warning, it no longer saves unit numbers. As a result I had lost a full month of operating. Not knowing there was a problem, I never kept any of the op sheets so had to spend a whole day trying to recapture the data. The developers say they've identified the problem, but this statement has been out for more than a month. Seeing you pay an annual subscription, and the fact it's been out of action for more than a month and a bit, I would like the developers to release a patch ASAP and a full years subscription for free (or payback a proportion of the annual fee).
    An app like this must be totally reliable all the time, not half the time - otherwise I'm better off with my printed op sheets.

  • Awesome thank you!

    As a final year trainee usually having to have a rush to get the logbook updated prior to the ARCP/RITA this is an amazing app! Update in theatre and the search function is what is missing on the website and makes it so much easier!
    I would echo the other comments about the people complaining about the price, these are the new style trainees who no doubt winge about not being trained whilst not actually putting the effort in themselves.
    Cheers mate awesome app and great effort!

  • Worth it...

    Worth the 4.99 fee (it's less than the average Costa coffee round bought by most surgical trainees on a weekly basis...), and given that it's been developed by a surgical trainee it seems fair to pay up...
    I've never been great at updating my logbook, as it used to mean logging into the desktop site. This app is quick and easy to use so can update logbook as you're going along.
