Practical but not needs modifiction
Used the app for the first time tonight in a real code. Had I not already customized the events and meds to encompass everything we normally do and give during a code it wouldn’t have been as effective as it was. The Timers were helpful. I wish it would allow you to edit entries during (ie clicked the wrong action or med). Otherwise you would have to remember which entry was wrong and delete it from the log after everything was done. All in all a useful tool if you prepare it before hand.

No reminders
There are no reminders in as app when you were performing ACLS
An app that reminds you every two minutes to stop CPR and check pulse is HUGE and this app doesn’t do that. Documentation aspect of it is great!

Metronome Still Doesn’t Work
The concept of the app seems really great but it doesn’t seem that difficult to fix the metronome. Can we please get an update?
Great app
Needs bug fixes. Sometimes when adding events or drugs you can’t scroll through the list and you won’t always see what you have added.
Metronome
It would be awesome if the metronome worked.....I have an iPhone 7 and I think this app needs someone to look at it more frequently than 3yrs (3yrs since it’s last update)
Not a home run but darn good
For a free app this is great. Keeps track of multiple timers including CPR, last shock, last epi etc. The log is invaluable if you are a small team. My only wish is that the metronome defaulted to 110 instead of 100. I can easily live with any other quirks.
Use to work
Doesn't work anymore. Needs update
Good as is
I noticed that some comments have good intent, but I think this app works fine as is. I use a timer app that can be set to repeat an alarm for as long as I want, and I use a separate metronome, since I am tone deaf, this way I can hear it. The main use for timing in this app is awesome. However, unless you are not the one getting your hands "dirty" then the app is fine. If you are the one working the code, then you might not want to touch your phone, and there is not an app for that. But a clear plastic bag would work I guess. Of course I am talking about on scene, not in hospital. Still I highly recommend this app as it is.

Good idea, can be improved
The AHA recommends this for BLS instructors to use. In that context, it'd be great to have a log of elapsed time for each entry. For example, that last round of CPR took 16 seconds, they paused CPR for 8 seconds, etc. It'd also be great if it would calculate chest compression fraction (CCF). For the log to be really useful, I'd need to download the data and make a bunch of calculations. Real-time feedback would be much better not only for training but also during a real call.

Possible changes and issues
App is a great idea but here are my issues and ideas: Metronome does not work with the current version of iPhone IOS (9.3.2). Needs to alarm when 2 minutes of CPR is complete and again when CPR has been "paused" for greater than 10 seconds. Maybe make drug time editable to local protocols and alert able.
