## What is arrhythmia?

Practice reading EKGs in lead II

Basic EKG interpretation is more accurately described as an intermediate level skill that takes time, practice and refreshing. Whether you are a doctor, nurse, EMT or tech your ability to read and pickup on basic EKG changes in real time is essential. Practice with an app that actually looks like what you see at work.

Use the app’s ‘Study Mode’ to choose one or multiple rhythms to view and compare. A brief description of each rhythm is provided, you can also pause and restart rhythms. Delete and add specific rhythms as desired. Rates, amplitudes and widths of the rhythms are dynamically set which provides for a more realistic simulation and variation within each type of rhythm. 

Use the app’s ‘Game Mode’  to challenge yourself to identify rhythms presented randomly in lead II. If desired, you can also custom specify which rhythms to include in the game.

Access to Study Mode and Game Mode requires a subscription via in-app purchase.

Please Read: The purpose of this app is not to teach basic EKG interpretation but rather to practice basic EKG interpretation. If you don’t know basic EKG interpretation seek out additional resources such as classes, books, online materials and mentors to learn more and further your understanding.

Note: The cardiac rhythms presented by the app are simulated approximations. There is NO guarantee to the accuracy of rhythms presented. While accuracy is not guaranteed it is a goal. Please report errors, suggestions or general feedback to: feedback@arrhythmiaApp.com.

### 3/5 — Mostly good missing some rhythms

*2026-06-10, version 3.5*

This app is good it covers a lot of basic rhythms but I noticed torsades, WPW, STEMI, etc is not in the rhythm library which some are common, some are not. More of those rhythms would greatly improve this app hopefully the developers read this. Because it’s missing some other common rhythms it only get a 3/5.

### 2/5 — Random dude

*2026-02-15, version 3.5*

Rythms were a little unrealistic to how the appear in an ecg and there werent several of the harder/important rythms
Would have been nice if there was an option to read it as a 12 lead instead of a single rythm line

### 1/5 — Stopped Working

*2025-11-02, version 3.5*

IOS 26 update and app no longer works. Was a great app to it stop working

### 5/5 — Honestly, great study tool for getting comfortable w/ reading EKGs

*2025-05-30, version 3.3*

Accurate Interventions are listed to be expected.
Game makes the whole process easy, just read the ones you get wrong(not every time tho). 
Game will make variations of rhythms.

### 2/5 — Cant try before signing up

*2025-05-30, version 3.3*

Would really have loved to have tried this. It looks great, looks interactive and colourful.  
However I downloaded to try it before signing up and paying. 
Unable to comment on anything else. 4, 12lead? Posterior?, blocks? Rhythms,Variety? Who knows. I’m deleting it now. I prefer to give my money to honest type creators  where I atlas know what I’m paying for rather than signing up for a trial to then have to risk than trying to cancel if it’s not what I’m looking for.

### 5/5 — Great learning app

*2025-04-02, version 3.2*

Really helped me understand EKGs as they happen. Loved the game mode! I could pick it up and quiz myself anytime.

### 1/5 — Not free

*2025-03-23, version 3.2*

Not free

### 1/5 — Why?

*2024-06-11, version 2.0.1*

I like the appearance change but the horizontal scrolling to select the rhythm is clunky and slow and makes it easy to press while scrolling. At least give me an option to have a list view like before or something.
I think adding variations to some of these rhythms would help out a lot because only 1 visual example for each rhythm is easy to identify after like 5 cycles.
Also there should be more rhythms in general. I’ve had this app for almost a year and not having simple ones like accelerated/ tachycardic idioventricular or WAP or MAT seems like easy additions.
Not asking for revolutionary changes here.

### 4/5 — Availability

*2023-10-27, version 1.2*

Is there a reason this app is not available on android? It’s been helpful in learning rhythm recognition but unfortunately I’m unable to extend the app to others that are not on iOS.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2023-09-28, version 1.2*

Absolutely Fantastic, works great and the extra purchase is worth it too.
Have you considered adding a Left Bundle Branch Block and maybe a 12 lead option?
