Horrible change
Bought the app in the past, then after I got a new phone, the app would no longer load without logging in and switching to subscription purchase. Support said they no longer honor prior purchases, in direct violation of Apple Developer Guideline 3.1.2(a) “If you are changing your existing app to a subscription-based business model, you should not take away the primary functionality of existing users have already paid for.”

Was a free safety check
I use this very few and far between and kept it as a handy safety verification. I even paid to download it which was reasonable. But they went to a subscription based service and that’s just showing that companies value money over patient safety
Update made app unusable
I had previously paid to use the app and now they require an annual subscription. The app doesn’t even work now. I have tried to login and it just fails. Charging an annual fee for an app that exists purely to save 1 minute is wild. All of this info can be looked up online easily. The app was just faster. I can’t even login anymore to renew subscription if I wanted to haha

Total scam!
I have to buy this app every year to do my job. I wish I could invest that money for my son instead! ASRA is stealing money from babies!
Scam money grab
Paid for the app now they want me to pay an annual fee on top of it. Just a cheap money grab. Shame on you.
Greedy ASRA
Mediocre app for a company that bait and switches you on your purchase.
Greed over patient safety
Unbelievable that ASRA has put their guidelines behind a monthly paywall. Imagine if the ACC or AHA did the same? Delegitimizes the entire organization.
Bait and switch
Paid for this app and now it's become a subscription
Buyer Beware - Corrupt Society Resource!
Recently learned the ASRA is taking legal action against other docs sharing guidelines that should be freely and publicly available through digital platforms. Cancelled immediately! Do not give these people your money.
Money grabbing
Trash
Predatory
Should not have to pay for publicly available info
Scammers
Nice scam taking my money then switching to a subscription model.
Do not get
I would give this app 0 stars if I could
Not mission guided
I am so disappointed that you went after Rishi.
Your mission is, “to advance the science and practice of regional anesthesia and pain medicine to improve patient outcomes through research, education, and advocacy.” Doesn’t seem that way with the way you are preventing Free Open Access Medical Education because you’re for profit.

ASRA will not get another penny from me
Embarrassing money grab after paying a “one-time” fee, only to be converted to a subscription model and then utilizing funds to legally intimidate other physicians who offer free alternatives for guidelines that are freely available. Shameless grifting.
Bait and switch
I paid my one time fee, now I have to pay a subscription for publicly supported research? You’re going after RishiMD for doing the right thing? Awful
Unsavory business behavior from an institution that hides critical information behind a subscription
This information is critical for patient care and was initially available via the app for a 1 time purchase. But greed and poor choices have led them to adopt a subscriptions based model. Very disappointing to see this from such a highly regarded institution.
ASRA is disappointing
I paid a one time fee as a resident to have access to this information to help patients. ASRA decided to charge a subscription. They’ve sent a cease and desist letter to another app developer who publicly provided this information for residents like me who are financially constrained. Would not recommend. ASRA should be ashamed of themselves.

Bait and switch.
Unbelievable, that they would lock out someone who paid for it when it was originally a one time fee.
An embarrassment of a medical society.

Shameless cash grab
Purchased lifetime access in 2020, ASRA decided to say too bad and start charging an annual subscription with no grandfather clause.
