Weird sound

I used to love this app but now it has a weird scratchy noise after every beat. It has become a distraction so I’ve quit using it on codes. I’ve tried updating. It has happened on two devices. Otherwise it was a great app

Amazing!!

Every EMT should have this app installed in case you need it.

Just used it last night on a code.

Really helped the crew..

Amateurish

Every metronome chirp is followed by a burst of static. The defibrillator/rhythm check button isn’t logically named as each check doesn’t prompt a shock. Neither the rhythm check nor epinephrine counters provide an audible signal.

Falling quality

Have you used this for years and it has been fantastic. However now there is a terrible noise with the metronome I’m unable to fix, and every other user I know has the same issues.

Sound

Please fix the sound so it’s not scratchy. It’s sounds like a blown speaker and is very distracting and easy to get off beat with the secondary sound. It makes the app seem faulty.
