Total Scam

None of the surgical set ups are available unless you pay!!! 🤬This app seems like it could be very beneficial but there’s no option for a free trial and I refuse to pay for an app claiming to help with surgical set ups without at least a trial first. Even 3 days free to explore the app and determine its accuracy would be great. Also this app won’t let me login to the app, it just gets stuck on checking the connection then won’t let me click the X in upper left corner so I have to completely close the app to get out of that screen or click what looks like a refresh icon in the upper right corner but really it just takes you to the login page on the internet browser but doesn’t transfer to the app. Would definitely purchase and app or subscription for something beneficial but considering I can’t even login I’d say this app/website pro membership is 110% NOT WORTH IT. Total scam if they can’t even solve simple bugs like logging in. Makes me question the accuracy of the locked content. You’re better off buying a $200 textbook

Pictures

Unable to zoom into the picture to get closer look. It doesn’t log into the app. Even if you pay for pro membership.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the feedback! We've recently done a major update and I see this broke the log in on the mobile app only. We've fixed this issue. We're also investigate the lack of zoom on the mobile app. Zoom is currently supported on all mobile browsers when visiting CSTSetup.com. For fast support on any other issues please visit us at cstsetup.com/support/ or by emailing app@cstsetup.com

Changed format no more access

Pro membership DOES NOT give driver access to info
Poor quality

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. Pro membership unlocks additional features such as specialty setups (Cardiac, ENT, Neuro, and more), instrument flashcards, custom flashcard creation, dark mode, and profile enhancements. We recently updated the format to prioritize your setups on the home page, but site setups are still accessible by searching from the top search bar or through browsing by clicking the setup button in the top right. If you have specific concerns or need assistance, please reach out to us at app@cstsetup.com. Your input is valuable, and we’re here to help!
