What's New in DART Sim

13.1

November 10, 2026

Fixes • Fixed the app freezing and then quitting when opening 12 Lead on older iPads (iPad Air 2, iPad 7th and 9th generation, iPadOS 16 and 17). Every heartbeat was redrawing the whole screen; the 12-lead report is now built once and the pulse bar is the only thing that beats. • Fixed a crash on Macs with Apple silicon when opening Scenarios or any vital-sign setter. iPads and iPhones were not affected by that one. • DART Sim now runs as a single window on the Mac, as on the iPad.

era mejor antes

antes de actualizar era una muy buena app ahora perdí todos los casos que tenía y el control remoto no pasa al siguiente paso del caso clínico

Wow, What a great simulator!!

I have to say this application is really convenient for teaching ACLS and PALS courses. I like how cheap it is compared to other options out there. My department purchased iPads specifically to run this program. In the past we paid thousands of dollars on real defibrillators and rhythm generators. We auctioned off our old Zoll monitors we used for training on ebay. We got 6 new iPads and our department had plenty of money left over. Thank you for making such a great product!

Thank you for your review. We just released our biggest update in 10 years! I am hoping this update will surpass your expectations. Thank you again, Erik DeAnda - CEO/Founder.

D.A.R.T sim problems

On iPad (6th gen), the Classic DART Sim screen overflows the device frame even at the smallest recommended font size, making the Keypad, 12 Lead, NIBP, Mode, Media, and Pacemaker Pause buttons inaccessible, and tapping 12 Lead causes the app to freeze and crash. The Task button freezes the app on every screen in the same way. On the ZOLL X Series Advanced screen, tapping the left-side Parameter button also freezes the app, and this mode is additionally missing a Bluetooth connect button. Please investigate the layout/scaling support for iPad 6th-gen devices and the crash triggers on the 12 Lead, Task, and Parameter buttons, and add the missing Bluetooth connect button to the ZOLL X Series Advanced screen.

They broke a serviceable simulator

I opened the dart sim app that I’ve used for years to teach ACLS, PALS, and EKGs and I found it wrecked. I can no longer use an on-screen menu to select arrhythmias, the visual interface is awkward, the heart rate disappears to “1… “ if it exceeds 100, and many other aggravating and unnecessary changes. The update occurred without warning or permission. I would like to restore my traditional version and have the option to avoid the update

Response from developer

UPDATE: We just released another update today 10/08/2026. I see your on Version 12.6. Try updating your App to version 12.9. Thank you for telling me and I'm sorry the update disrupted your teaching. Next time you can also text me directly for the quickest response. The number is on our website ECG-Simulator.com. You found a real bug: with iPadOS Larger Text turned up, the monitor's numbers truncated to "1…" and the bottom row of keys, including the Keypad used to choose rhythms, was pushed off the screen. Version 12.7 fixes this for every text size and just got released today 10/05/2026. Two things that may help right away: the rhythm Keypad is the first key at the bottom-left of the classic screen, and the classic DART Sim look is still the default; if the LIFEPAK or ZOLL look was chosen, the gear menu's Device Look returns to classic. Automatic updates can be turned off in Settings, App Store, so future versions install only when you choose. If anything else from the old version is missing, please write to Admin@ecg-simulator.com and I will put it back. Thank you, Erik DeAnda - CEO/Founder
