### 2/5 — Needs updating

*2017-11-19*

Good app with useful info. Real shame it’s not up to date with ios11

### 3/5 — 3 stars

*2012-12-10*

Seems to have all the basics covered.  Great for beginners and as a refresher ..

### 2/5 — RN

*2012-08-09*

Expected more than just flash cards & a quiz. If you miss a question, an explanation would be helpful in knowing why. Thanks...

### 2/5 — Basic

*2012-06-26*

Very basic ECG. Common rhythms. Not much else

### 2/5 — Not worth it

*2012-06-09*

Not worth $1.99.  Rhythm strips too small.  Other apps will enlarge this won't. Too basic for $1.99.

### 4/5 — Not bad

*2012-04-17*

Good for basic review and those just learning

### 4/5 — Good

*2012-02-14*

Good basic review, wish it had more variety!

### 4/5 — Great Review

*2012-02-14*

Good as a basic review. Especially for those of us who use these skills infrequently.

### 4/5 — Helpful

*2012-01-27*

I was able to use this app as a review for ACLS. I wish they would add second degree type 2 heart block strips. Otherwise, contains brief but accurate descriptions.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2012-01-26*

Great app for really cementing in your basics. I use the quizzes before going to bed every other day and have really increased my interpretation skills in real life. Maybe more strips could be added for each type of rhythm so that it becomes more challenging.

### 1/5 — Crap

*2021-05-11, version 4.0*

Absolutely terrible, hard to navigate and very poorly out together overall, save your money and use YouTube

### 1/5 — Not updated for Ios11

*2017-10-23*

Was a great app... extremely disappointed to see that developer did not update it

**Developer response:** The app has been updated to iOs 11 for a while. Can you update your review?

### 1/5 — Limited material

*2017-08-29*

Disappointed to have spent money on this app--There are only 21 strips to be quizzed on (each a "textbook" example of a common rhythm). Not useful for testing yourself on ECG skills.

Edit: Developer says there are 80+ strips but the quiz keeps showing the same 21. So I stand by my review.

**Developer response:** There are 80 strips right off the main menu, so right off the bat you seem to be missing something. There is also additional educational material besides just strips. It is meant to be an introduction to ECG, if you need more than that, move on to more expensive and detailed material. Send an email if you need technical support.

### 1/5 — Don't bother

*2016-07-11*

It's a poorly put together app. I'd love a refund

**Developer response:** This is not the appropriate place to ask for a refund. Care to send us an email with details?

### 1/5 — Firefighter

*2013-08-08*

Total rip off. You spend the money. It lets you go through a list of strips Maude 48 and shuts off. Don't waist your money.

### 1/5 — basic errors in the interpretation

*2013-01-13*

DO NOT BUY THIS APP. This app will reinforce instead of correct the most common errors in the interpretation of arrythmias. The authors indicate atrial sensing with there is clear atrial pacing every other P wave. With a little more attention they could have observed the ¨pairing¨of the complexes. Most importantly, a case of clear sinus bradicardia and PACs is mistaken by atrial fibrillation. Lead V1 shows consistent P waves. Anticoagulation of this patient would  make a good case for a lawyer. Sinus nodal block is proposed for a case of pronounced sinus arrhythmia which is commonly seen in young patients (this ECG seems to be from a young patient).

**Developer response:** The interpretations have been reviewed by one or more MD's

### 1/5 — Ecg

*2012-11-02*

So disappointed,expected more ecg quizzes& samples,not enough quizzes or ecg samples.

### 1/5 — Keg

*2011-09-01*

Strips are too small to read. CPR guidelines outdated. Not worth it.

### 1/5 — Waste of dough

*2011-08-16*

The images are small and almost unreadable. No ischemia examples. No conduction abnormalities. Rip off.

### 1/5 — Очень слабая программа

*2011-08-11*

Мало примеров экг-лент, очень мелкое изображение, качать не стоит.

I am EMT trying to learn more strips and agree that they are too small. If they weren't I would rate it a 5.
