### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2023-10-08*

Bought the app thinking it was as good as the book. It is terrible. Clunky, not efficient. 1,000 clicks to get information. Not well made. Don't waste your money. Wish i could get my money back

### 2/5 — Not for Emergency Situations

*2021-06-21*

Missing and incomplete information.
Hard to find necessary information during emergency situations.  Not recommended.  (Emergency Physician).

### 3/5 — Good info was hoping for more

*2018-05-05*

For the price there was not as much information as I was hoping for. I did not find navigating the interface to be difficult or very time consuming

### 1/5 — Not updated for iPhone 6/7

*2016-10-23*

Good content but for some reason still uses screen resolution for iPhone 5 so all the content is huge and kind of blurry on newer phones. Desperately needs an update.

### 3/5 — Difficult to use

*2016-08-28*

The information contained within is AWESOME! But the way the information is presented is subpar. It takes SOOOO many taps to get to the information I want. i.e. the way the app is setup/formatted makes it difficult to use. This is NOT ideal in an emergency situation. Not a very intuitive interface. Needs a serious update.

### 1/5 — need laws for app refunds

*2015-11-03*

Pitiful

### 4/5 — Optimize for 6/6+

*2015-04-03*

Love the app but please optimize for the iPhone 6 / 6 plus! The abx guide was updated and I was hoping this would have been updated at the same time.

### 4/5 — Good but...

*2015-02-18*

Still needs to be optimized for iPhone 6.

### 4/5 — Almost there

*2015-02-08*

Good material but does not fully utilize the mobile format as it should.  I love the paper version and this has all that good information.  The problem is that you can't bookmark anything in the resources and can't search them either.  All other sections can do this.  Please fix this!

### 5/5 — Critical care at your fingertips

*2013-05-01*

Clean interface. Accurate info. Widely comprehensive in the world of critical care emergency medicine. Responded to my suggestions to add thyroid storm w/in 24 hrs. Impressed.
