ED physician
I’ve been using EM:RAP since residency—over 15 years now—and it has consistently been an excellent resource for staying current with the latest medical literature and developments in emergency medicine. I particularly value the monthly EMA episodes, which provide a concise and practical review of important new research

Lacks External Button Control Option
Needs option to switch External Buttons from Next/Previous to Forward/Back like the native Apple Podcast app offers.
I want to be able to tap my AirPods or car steering controllers to rewind 15/30 sec NOT restart/skip my entire chapter

This app is so painful
I love EM:RAP as a podcast but this app is terrible. It loads so slowly, if at all. Even when it loads it can’t always handle itself; visible buttons won’t click because it runs so slowly. Even trying to post this review the app crashed. The is way too much fluff on the app; just have it load the content I subscribe too. It defaults to load the dashboard tab which is useless so I have to wait for it to let me click to audio. Even the audio tab has “continue listening” row that doesn’t work because it shows segments from a decade ago that I’ve never listened to. If I click “mark as listened” then that segment disappears and replaced with another never ending list of segments I’ve never listened to. Lastly, the new weekly format is dangerous. EMRAP has acknowledged that most listeners listen while driving. It used to be two easy access monthly chapters (EMRAP and EMA) but now they separate it to weekly so we have to do even more clicks that don’t load? Plus, each EMRAP chapter is inserted with several EMA summaries I’d have recurrently skip; just give me the autonomy to choose to listen to a summary or not.

Video organization awful
EMRAP as an educational organization is amazing but this app needs some seeious restructuring. It used to be much easier to stay on top of the new videos using the app. Now I don’t know which ones I have seen and which ones I have not. It’s all jumbled up. Help!
Great app
Best app ever I’m so grateful to have this resource to lean on and learn from, thank you!
Slow buggy iOS app
Content good, app terrible
Thank you for what you do
I am a mid-level provider (practitioner) I work in a rural days ER where we don’t have a lot of specialties around, we don’t get the opportunity to practice many of the procedures and diagnosis that you discussed here. So I thank you for helping me stay on top of my game to do the best that I can do.

Won’t Download to iPhone
Have been an EMRAP listener for 20+ years. Love the content, hate the App. Haven’t been able to download it to my phone for years now. Not a huge issue but there are areas on my way to work that don’t have strong cell signal (or some flights) so can’t always stream.
Best study pod on the market
Every manicure, commute, long walk. I love emrap
The best
Required listening to maintain competency. Always some need to know stuff and “I didn’t know that” stuff
EMRAP
This is my favourite and highest value CME

Love the Em: Rap team but very disappointed no longer covering primary care. Was a PCMA listener since the 1990’s. I attribute Rick and Jerry’s insights allowing me to this day to give good care to my patients. ROP with Ken and Steve was a pretty good substitute but now that is gone.
Cannot add podcasts to playlist!
The Add button to add videos to a playlist does nothing. It does not work!
MD
Keeping up on the literature for 30+ years. The BEST.
Fundamental Missing Features
Lacks playback speed control on the native iOS Lock Screen player. Have to open the app anytime I want to throttle up/down.
Horrible design
They updated this and chopped it into weekly and it’s so glitchy and incapable of seamless delivery. It’s highly annoying to use and the lack of user friendliness is making me a lot less forgiving of the fact that the content is going down in quality
Great Content, logistical problems.
I use this app a lot. Between EM:RAP and EMA, I listened to 176 hours in the last two years. I don’t like the new weekly format but I understand why it happened. Two things just need to be fixed:
1. CME needs to be in the app. There’s just no reason in 2025 that we don’t have this yet. Show us that this is a priority.
2. Those of us who listen to the monthly recap still have to go and individually check off the sections we listened to before we can get CME credit. This should be an easy fix.

Super glitchy app
For the past few months, the app has become super glitchy. I love the content, but the app really needs an update. The app crashes about every 10 minutes when I am listening to it through Bluetooth
In my car. I have uninstalled and reinstalled with no improvement. For the price that I pay for the program, I would expect better.

App issues
Content is great. And the app has improved over the years but still buggy. The end chapter does not show up as played. If I don’t manually mark them as played, the unfinished episodes accumulate.
Other issues as well.
