Apple should remove as this app is no longer supported and outdated, may cause EMS professionals to make mistakes.

Does not have current AHA guidelines.

Needs to be updated to reflect current guidelines. Considering they no longer make the pocket guide in print and electronic versions aren’t able to be used by students for testing it would be nice if the study tools were at least accurate.

Great app when it loads content

Love the app when it actually loads the content. Often it is blank and re-downloading the app is needed and veryInconvenient when needed on an emergency run.

App doesn’t work

I’ve had the app for about 4 years and when I open it, the home page is Black.
In addition to contacting tech support with no resolution.

It would be great if the bugs were fixed.

I don’t recommend this in its current state.

Update 3/2021

The Home page still doesn’t work. When the app is opened, the “Home Page” is black. No content just a Black Screen.

Screen menu does not load

When starting the AAP the main menu remains black yet all of the other menus work fine
The only way I can get the main menu to open is to reload the app
Not impressed for sure since I actually purchased it the other day

Needs version for iPad

This is a great product if you don’t want to carry the physical book in your pants all the time. I just wish that they had a iPad version available in addition to the iPhone. While I am able to download this on our iPad the logo is not there so it is not easy to find and I have to magnify the app and everything gets distorted. My service uses iPads for our PCRs and would buy this for every unit if it were more compatible with the iPad and I would buy another copy for my iPad mini that I bring with me on flight calls with my other quick reference guides.

Terrible

This is such a waste of money! The “topics” tab where most of the info is doesn’t even work it just appears black! So when you need it just forget it!

Please update App

This is one of
The greatest EMS resources for years! I would gladly pay $20 or more for an updated app with bug fixes. I hate when it hangs up while I’m using it in the field!!! Please update!!!!!

Ok

It’s great when it works. When the screen goes black, have to delete then download it again. Inconvenient. Good thing I also carry field guide.

Awesome quick reference!

I especially use it for prescribed medications. Not sure what the bad reviews are about. Works perfect on the iPhone 8 and X

Great App IN THEORY

If the app would actually work when I open it it’s a great tool. I have only had it open Once and work. Every other time I’ve ever opened it the screen has been black or it would just stick me on a screen and take away all the buttons to go back or forward. It is fixed by deleting it and re-downloading it, but who wants to do that on a call. Till they fix it it’s not worth the money
