It keeps saying poor internet connection. Very disappointing, especially when the courses they offer say to download it. ### 1/5 — Poor Connection Retry Error *2024-04-13* I am getting a connection error, regardless of whether or not I’m on my Wi-Fi or cellular data. The app is completely unuseable and needs to be fixed. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2024-04-08* I redownloaded twice and it keeps telling me I have poor connection and doesn’t allow me to see any content. My internet connection is fine. ### 1/5 — Poor connection *2024-04-06* Gave app permissions and it’s not loading anything. Imagine being in a situation that the app is needed and the app does not work. Cause that’s what’s happening ### 1/5 — Won’t lemme in *2024-03-11* It says I have poor connection at 3 bars of wifi and won’t lemme download the thingy fix this!!! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2024-01-14* The app is unavailable to use, it says “poor connection” and can’t go past that even though I’m on my home’s WiFi ### 1/5 — Connection error *2023-11-13* Unsure what this is, but it appears to be an issue with the app. Looks like mother users have the same problem. Deleted now will reload if I see some comments of it being fixed ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Useless *2024-05-15* Just gives me an error that says “Poor connection“, despite having a very good connection. ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work *2024-05-13* Just as others have said, it says I have a poor connection and won’t work. Sure hope this gets fixed soon. ### 1/5 — Ew *2024-05-11* It says I have "poor connection" I'm on my home WiFi with full bars like dude seriously I don't recommend ### 1/5 — Poor Connection Issue *2024-05-08* Please fix the poor connection issue! This app was highly recommended by my instructor but even after using multiple devices and multiple Wi-Fi connections, I still cannot access this app! ☹️ ### 1/5 — Won’t open *2024-05-07* The app won’t open saying there is poor connectivity. ### 1/5 — Won’t work *2024-05-05* It just says poor connection, or error. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work *2024-05-01* All I get out a a poor connection message when trying to open the app. Tried several times and several places. Useless ### 1/5 — Doesn’t even work *2024-04-30* This must be a joke or a metaphor of an app to teach us to never rely on an app during an emergency situation. But still, I was hoping for something I could reference every now and then to keep my first aid skills sharp. Amateur developers. ### 1/5 — Network Error *2024-04-29* Having huge issues. Says the internet is not strong enough to handle the download. No network connection issues exist. Device has access to a tone of BW. Can not proceed so I guess will delete ### 1/5 — Can’t get the App to work *2024-04-24* The app downloads but I can’t set it up, it says poor connection check WiFi but there’s nothing wrong with my WiFi. Frustrating ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Life saver app *2023-05-26* This app should be in every mobile as a great reference material for handling medical emergency till the EMS/911 response team come to give proper rescue assistance ### 5/5 — Easy to follow; clear; concise *2021-11-14, version 3.4.0* And has quizzes to check your knowledge. Very handy for non medical rescuer to have. ### 5/5 — IOC - In Case of Emergency *2019-05-26* We all know of the feature “IOC” that Apple has setup on your iPhone so if you get hurt and can’t speak for yourself any ERT can grab your iPhone and Swipe and have access to your critical information like allergies, blood type, medication, who to contact (Family or Friend) etc. But what about when you need to help another person in an emergency and you are not sure what to do? This Red Cross App can be your Red Cross First Aid teacher in the field. This app has some great information built into the app to help you out for just about any First Aid situation. Family vacation, hike in the back country, drive on the highway, swimming at the beach, camping with the family, etc. What ever situation it is, having this APP and a good First Aid Kit, will have you ready to help you just never know when you will need it. This APP is not a substitute for First Aid Training as Training really works, I have taken it every 2 or 3 years for over 35 years, Emergency First Aid (1 Day), Standard First Aid (2 Day), Infant First Aid (1 Day). Each course many, many times and as recently as 2 months ago for refreshing my Standard First Aid which has been valid for over 20 years. 2 weeks after taking “Infant First Aid” I saved my 4 month old daughter from chocking on a Kleenex lodged in her throat. With Standard First Aid Training I actually dislodged a large piece of chicken from my Superintendant’s throat using the Heimlich manoeuvre (twice) while working in the Canadian Arctic on a very remote Industrial Construction Project. Countless types of situations happen and getting “First Aid Training” and having this Great FREE “First Aid App” at the ready and you “Got This” Be prepared to help someone because you just never know! - Safety Mike ### 4/5 — Good app... *2017-08-28* But you guys forgot to add how to prepare for world war 3 😂😂😂💯 ### 3/5 — Great addition for First Responders / first aid providers *2017-09-28* But would love to see an additional feature.
