Only One Thing Missing
I love everything about this app but I would suggest one feature. In the personal information section, we should be able to upload a profile picture.
Playback issues
The content is great. The UI feels clean. However, I have had multiple issues with being able to watch videos on the app (which is what 90% of the app is). Audio frequently cuts out and I have to pause the video and unpause to get the audio back. This can occur as often as every 30 seconds and ruins the learning experience. There is also some type of bug where changing the video into landscape mode can cause the video and sometimes the whole app to freeze. I have to open and quit the app multiple times to get one video to play. It will for sure freeze the video every single time I change to landscape. This is very frustrating. I have the same issues on my ipad. My only work around is to only use the website for content viewing. When the app works, it’s great.

Best study tool for EMS provider!
Love the new version
The latest version is a lot nicer and feels faster.
App doesn’t work
You can sign in, and sometimes see content. However, trying to get the content to play is a no go. Very frustrating. And yes, I've installed the latest version.
Not User Friendly
Annoying that you can’t rewind 15 seconds (or more) if you want to hear something again without the entire video starting over (sometimes to the detriment of 10+ mins of content). Also, having to click through lessons already covered to catch-up and pickup where you left off is annoying. Finally, the relentless logon requirement isn’t great and there’s no way to review content offline (like on long flights or in areas without good reception - aka hospitals).
Good content but the user experience is far from ideal.

Can’t login
Just downloaded it and bought the subscription and the link to sign in does not work. 😓
Great Content / App needs work
This is the most engaging content I have ever used with CEUs. Very informative, and I want to keep learning. The only thing is the app has a bunch of problems time to time, and it’s a huge downer. Another thing I would recommend is to put subtitles. Personally I am a huge subtitle guy, but they is no option for it.

Stop shopping around. You found it!
Many critical care apps and websites out there, tried many of them. This one, by far, is the best. Excellent and entertaining. No “death by PowerPoint” here. Well worth it at a fraction of the price of other OVERPRICED others. Enjoy
Unable to enter bio info.
I am unable to enter the bio information. It will not save the information. With that being the case, it will not allow me to do a course.
Having issues
The desktop version works fine. When I attempt to use the app, all I get is a black screen.
I wish the app worked better.
The FOAMfrat team is amazing and the content is comparable to none. However the platform is way buggy. The videos glitch out and restart then won’t allow me to rewind without starting over. Having to restart an hour long module several times to get back to the 30 minute mark makes it to buggy and annoying to use. When I try to go to my profile from the app and get routed to web version it does not load. When I take a quiz it won’t load CEUs until the 5th time and giving up my first born child.
FOAMfrat team and content 10/5 stars.
FOAMfrat app 1/5 stars.
You guys keep up the great work!!

App does not work
I hate to say it, because I like listening to their podcast, but the app simply does not work. I can only see one video thumbnail and it won’t even show the video when I tap the icon. Instead, it just took me straight to the test. The other thumbnail is for the “self-paced” section won’t do anything
When I tried to input my certification info, it would not accept the expiration dates. The website did fine with the same info, so I have no clue what the hang-up was.
The whole reason I chose this platform was because they had an app that I could use to get CEs away from a computer, but apparently not.

Disappointed this year.
Last year the app was amazing. The content was great. But this year, there are so many glitches. The videos don’t load and when they do, I watch the whole video and then the test does not pop up. Why spend the money when it’s not going to work. I’ll find another way to get my hours next year.
App Issues
The staff at FOAMfrat are exceptionally knowledgeable in the subjects they cover. I am continually humbled by how little I know. That said, I have issues with the app. I am unable to progress through the modules. For instance, I currently only have access to the Podcasts under self paced. I am unable to exit back to the title menu or access any other content.

Content > App
The content from FoamFrat is top notch. Very informative and interesting. Some of the best training videos I’ve seen produced. However, the app has some major bugs. It will either skip through the entire lesson down to the last video or not let you move on to the next video after the first one plays. I really like this platform and really wish the app worked better, but will be deleting and just using the web platform until this is fixed.

App works terribly
App works terribly, can’t move on to next video, or it completely skips through the whole program. Hopefully it’s fixed.
Log in??
How do you log in for the first time?? I can’t get in to set up an account?
Needs work
It would be nice to have the “learning pathway” option on the app. Also, on iPhone there’s been issues where it doesn’t let you go to the next part of the course.
Love the company
I love the company, love the classes. The app is having issues. After my last two live classes, I have completed the tests, but each time it will not let me complete the survey, so I have to start all over on the website. Eventually deleted the app because the website would keep redirecting to the app.
