### 1/5 — Doesn’t load

*2026-04-30, version 2.11*

I have paid for a subscription and it wont go off the starting page. It says my subscription has expired yet when I try to buy it, it says I have an active subscription. I have restored multiple times and nothing happens

### 2/5 — Things that could improve the app

*2021-07-08, version 1.3.11*

- should be able to type in key words 
- the design of the app is dull 
- be able to listen to it as an audio and video too 
- combine para pass , add more exercises so people can learn eg fun games

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2021-04-05, version 1.3.11*

Absolutely useless; have had an active subscription since November of last year yet when I try and access the app I get faced with a screen saying I don’t have an active subscription yet when I click on purchase  subscription it states I already have one so I’m stuck on the login page

### 5/5 — Query

*2020-12-19, version 1.3.11*

Hi! I’ve heard great reviews but I’m confused with which membership I need, what is the difference between the £2.99 and the £29.99?

### 2/5 — Annoying to use

*2020-12-18, version 1.3.11*

The app is good, with all the relevant information easy to access and search for. The offline feature is essential, and its good to know that the information on the app is always the most up to date. 

However whenever I need to read the tables I constantly have to scroll left and right across the page as they’re not optimised for the screen size. Can you alter the tables so only up/down scrolling is needed to read more information?

I am using the most updated version of the app on an IPhone X with the most recent software update. 

Thanks

### 2/5 — Extortion

*2020-04-13, version 1.3.9*

Been using this app for 4-5 years and now it’s gone from £20 to £30. Scumbags

### 4/5 — It’s an alright app!

*2019-11-09, version 1.3.8*

I’ve downloaded this app a little while back and i was alright with it at first. But I tend to have trouble finding particular things on the app itself which others are finding, such as as a Peak flow graph, in their JRCALC pocket books. So I was wondering, how would you unsubscribe from the app to prevent renewal so I can buy the pocket book instead?

### 1/5 — No support

*2019-08-01, version 1.3.8*

Lose your password and you’ll be in trouble none of the links work, disappointing.

### 1/5 — Poor

*2019-03-26, version 1.3.6*

The app never loads fully. I try to use the drugs page to check dosage etc and they NEVER open. Update this app

### 5/5 — Invaluable

*2019-01-09, version 1.3.6*

As a paramedic following the JRCALC guidelines is an absolute must and in this day and age, the app format is the only way to go. Updated frequently means you are not working to last years best practice. Easy and simple to use where you can find anything with a quick search or saving your favourite pages ready to be opened from the home screen.
