Better mobile use than apex but needs improvement.

Leaving the below for context for an original 3 star review. The MA team responded to my concerns and updated their app within less than two weeks of posting. Can’t beat that for responsiveness.

Original review:

Finding MA to be much more user friendly and experience on mobile than APEX for continuing ed, and it has elements that vastly improve on what Vargo/CoExistinf offers. However, the app is in desperate need of a few improvements:

1) Most importantly, a way to change font size.

2) A per-lesson way to leave feedback or suggest corrections. For $450, it bums me out to see major typos and sentences that just drop off in the middle of a thought. You have a lot of content, and proofreading is hard, but there’s no simple way for users to help you correct mistakes, and this devalues your product.

Thank you, Jay. You were right on both counts, and we got to work the same week. Version 3.1.6, released nine days after your review, adds a text size and appearance control in every lesson, plus a "Suggest a correction" sheet on every lesson so you can flag a typo or a dropped sentence right where you see it, and we fix it from there. We also went back through the course text ourselves and corrected 29 lessons, including the cut-off sentences you mentioned, with audio re-recorded where it changed. Update to 3.1.6 and give it another look. If it now earns it, we would be grateful for a 5-star update to this review. Either way, thank you for pushing us to be better. Matthew, Master Anesthesia

Amazing resource. Constantly updated with current evidence. And gives little snippets of evidence based practice updates in email.

By far the best companion app for anyone in the anaesthesia field.

Improving all the time

I’ve been using MA for at least 5 or so years. It’s a great app and each update is an amazing improvement. I recommend this app to colleagues all the time. It’s easy to navigate and easy to read especially in the OR. Keep up the great work!

The best anesthesia resource

Love this app so much for my anesthesia practice. Easy to use, comprehensive, relevant information that’s actually useful for everyday practice. Worth every penny

Great tool! Easy to use! Currently using for insight to foreign procedures, developing anesthetic plan, dosing, and weights. Highly recommend.

Calculator

Why has the calculator not been working? The app has been shutting down every time I try to access it on both phone and iPad. It’s also not available on the website.

Great

One of the reasons I bought the continuing education package was that it is usable in the app. It’s much more user friendly to do it this way than logging in to APEX in a browser on my phone, which is what I did when studying for boards and not in front of my laptop. Accessing the material is simple and the lessons are concise and to the point. Would highly recommend to anyone in the field

Absolutely appreciate this review more than I can say. These CEs were built after going through so many myself—I designed them to be the “better way” I always wished for - there’s a lot more coming in this part of the app!

Impressive App!

Overall, the user interface is intuitive and makes it easy to rapidly access information. I am just getting started with my anesthesia education and I look forward to using the app in clinical practice.

Great app for SRNA for clinical

This app is amazing to have while on clinical. Helps with drug calculation. It’s so easy and fast to access. I wish I knew about this app sooner.

CE’s

Great site for CE’s. The format is easy to use and you can do one and pick right back up where you left off the next time. Very affordable and an easy way to knock out some CE’s.

This app has been a lifesaver for clinical! This app has a wealth of information regarding specific cases and set ups that some of the other popular apps don’t have. Highly recommend!

Recently downloaded this app to prepare me for clinical rotations, and I have been blow away so far. Very easy to use and very informative. I feel more confident and prepared to begin my rotations now because of this app. Matthew, well done!

Onerous purchase verification

This is a great app and it has come with great updates over the few years since I started using it. Still the app frequently logs me out and/or attempts to verify I am a pro member. This process is still far too clunky in my opinion. Sometimes it takes up to thirty seconds to do its thing before loading content. Sometimes I have to force quit the app and try again. Other times I can’t get in at all if there is poor cellular or WiFi signal. Overall a great app just wish this issue could be eliminated.
