### 2/5 — No Dosages??

*2024-07-22, version 6.0*

It is incredulous to me that a reference app for in-the-moment resuscitation guidance of clinicians would lack dosages of all of the ACLS and PALS drugs. There is so much white space in the algorithms and it could be added with updated information for free. 
Also. The default when the app is opened should be the algorithm, NOT a practice test. Seconds count.

### 4/5 — Typically love it but there’s a bug right now

*2024-04-22, version 6.0*

In the Mega codes, I’ll answer the first question by clicking the answer and then try to press continue and it won’t do anything. I’ve tried waiting after I press and it still doesn’t work. It’s happened in multiple mega codes and I’ve tried exiting the app and coming back in.

### 4/5 — It’s okay

*2020-12-11, version 4.1*

I recently purchased their book thinking it was by AHA because of their similar front cover design until I got a good look and realized it was by NHCPS. Now with that said, just like the book, this app had similar errors, which are minor, but if you’re new to taking ACLS, you might not catch the mistake. I’m keeping both for now because I like the simplicity of both. It makes reviewing easy. I do wish there was more practice tests.

### 1/5 — Not going to create an account

*2026-08-22, version 9.0.2*

App worked fine for years the way it was, but now we have to create an account and give you our data? Bye.

### 1/5 — Not for practice.

*2024-03-19, version 6.0*

App is selling ACLS. Not to practice ACLS. Disappointed!!

### 1/5 — Not 2020 AHA Guidelines updated

*2021-04-16, version 4.3*

I’ve used this app in years prior, and liked it, but they have not yet updated into the 2020 AHA guidelines yet. I would not recommend it because you’ll be using outdated and  incorrect information.

### 1/5 — Fake reviews

*2020-09-03, version 4.0*

How did these guys get away with all these fake reviews! Lol. This app is awful.

### 1/5 — Crashes unable to use

### 1/5 — Ayuda

*2020-05-06, version 3.9*

Cuando intento abrir el contenido del curso, no me deja y me sale esto: At this time, due to an unexpected increase in traffic we're experiencing technical difficulties. Our team is actively working to accommodate and are here to assist you, as we look for a solution.

### 1/5 — Just let me use the app

*2019-09-18, version 3.6*

These people will keep trying to contact you.

### 1/5 — Unstable

*2019-02-19, version 3.3*

App is easy to navigate, though often does not load pages or images or freezes and crashes. Quite frustrating.

### 1/5 — Good info but VERY glitchy!

*2018-12-10, version 3.3*

Good info and practice, I’d like to see more though. Also the MegaCodes are extremely glitchy which doesn’t help with the time constraint to the point of not being able to practice. If I could practice and this gets fixed, I’ll increase my rating.

### 1/5 — Need corrections

*2018-07-27, version 3.1*

Correct tachycardia in pals algorythms: no synchronized cardioversion for unstable patients?
