### 1/5 — Crashes constantly with new phone

*2023-11-13*

This 5 star app has dropped to a 1 star.  Just replaced my old IPhone 7 with a brand new IPhone 14 with IOS 17.0.3 . 
I can no longer use this App.  It worked great with old Iphone but not anymore. When I select anything the program quits. 
Until the developers fix the bugs with the latest IOS operating system it is useless . 
An otherwise excellent App which I hope to be using again soon .

### 2/5 — It’s not great

*2023-10-26*

Crashes with the new IOS so can’t use it. Lots of weird spelling errors and it’s organized poorly.  I don’t care about “acknowledgments” in the middle of app when I’m trying to find something in an emergency.

### 1/5 — Outdated protocols

*2023-02-22, version 2.2*

PLEASE DO NOT USE TO TREAT PATIENTS - these protocols are at least two generations out of date at this point.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-02-20, version 2.2*

I would love if this app actually worked. I can change the region but that’s it. If I try to tap anything else it force closes. Would be so much easier to use the app at work than trying to look it up online.

### 2/5 — New update 😠

*2023-02-10, version 2.2*

Since installing the latest update, the only part of the app that works is, Med control & the tools.  The rest of the options shut the app down when you click on them. I have uninstalled, reinstalled with no luck.

### 1/5 — Unable to stay on this app

*2023-01-11, version 2.2*

I’ve use this app for a while, but now it keeps kicking me off and I’m not able to open any of the programs. I’ve tried to contact the app with no luck. Hoping they see this and fix there app. Please

### 4/5 — Medical control.

*2022-12-27, version 2.2*

Stony Brook hospital. SUNY. Not listed for medical control

### 2/5 — App okay

*2022-01-28, version 2.2*

All sections are not greyed out like the beginning.  Difficult to see different sections. Could be much easier and developer should fix that. 

Cannot search a word and open the protocol.  A search function is great if it works.

### 3/5 — Bring the app forward into the future

*2021-04-08, version 2.2*

More could and can be done with this app but I guess the simple things first. Most of the codes to the hospitals have changed. How about updated list of what protocols have changed? New lay out?

### 1/5 — Constantly crashing

*2021-03-06, version 2.2*

Makes it no good during a call. Time for an update!
