### 3/5 — 视频打不开

*2025-09-08*

1.花了那么多钱里面的3d解剖视频都打不开 非常差评2.但是解剖图谱与超声图对比这个效果不错 赶紧把视频播放解决下吧

### 5/5 — Different practice

*2025-01-29*

I moved to a small town where I am doing regional anesthesia daily. At my old practice, the providers did it in preop and I would do the case. Now that I am in charge of my patients from start to finish, I’ve had to review regional anesthesia. NYSORA APP is amazing. My new colleagues will come get my phone to review blocks that they have not done in awhile. They all want to get this wonderful app.

**Developer response:** Dear user, Thank you for reviewing us with 5-star rating. Please don't hesitate to suggest the app to your friends, and if you have any additional suggestions on how we can make the app even better, email us at nerveblocks@nysora.com. Best wishes, the NYSORA Team!

### 5/5 — Language

*2024-09-23, version 3.0.11*

Add Turkish language

### 5/5 — My review

*2024-08-15*

Have a great day. This app is the best app for studying and repeating, but probably you will get more attention by users if u add Russian language. Some people know English but it will be more informative for us  reading  with Russian. Anyway, doctors who is interesting in getting progress are using translator.

### 4/5 — Incredible, except…?

*2024-08-12*

Amazing app! Great information and UI. The only gripe is the (in)ability to turn to landscape mode for mobile (and specifically tablets, which are generally used in landscape orientation). It seems that this has been a common complaint for years, and is really the only thing holding this app back from being the #1 Regional app on the store!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your positive feedback! We at NYSORA are very happy that you are satisfied with our product. NYSORA team.

### 5/5 — Anesthesia

*2024-01-08, version 3.0.5*

### 1/5 — Inhalte lassen sich teilweise nicht öffnen!

*2023-07-28*

Leider lassen sich manche Inhalte in de App nicht öffnen, z. B. Die Videos zur interskalenören Blockade! Bitte diese Fehler beheben!!!

### 4/5 — 收费版有点不便宜，应该设一个终身版

*2023-07-12*

按年付费，还每年近600元，有点劝退收入低的住院医师。应该设一个终身版，哪怕比年费稍贵点都行

### 1/5 — iCloud Connection

*2023-06-19*

I recently got this app and it wanted me to sign in with my iCloud ID. I followed the steps, but it said I wasn’t connected in settings. I went to check but I actually was logged in. I tried to restart the app, reinstall the app, and I shut down my phone, but nothing worked!

**Developer response:** Dear User, to access the Nerve Blocks App you have to allow it to connect with your iCloud so that it can be available on multiple devices with the same iCloud credentials. To allow access to the iCloud you have to go to Settings on your iPhone - iCloud - and allow access to Nerve Blocks App there. If there is a way to solve this issue together email us at nerveblocksapp@nysora.com and I can send you screenshots of the process if needed. This is something that is requested by Apple so it is currently not possible for us to solve it any other way. Thank you for understanding and learning with us. NYSORA team!

### 5/5 — CRNA

*2025-02-10*

Excellent app. I use this app to reinforce my regional anesthesia knowledge and techniques. I have attended NYSORA annual course 5 Xs in NYC before it was moved overseas. I always learned something new to improve our practice. Dr Hadzic and his colleagues are excellent teachers. The symposiums were enjoyable and well produced. Please
continue to produce new content.
