User Reviews

Users cite persistent stability and access problems: the app often crashes or won't open, login credentials fail, and the app freezes or logs out frequently. Quizzes and test workflows are hampered by UI glitches, such as hidden submit buttons or keyboard blocking True/False choices. Several reviews also note content issues, including outdated issue dates and poor synchronization of subscriptions across devices, with occasional car‑play incompatibilities. Despite these drawbacks, CME features and broad content remain strengths.
Pros
  • Works as advertised, simple and useful for content consumption and CME credits.
  • Easy access to downloadable content and offline listening.
  • CME credits after quizzes (immediate credit).
  • Presenters do a good job with fair critiques.
  • Broad catalog across specialties and ability to browse topics.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and inability to launch/open.
  • Login/sign-in failures and credentials not recognized.
  • Slow, buggy performance with frequent glitches and logouts.
  • Quizzes/workflow UI issues (hidden submit button, keyboard blocking True/False).
  • Content synchronization issues and outdated content across devices (including CarPlay).
