Ratings and reviews

Like most reviews, the content is great, the app is terrible. Freezes, loads slowly, makes you enter your info & type of cme credit all the time. It doesn't really remember where you are easily if you're going through the back catalog so you've gotta just scroll & scroll till you get there. Their desire to protect their IP with a bad ap has frustrated me so much that I don't listen as much as I used to & may not subscribe again once this year runs out. Must be prioritizing IOS over Android.

The content is fantastic. Both the website and the app are nearly unusable. It does not track my CMEs, it loses my place on the most recently listened to episode, it doesn't load the title of the episode I'm currently listening to. Furthermore, the organization of the episodes is such that you can only listen as they come out. The back-catalog is so poorly organized that if you want to listen to episodes only dealing with cardiology, you can try to do that, but without much success.

I've tried to use it for ERCast over the last several months with android 11 and 12, and it's abysmally slow and basically unusable. Various bugs I've encountered after trying to use it for a couple hours: it randomly stops playing episodes and then will restart from the beginning; it sometimes uses cell data to play already downloaded episodes; play/pause and other buttons frequently won't work unless clicked multiple times. Just an awful app, it's too bad that I can't just use one of the many available podcast apps that actually work.
