Greedy app developers
Greedy app devs want to be paid for algo that is free on AHA website, marks app as “free” but after you download there’s a monthly fee. Deceptive and very bad form considering the purpose of the content.
Description
The AHA ACLS app is the American Heart Association's (AHA) officially endorsed digital health solution to assist clinicians in running codes and delivering bedside ACLS care with actual patients. The app was developed by Harvard-trained physicians, in collaboration with the AHA, to help fellow physicians, nurses, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and emergency medical technicians (EMT) deliver the highest level of advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) at the point-of-care. It began as a project to assist clinicians within Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), a Harvard Medical School teaching hospital—and then expanded to have a global scope after significant positive impact was demonstrated. Importantly, real-time feedback from our clinician users continuously drives improvements in app design, features, and function so that you will have the best experience providing life-saving care at the bedside.
The AHA ACLS app is the only one to have all content vetted by both the AHA science team and practicing Harvard-affiliated physicians. It also features the latest 2020 release of AHA recommendations for ACLS.
We owe it to our patients to use the best digital health tools to give them the highest chance of surviving acute life-threatening cardiac illnesses. To this end, we have developed a low cost, intuitive, and rigorously vetted mobile app to assist clinicians— including in all stages of training—and enhance ACLS care at the bedside.
Features:
- Intuitive design to rapidly access 4 ACLS algorithms (i.e. cardiac arrest, tachycardia with pulse, bradycardia with pulse, and post cardiac arrest care)
- Includes all ACLS content including drug therapy and dosing, reversible causes, etc.
- Easy-to-read timers and ability to log rounds of CPR, epinephrine, and defibrillations
- Button within cardiac arrest algorithm that allows for rapid transition to post cardiac arrest care pathway once patient achieves ROSC
- All content rigorously vetted by AHA science team and practicing Harvard-affiliated physicians
- Regularly updated with the most up-to-date ACLS content
We continue to iterate based on real-time clinician feedback, so that you will have the best experience providing life-saving care at the bedside.
AHA ACLS offers an auto-renewing annual subscription at $2.99/year with a 3-day free trial. You will have unlimited access to all content while you maintain an active subscription.
Payment will be charged to the credit card connected to your Apple ID Account when you confirm the initial subscription purchase. Subscriptions automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24-hours before the end of the current subscription period. Your account will be charged for renewal within 24-hours prior to the end of the current period. You may manage your subscription and auto-renewal may be turned off by going to your Account Settings after the purchase. Any unused portion of the free trial period, if offered, will be forfeited when you purchase a subscription.

It’s a great app, but…
I used this app some time ago when it was free. Great app, very useful. Is very unfortunate that it is no longer free. I can appreciate the need to now charge a nominal fee, however I have several issues with the implementation. 1) A basic version should be free. As it stands the app is completely unusable outside the 3 day trial without a subscription. At least make the ACLS cards free in the app without nagging prompts for subscriptions. This is an invaluable resource in low resource settings, and charging a fee to access the basic information removes a critical resource. 2) A subscription service is just tacky. When I pay for something, I expect to own it - not the case with a software subscription. I realize SAAS is all the rage right now, but it’s really better to stick with a purchase model. I happily bought the ASCCP app and the subsequently updated version for $9.99 each, but I would never consider a yearly subscription to the same app. Just charge a one-time fee (or a nominal purchase fee and then charge for an upgrade) just like any good software for the last 40 years. 3) You went the subscription route and didn’t enable family sharing. This is the real insult here. Not only did you start charging for a free app. Not only did you decide to charge a subscription rather than let me purchase it. You INTENTIONALLY decided to not let members of the same household share the subscription. Absolutely ridiculous, and a great example of the greed present in corporate medicine today (even in orgs that claim to be nonprofit).
🛑 NOT FREE ANYMORE 🛑
Make it a one time fee instead of taking a “SMALL” amount from millions of people!
Fantastic when it was free
It was great…before they started charging. Takes some of our ACLS/BLS course fees to keep the app free.
??
Of all the ways to make a buck in medicine you’re really going to charge money for a simple app that tracks codes? Was advised to download this when I started residency and recently pulled it out on the way to a code, and got prompted to put in my credit card info. Sick.
Trusted and improves care
A small price to pay for excellence in healthcare delivery.
Not worth it.
Garbage to have to pay money for this. This stuff is online.
If you pay for ACLS, AHA should provide this for free
All hospital physicians must be ACLS certified through AHA and the training $$ received from mandatory trainings should go towards funding and maintaining the app. Especially since AHA celebrates $1 billion in revenue in 2021 (largely from donations) and CEO takes home $2.5 million/year. I think an AHA sponsored ACLS app doesn’t seem that big of a stretch…
Subscription based model is a bad option
It’s a very useful app that I used for multiple codes, but now that it’s a subscription based model I am no longer using it. I’ve seen the developers responses that they no longer have funding from their generous philanthropist, which is unfortunate, but it is also unfortunate to be monetizing off sick coding patients who would benefit from their doctors having a useful clinical tool like this. It is only 2.99 a year and I’d probably be more willing to pay for it after I’m no longer a resident - but I’d also suggest that they consider making it a one time payment of $10 or something rather than an endless recurring subscription based fee. For some reason that feels like it would be an easier pill to swallow than a never ending fee that is continually extracting money without you knowing (seems kind of like a parasitic relationship when it could instead be a one time, one and done transaction).
MONEY MONEY MONEY!!!
So I get it! You go from a free app to PAYWALL????? No simulators for me UNFORTUNATELY!!! I have been desperate to find a defibrillator app to use where I can simulate rhythms, and have a realistic monitor defibrillator interface. NOT HAPPENING!! This is a surprise cost, you will not see until you dig into the apps. What a COMPLETE SHAME! I wish I would have known about these simulators BEFORE THEY DID THIS!! It’s been said in another rating that the five star ratings are FAKE!! I get it! You scam The living daylights out of us and make these apps look wonderful and FREE, only for us to find the REAL TRUTH! You’re not getting a DIME, from me!
