Pros and cons of ECGsource app for iPhone and iPad

ECGsource app good for

A convenient app that puts ECG definitions and criteria at your fingertips for easy access. Great app for all--med students to fellows alike!
More thorough than any other ECG app currently on the market. Will refresh your memory of any important clinical conditions that could show up on an ECG.
Without question, the most useful study guide available online. Up to date and easy to navigate.
Great cardiology resource for your pocket. Web product is also great for board review.
Great review of ECGs, with great examples! Great resource for students, physicians, cardiologists and for boards!! A must have!!
Recommend highly. Also recommend "cath source" for anybody involved in cath lab.

Some bad moments

Waste of money. Quiz only contains 5 ECGs. Good information but nothing I need in an app.
I am an experienced paramedic and ALS instructor. I picked up this program hoping to expand my library of ekg strips for when i teach as some are difficult to come by even on a generator. However i find the ecg notes are pretty good. Ut the actual ecg strips are unimpressive and not very typical in appearance for what they are meant to describe. The creator of the program fails to realize that just because a strip meets the technical diagnosis doesnt mean it is good example to show everyone else. Therefore i am disappointed but thankful it didnt cost much.
