Pros and cons of ESC Pocket Guidelines app for iPhone and iPad

ESC Pocket Guidelines app good for

The new version only downloads the guidelines if you uninstall the old one first.
This is an essential application, that every cardiologist must have. Very usefull indeed.
A fantastic tool for your clinical practice in and out hospital

Some bad moments

Says that "make sure that you are connected to the internet.." while my internet connection is on..
App must be fixed, is too slow and guidelines are disappeared.
Thank you for this useful app. Finally you did it! The only drawback is that app is somewhat slow and buggy. Also, it would be nice if it contained new 2013 guidelines (stable angina)
For the last 1 year, the app is not working. It crashes every time I open it. When will you fix it??
Cant download the guidelines-guidelines dont appear in the downloaded folder even after I download the guidelines. Expected more from ESC!!!
