more The best case tracker that I've found out there. It's affordable, synchronizes well across my devices and has a lot of customization available. There are a few little annoyances, but because I can't tell if they're just user error instead of actual design issues, I won't bother mentioning them. If you're looking for an inexpensive and user friendly case logging app, this seems to fit the bill.
Developer Response Thank you for the great review, I appreciate it... however, please get in touch with the little annoyances because the only way I know what annoys my users *specifically* is if they let me know!You can email me directly in the app via Settings -> Help & Support -> Email Support We can see if what annoys you is a bug or just something I've not implemented very well!Cheers, Paul

After years of fruitless searching, someone has finally developed a worthwhile app for tracking anesthesia cases. The setup is simple and the use is intuitive. Export a slick case report for credentialing? No problem! This app has saved me hours of formulating the data for tracking case averages. I give it my highest recommendation!
Developer Response Thank you so much for the wonderful review, I really appreciate it. Let me know if I can do anything to improve things 🤓 Kind regards, Paul

I’ve been using your app for the past 5 years now and highly recommend it to my Nurse Anesthetist colleagues. To only question I have is downloading case logs from a selected time period. Can you tell me how I can download just the last year of case logs instead of the past 5 years of case?
Developer Response Hi Robert! Thank you very much for the lovely review, I really appreciate it!The easiest way to download a specific day, week, month or year of cases is to select that range on the Dashboard, then either view the Cases by tapping on that line in the section below the Case Cards OR simply tap the export/share button. It will export all those cases for you in one file.You can also create a Search on the All Data screen to specify a precise date range, as well as add other search terms to filter your cases.Get in touch by email if you need further help and I’ll reply as soon as I can. Kind regards, Paul.

… and I like it. Occasional crashes when reopening a case from that day that has already been saved. Some random crashes. Happy I bought it. Please keep on the bug fixes. Thanks!
Developer Response Thank you for the review and feedback, I really appreciate it. If you have time and you find some crashes are easy to reproduce, please get in touch with me via the email in the app and I’ll help get to the bottom of it. Some crashes are sometimes out of my control but most of them (even if rare) are probably my fault! 😬Thanks again. 🙂

• Added a Supervision Level Chart on the All Data & Case List screens
• Added 'Start/Restart Timer & Keep Start Time' to Timer Button context menu on Case Cards
• On the BMI Chart, the context menu will allow you to correct any Cases that should have BMIs but don't
FIXES
• When removing the last Comorbidity from a Case Card for a patient with multiple cases, and you elect to not update their other cases, the current case ASA would not change to 1 - FIXED
• When editing a Case, changing the Patient from Specific to Generic and back again, would still show the previous Patient info - FIXED
• Exported Patient lists in CSV format, which included Personal List items, would result in a column shift error - FIXED
• Tapping on a Specialty would show Cases for all Specialties instead of the one tapped - FIXED
• When deleting a Trainee, Cases containing only that Trainee would still have a Supervision Level set - FIXED
• BMI Charts would occasionally cause an app crash when scrolled into view - FIXED
• When searching a list of Operations, the prompt/subtitle had excess padding - FIXED

10.4 Apr 24
Unless there are some critical bugs to fix, this will be the final update for the year from me. Thanks for the support. Paul.
NEW
• Added a 'Revert' button to selection lists
- It only appears if you have made selection changes and tapping it will reset to the original selection
- If no changes have been made you can also swipe to get rid of the list quickly, other wise this will be blocked
• Added a floating date range when searching lists bound by a date range on iPhone
- When searching the search bar would obscure this so it wasn't obvious what dates were already being filtered.
FIXES
• Fixes a bug introduced in 10.3.1 where creating a new operation when adding to a case would fail to save the case and subsequent cases until a restart of Somnus
- This was caused by a mismatch between the new operation and its specialty, due to them being in different contexts/threads.
- To protect the database, the app prevents further saves until the fault is cleared (by a restart)
• The Add Patient screen didn't appear when first attempting without a passcode and you had set a passcode - FIXED
• Changes to Patient Notes made via Case Card context menus didn't show immediately in the 'Preview View' for the Patient section - FIXED

- eg. Comorbidities, Personal List Items, Item Numbers, Specialties, Patients and More!
- Existing items of the same name will be updated depending on what has changed, although notes will be updated only if previously empty
- This is a useful way to quickly update notes for a list of items (eg. Medications or Drugs)
- New items will be automatically created
- Some items have additional column options (eg. Operations for Specialties, Latitude/Longitude & Provider Number for Locations)
- This makes batch importing/updating very efficient as you can create your data in Numbers/Excel or use ChatGPT to generate your lists complete with notes
- File structure information available on the Somnus website
• Export any items to a CSV file
- Export any item category list as a CSV file (excluding photos/images, Case Templates & Searches)

• When viewing all Personal Lists, searching will show individual list items as well
• When moving a personal list item to another list, you will now be warned if a list item exists with the same name
• More advanced 'View Personal Lists' screen with dynamic charts & ability to filter by date range
• Renamed 'Spreadsheet' to 'Case List' for clarity when referring to Spreadsheet (CSV) exports
• When creating a new Item Number it would accept one with no number, group or sub-group - FIXED
• Training Years Chart would not appear on the All Data screen - FIXED
10.3 11/21/2025
• Minor UI adjustments
10.2.4 11/08/2025
FIXES

NEW

• Improvements to label scanner name & number detection algorithm
• What's New will now only show for major x.x updates

• 1 November, 2025 RVG for Australian Users
- Please note: don't update until it's technically 'current' to prevent premature item number changes, if any

FIXES
• Index buttons for Item Number list views were not truncated
• 'Update other cases' ID labels' only shown if there is more than one case for that Identifier
• When adding a new Operation or Surgeon inside a Specialty, it will add them to that Specialty instead of asking to choose one
• Title bar text prompts were sometimes inconsistent
• Rounder corners for many elements to fit with Apple's 'concentricity' aesthetic
10.1.16 09/25/2025
• Fixed an issue where cases imported from CSV files without a "Time of Day" column were left blank - existing affected cases are automatically repaired on first launch
• Billing report totals now count only the billable operation, with non-billed items clearly marked with a dash
• Paediatric ages no longer round up on Widgets (a child of 6 years 10 months now shows as 6y, not 7y)
• The date-range help button in All Data now opens the correct help page
