Coming in 1.0.6
The next MTN Field Guide update is being prepared for App Review. The features and native simulator screenshots below preview 1.0.6; the currently downloadable App Store version may differ.
Better notes. More ways to prepare.
A redesigned SOAP workflow, exportable incident reports and a daily wilderness medicine question lead this update.
Redesigned SOAP
Document in standard SOAP format with AVPU mental status, skin observations and multiple photos. Save up to five encrypted notes locally. Each note supports one GPS snapshot and up to ten photos. Device authentication protects access. Export a PDF when needed.
Exportable incident reports
Bring together events, actions, outcomes, corrective actions, witness statements and drawn signatures. Add optional scene locations, labeled coordinates, elevation and photos, then export a PDF. Drawn signatures do not verify identity; an approximate scene layout is not a navigation map or rescue dispatch.
Question of the day
Answer a daily wilderness medicine question and review its explanation. Optional reminders are scheduled on your phone. Explore learning modules, quizzes, flashcards and scenarios in Student Center. Learning history stays on your device; study tools do not award certification.
Start with a plan
Use Before the trip to review weather, activity and risk, group readiness, responsibilities, leadership, communications, useful numbers and local resources. Add up to ten map/scene photos and five PDF, DOCX, TXT or GPX documents, up to 5 MB each. Export a plan PDF or a ZIP containing the plan and original documents.
Find the right topic
Search 109 field-reference entries by symptom, injury, title or acronym. Move between signs, treatment, evacuation guidance and related topics. Bookmark useful entries. Bundled photos and diagrams work offline; open them directly and pinch to zoom.
Useful field tools
Keep assessment prompts, checklists, scales, acronyms, timers, a 110 BPM CPR metronome and rescue-request documentation aids close at hand.
Feedback and content recommendations
Use general feedback and guide-specific content-recommendation forms to report issues or suggest guide changes. The app prepares a message for you to review and send in your email app. This is separate from the hosted training/instructor forms. Do not include patient information.
Local tools. Deliberate sharing.
Core reference, bundled visuals and study material work offline without an account. SOAP notes are encrypted locally; there is no MTN patient-data backend or cloud synchronization. MTN cannot recover unavailable notes.
Trip, incident and location forms are session-only. Export before leaving to keep a copy. PDF and ZIP exports are unencrypted; the destination you choose can retain its own copies. Use an authorized privacy and retention workflow.
Online training and instructor forms use the MTN website and its processing practices. No SOAP note, scene photo or captured location is attached automatically. MTN retains enquiries, credentials and associated email copies indefinitely to communicate with and respond to app users, and honors deletion requests. Do not include patient information.
The next step is hands-on
Train your group: tell MTN about your team, location and training needs.
Teach WFA / WFR: share your background and explore the instructor pathway. Applying does not authorize teaching.
Important use information
Use this guide alongside hands-on training. It does not replace professional medical care, local protocols, medical direction or emergency services. Follow your training and authorization.
The app does not diagnose a patient, calculate medication doses, decide evacuation priority or contact rescuers for you. In an emergency, use the available emergency or rescue channel promptly.
MTN synthesizes published guidance. No physician medical-director approval is claimed. Check the relevant guide, sources and precautions before using an instruction.
Use patient notes, photographs, GPS and exports only within an authorized privacy and security workflow. Review the destination before sharing.
This app may contain errors or incomplete content. Verify clinical content before operational use. Patient care decisions remain the responsibility of trained responders operating under applicable laws, agency policy, and medical direction.
The app presents its intended-use notice and requires acknowledgment from new users. This website does not record that in-app choice.
Designed to Support Training
The MTN Field Guide is designed to complement—not replace—professional education. Training develops judgment. Experience develops confidence. The app provides practical tools that help reinforce concepts learned through hands-on instruction and real-world field experience. For that reason, every feature is built around the same educational philosophy that guides MTN courses: Practical. Evidence-informed. Operationally relevant.
