Medical apps for Droid (Google Android)

Saturday, November 14, 2009


People are now looking for medical apps for Droid (Google Android smartphone on Verizon Wireless). What have you found out there?

Currently, the options are somewhat limited, but new medical apps are popping up all the time. Let's take a look at some of the most popular ones:
  • Epocrates has not released software for Android yet. However, you can use your mobile web browser and access drug info at m.epocrates.com
  • Unbound Medicine has medical references, textbooks, and other resources for Android.
  • Skyscape also has medical references, textbooks, and other resources for Android.
  • MobilePDR is coming soon for Android
  • UpToDate can be accessed via any mobile web browser
Well, this is just the beginning. It won't be long before we see a robust selection of medical apps for Google Android.
