Amazing resource

If looking to provide best evidence for your patients’s care and for a safer professional practice, this tool is an amazing resource

Phenomenal tool that’s rapidly being diluted

Core LLM model is fantastic. The App though is continuously adding bloat (ie. Games, Dialer, Fax, Inbox), it’s practically Doximity at this point.

By all means develop these features, but there’s no reason my research app should have Games and a Dialer — spin this off in a new app. Dialer, Visits, Scribe, Messages, Inbox all make sense in their own app separated from Discover/Articles/News and Ask.

UpToDate doesn’t have all this junk lumped in. The App is getting larger and slower, it’s forgetting why it exists. Sad to see the development team is going down this route.

The Best

Open Evidence is the most practical evidence based search site for clinical practice. It gives me management points with evidence that I can directly implement in patient care. I have found it to be more to the point & easier to use than Up To Date. Simply, the best so far for evidence based clinical practice.

“Not available in your location” but just for me

Would’ve been 5 stars, but I keep getting hit with a “not available in your location” despite desktop working fine, and others being able to use the mobile app in the same area as me. Unusable until fixed unfortunately.
