NephroCalc
Read full descriptionHide full description
Built by a nephrology fellow navigating the daily grind of rounds, consults, and ICU calls. During training, I found myself constantly reaching for calculators to work through electrolyte corrections, acid-base disorders, and GFR estimates. This app is my answer to that: a single, streamlined tool with the formulas I actually use, organized the way I think about them. Whether you're calculating free water deficit at 2 AM or double-checking an anion gap on rounds, KidneyCalc aims to be the fastest path from question to answer. It's designed by someone doing the work, for others doing the work.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: NephroCalc at none against Antibiotics Simplified Guide's 1. NephroCalc also leads on ads (none vs shown). Antibiotics Simplified Guide's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
