Review of the POP-Q Pelvic Organ Prolapse assessment app
Conclusions:

The POP-Q Pelvic Organ Prolapse Interactive Assessment Tool medical app provides a useful assessment tool reminder for healthcare providers using the POP-Q to assess for pelvic organ prolapse. It is most useful to providers who do not use the exam on a daily basis, but provides useful images that could be used on a daily basis.

This is tool I would love to have my trainees use along with me as I do the exam in order to record the results of the exam and provide some useful learning for them and the patient. It does have some proprietary caveats (such as a reference to BARDs mesh, while ignoring the use of pessaries) that potentially detract, but they are placed in such a way that they are not obtrusive.

As of publish, the app is not available on the Android platform. iMedicalApps

The best Pregnancy OB wheel medical app
Conclusions:

The Wheel SP medical app does a great job at compacting almost all of The Wheel HD’s features into the constraints of an iPhone app.

I plan on using this as my primary obstetric/pregnancy wheel because of the ability to make standard OB wheel calculations, as well as calculate the EFW by GA and by biometric measurements.

As of date of publish, there is no Android version available. iMedicalApps
