Global healthcare information provider Wolters Kluwer Health has announced the release of significant enhancements to its UpToDate® App for the Android™ mobile platform. The new release delivers an upgraded experience for users worldwide who access the evidence-based clinical decision support resource via the award-winning UpToDate mobile app on their Android smartphones and tablets.
The Android App release delivers richer content, with access to a wide range of UpToDate videos, as well as streamlined searching using "Find in Topic" and filtering options to quickly find topics through bookmarks and history. It also offers faster automatic content updates over Wi-Fi for UpToDate MobileComplete™, which provides users with full access to UpToDate even without a network connection.
Of particular interest to global Android users is the addition of Search in Your Own Language, a customisable suite of search and navigation tools that enables them to research clinical questions in their native language. This unique feature streamlines searches for clinical information and graded recommendations by leveraging an advanced, patent-pending translation system for search terms in Simplified and Traditional Chinese, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Japanese and English. An intuitive auto-complete feature also predicts words or phrases in a clinician's native language.
According to Gartner, the Android operating system continues to dominate the global marketplace with a 78.4 percent share of the smartphone market. The new UpToDate for Android app release is available free on Google Play, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.uptodate.android and on the Amazon Appstore for Android, http://amzn.com/B00A4LX7R8.
