For the first time, you can access guidance from NICE whilst on the move through NICE’s new, official app. It is aimed at doctors, nurses, medical students and other healthcare professionals, as well as those with public health responsibilities, including in local government.
It is the first ever app to contain public health guidance, including topics such as smoking cessation, promoting physical activity, behaviour change and preventing diabetes. It contains all of NICE’s clinical guidelines, including those on COPD, hypertension, stroke, chronic heart failure, atrial fibrillation, head injury, depression, ovarian cancer, UTI in children, anxiety and autism. It also contains all NICE’s technology appraisals, interventional procedures guidance, medical technology and diagnostics guidance.

Downloading the content is a challenge and installing the app delays
★★★★★
Broke on ice
★★☆☆☆
The database keeps getting corrupted after update. Random guidelines appear instead of selected ones. This render this marvellous app useless.
★★☆☆☆
Used to be good now unusable. None of the hyperlinks work. Some guidance headers are pointing to the wrong content but worst of all it is now impossible to scroll the guidance...
★★☆☆☆
Links are all mixed up. Scrolling v slow. Unusable. V frustrating
★★☆☆☆
Scrolling doesn't work! Fix this please! Have to scroll one line at a time with each finger swipe. Makes the app unusable
