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.

    I don't see any significant lag like other users. Addition of NICE flowcharts would be nice.

    Application fails to load properly unable to download the documents. What a contrast to SIGN App which works perfectly

    Doesn't do anything on the Samsung Galaxy S2. Perform a search and it constantly says, 'searching...' but then doesn't return any results. Very poor :-(

    Good idea, good content but been ported from iPhone app. Screen, keyboard and scrolling and buttons all unresponsive. Annoying. Please build for android

    Worst thing about this app is that it is not Android native, making it slow and unstable. The content isn't as good as the PDF on the website. Try "Nice Guidelines" app, it's less nonsense and has access to the actual PDFs! (complete with diagrams)
