Answer questions almost anywhere with the MOCA-Peds mobile app!

MOCA-Peds is an online, nonproctored assessment of and for learning.

Disclosure
[+] The American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) certifies pediatricians and pediatric subspecialists and evaluates their medical knowledge on an ongoing basis. The ABP’s mobile app and content includes medical descriptions and images of child anatomy, some including g******s, in order to educate and assess the medical knowledge of pediatricians and pediatric subspecialists. In some cases, there may be images of genital injury; however, none of these medically based images are sexual in nature and none depict actual abuse of children.
Good interface overall, but still gets stuck for a while on questions screens or freezes entirely nearly every time I use it. Also has been glitchy in terms of FaceID on the iPhone. The app minimizes or closes when I try to use FaceID most of the time. Hard to understand why it’s still this bad a few years into MOCA-Peds.

Most of us use keyboards that place our iPads horizontally. This app can only used in portrait mode, which I suppose is fine if you’re walking around holding your device like a newspaper. The rest of us work at a desk where tapping is far easier in landscape. With all the dough flung into registering for this, one would think an app could function in both views. Oh well, it’s back to the website, I suppose…..
Re-install if not working

This is definitely not the most user friendly app. For those having trouble logging in: every time the app updates it seems you have to delete it and then download it anew to get it to work. Hope this helps those that are stuck!
New upgrade not working on my iPad

Just downloaded the new upgrade on my iPad. When I login I get a pop-up box that says “moca peds” with a blue “OK” button beneath it. when I push OKIt goes back to the login screen and I am not able to log on. Hope this can be fixed. I’ve completed almost 2 years of tests and like using the app.
