Descripción

Eponyms brings a short description of about 1800 common and obscure medical eponyms (e.g., Rovsing's sign, Virchow's node) to your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. A perfect tool to quickly look up the meaning of any eponym.

It uses the beautiful eponym database from Andrew J. Yee (http://www.eponyms.net/).

## Features

• About 1800 eponyms
• Full text search
• Browse by any of the 26 categories
• Star eponyms to keep track of the eponyms you tend to forget or which you know are favorites of your professor
• List of recently accessed eponyms
• Quick and easy learn mode

## Learn Mode

The learn mode allows you to:

• swipe to the left to show a random eponym but not its title
• swipe to the right to show a random eponym title but not its text
• pull down to reveal the hidden info

Learn mode displays eponyms from the category you're currently visiting. This means you can either learn eponyms from a given category, only the ones that you've starred or simply all of them.

## Non-students:

This is the free student version. Please only download the free version while you (still) are a student. Look for the regular version if you're a professional now.

Some suggestions

It is a good app but can be better.

Would be nice to have a small, not very intrusive notification or widget where one can choose to see the number of daily random eponyms (just like some vocabulary apps do).

It is also good that the app is minimalist (not sure if on purpose) and yes, I know it is a google search away, but perhaps it would be a better learning tool if there were some drawings, images etc. (where aplicable) or maybe the possibility to make such a search directly in the app.

This being said, thank for the work behind this app.
