    Hey everyone,

    For all those health science and medical students out there who love the popular app Epocrates, I shot them an email yesterday to see if they will be bringing an app to BlackBerry 10....

    Basically, as long as there is good demand for it, I feel it will get made native. They have forwarded the email to their development team!

    Let's fire some more emails to them everyone! And let's support BlackBerry 10 and get more native apps!

    This would be huge! I will shoot an email their way as well. I don't use it but BlackBerry needs more native Medical focused apps to bring back doctors, hospitals, and med students back to BlackBerry. I've been writing to several companies who make intuative iOS medical apps about possibly coming to BlackBerry 10.

    Thanks.

    Just emailed [email protected] with the following:

    "HI,
    Long term Epocrates User here……. first on Palm…… then on Blackberry Torch……….
    Now, after my Torch went ‘swimming’, I’ve upgraded to a Blackberry Z10…..

    As a rural/remote GP, I use E-Pocrates almost daily.

    Have you plans to adapt the product for the BB 10 software?"

    Let's get on them! Use the e-mail that they have for your contact.

    Was "Sideloaded" simply a matter of browsing with your z10 and downloading/installing? Did you have a paid version and account with e-pocrates? Thanks

    I went ahead and sent an email to them. My wife is a physician and really likes my BB Z10, but does not want to move to it without epocrates.

    That looks like a form letter.

    I wouldn't get my hopes up.
    If you want it SIde Load it. Its not hard. And you probably won't even know it's an android app

    Side is easy and even easier after you done the setup the first time

    Download the chrome extention
    Download the bar file
    Put your device in development mode
    Drag the bar into chrome

    NASMUN, how did you sideload the Epocrates?

    I sideloaded using bb10bars and it does not work - every time I try to open it the BB World opens and displays "pname:com.epocrates No Results Found". Very frustrating...

    I was able to sideload Epocrates and it works great. I also tried Medscape - it loaded fine but the databases wouldn't work. But at least Epocrates seems to work flawlessly!

    Side loading works just fine. I have a free account and an old bar.
    No problem at all.

    Same problem, it keeps launching BlackBerry World and searching for Epocrates now, was working well before it updated.

    If anyone knows of a fix it would be great

    The old bar is missing tons of features compared to the true updated version on my ipod.
