Mobile eLogbook
* From the developers of the successful Mobile eLogbook iPhone app******
*
Mobile eLogbook has been designed in co-operation with the elogbook.org FHI Pan-Surgical Electronic Logbook to facilitate completion of your logbook.
Once you have entered your elogbook.org login credentials, the app will synchronise with the individual account. All operation and hospital codes, your favourite procedures, consultants and hospitals will be retrieved for use with the app to record all the necessary information in a format that will be instantly recognisable from the elogbook.org webpages.
Offline data entry
You do not require a Wi-Fi or 3G connection to enter data in to the app. Ideal for environments with poor network signals. A Wi-Fi/3G connection is only required at the time of upload.
Upload functionality
The Mobile eLogbook app is only intended to allow uploading data to your elogbook account. This is deliberate to prevent the data protection issues that would occur from downloading patient data to a personal device.
In order to upload operations to the elogbook system you will need to subscribe to the upload functionality. When you initially successfully validate your elogbook username and password you will receive a free 28 day trial subscription. Once this expires you will need to purchase a subscription to continue to upload
- this can be performed simply within the app. A purchased subscription is valid for one year and costs £5.99. Please see the FAQ page on our website for more details about this.
Once procedures have been successfully uploaded, they will be deleted from the app. No patient identifiable information will be retained on your device. We recommend uploading data immediately or as soon as a network 3G/Wi-Fi signal is available. If upload is interrupted due to signal loss for example, data not yet uploaded will be retained until a successful upload is achieved.
Supported specialities
The following specialties are currently supported, including specialty specific fields, e.g. laparoscopic, 30 day mortality, sub-division of roles within procedures etc
Cardiothoracic SurgeryGeneral SurgeryNeurosurgeryOral and Maxillofacial SurgeryOtolaryngologyPaediatric SurgeryPlastic SurgeryTrauma and Orthopaedic SurgeryUrology
Operation and hospital codes
Upon first use, the app will automatically download all operation and hospital codes from the elogbook.org website. As the elogbook.org evolves, changes will be available automatically. Simply “Check for data updates” from within the app settings.
Favourites and search
The app will automatically download your favourite operations, hospital and consultants. You can also search through the full lists of operations and hospitals. Only consultants listed within your elogbook.org account will be downloaded. Any changes to favourites must be performed using the college website. They will then be available to download within the app settings.
Simplifying data recording
The following features are available to simplify data entry:
- "Save and add another for same patient" when entering a record
- Duplication of an existing record (a long press on an existing record in the main view)
- Age entry via either age or date of birth
- Default hospital
- Default consultant
- Default country
- Default operation date (today or last used)
Security and encryption
Mobile eLogbook is protected by an encrypted PIN
Data is uploaded to the elogbook.org servers over a secure HTTPS connection (the same encryption that is used when logging in to the elogbook.org website)

It was working fine until it came to pay for a subscription. However, it's not registering my payment of £10 despite Google play acknowledging it. Email sent. If they get in touch and sort this out I'll change my rating. Very inconvenient.
since updated phone (samsung note 10+) I can no longer use app- supervisor field opens but is not possible to input anything into- can not save anymore surgery. Useless now. Sent an email to developer as I used to find the app great. No word back over past 10 days.
I think there is no more support for android version. The iOS version is up to the mark and is flawless. Its too complicated for android one. Sometimes i am stuck at the pin area only. Please update it up to the mark.
Used to be a great app - as others have said, the subscription does now not update, I cannot use the app despite having paid my subscription. Emailed the helpdesk several times with no response as yet. Have had to unfortunately cancel subscription.
Android device. Subscription paid twice this year and still can't upload. Tried to contact the developer twice but no response. After good years I have to end my subscription.
App no longer functions since I upgraded my phone (android OS). Im now unable to add any of the operation details which seems to be a common problem!
Having same problem as below. Have logged lots of operating now unable to upload due to difficulties with it saying my subscription is expired and google has the subscription. Don't want to loose all my operations. Please help. I have sent 3 x emails to help desk.
previously used to great success. however recently have noticed that some entries are failing to be uploaded. furthermore it now states that my subscription has expired, despite google confirming my subscription is active.
On reviewing comments I wonder, do I benefit from subscription, trial period successfully uploads. Awaiting reply from support Support responded, subscription done and application working. The app work for 1 year without problems then after renewal of subscription it stopped working.
I'm subscribed but saying it's expired. Google says subscribed till May 21. App says It's expired May 20. Problem is that the app says I'm subscribed till May too when I try to subscribe anew... Please fix.
Unable to upload on samsung S10 despite active subscription. Useless. Made a mistake.
telling my subscription has expired so not allowing any uploads. google tells me I have an active subscription. website not working.
Stopped working, despite charging me twice for the same app. The developers are unreachable to resolve this.
Unable to add operations keeps going back to login page
like others, no longer working despite active subscription. Even when working app was basic and outdated.
Very bad support , app denies my subscription , I had to re-upload my operations by my self on the website because the app is not working , admins do not answer .
Android version is not upto date. It has so many flaws compared to iOS .
Subscription won't update similar to those below have paid yrly subscription hut says expired and won't download new subscription
Very very poor IT support, really disappointed
It's great! But how do you reset the pin!
I paid my subscription and it doesn't allow me to login... I need my money back...
ot is not working
Can't login.first time user
The app stopped working almost 2 years ago. I emailed the developers multiple times and have not received a reply. I have been charged for 2 annual subscriptions for an unusable app. Very disappointing.
Currently unusable. As many other users, selecting "operation" or other fields leads to empty grey box. S9 plus, up-to-date OS.
Doesn't work with s8 plus
Not working on Samsung S3 neo
Quick and user friendly
How do you cancel the subscription?
I would love to know why we are being asked to pay a subscription fee, which has been increased, for an app, which is the only one compatible with eLogbook, that has not been updated since 2017, and has such limited functionality with parts that (still) don't work. Where does the £10 you collect from thousands go? Would be nice for some response to the the terrible review, and some involvement by Google for the ridiculously poor quality of this app that its users have to pay for...
