Apart from proving many other functions, your phone can now be your e-doctor as well, thanks to a new free iPhone app.
The new free app developed at the University of Michigan Health System allows users to use their phone's camera to check for early signs of skin cancer. It works by creating a photographic baseline of their skin.
Called UMSkinCheck, it even sends automatic reminders so users can monitor changes to a skin lesion over time.The app also provides pictures of various types of skin cancers for comparisons.
