The reference app
Great on the floor. But it stops at the bedside — it won't prepare you for the exam that stands between you and the badge.
Clinical reference · NCLEX-style practice
The clinical reference you'll
keep after
the boards.
NURDE is a clinical reference and NCLEX-style study app for nurses — 1,300+ educational reference cards and 1,500+ practice questions in one app you can carry from nursing school to night shift.
Coming soon to iOS and Android
1,300+Reference cards
1,500+Practice questions
25+Clinical categories
140+Teaching tools
Why one app
One job, split across two apps.
A reference tells you what's happening on shift. A question bank gets you through the boards. Most nurses pay for both, study on both, and carry both. NURDE puts them in one place — so you learn something once and keep it.
The question bank
Great for the boards. But once you pass, it goes quiet — it was never built for the questions you get on shift.
NURDE is both, in one app.
Reference for the shift, NCLEX-style practice for the boards — the same app from your first clinical to your first job.
See how it's organized
Specialty, tab, and urgency — the way nursing actually works.
Every reference card lives under a specialty and a tab, with a colour-coded urgency badge so the important things read first. Tap through a preview of the navigation — pick a folder, switch tabs, and see how cards are laid out.

Reference
A reference organized the way nursing works.
Folders by specialty, tabs within each, urgency on every card. It's built for the shift where you've got one hand free and no time to dig — for study and quick lookup, not a textbook you have to read cover to cover.
- 1,300+ educational reference cards across 25+ clinical categories.
- 140+ interactive teaching tools — Lab Interpreter, IV compatibility checker, drip calculators, and scoring guides like GCS, NIHSS, Braden, and HIT.
- Two reading views: a full Study view and a Quick view for fast recall.
- Favourites and private notes that stay on your device.
- Loads without a connection after you sign in once on the app.
NCLEX-style practice
Practice that mirrors the real exam formats.
Practice the way the boards actually ask — including the Next-Gen formats, not just multiple choice. Every item comes with a written rationale, so you learn the reasoning, not just the answer.
- 1,500+ NCLEX-style questions, each with a written rationale.
- Next-Gen formats — matrix, bow-tie, cloze, and highlight — plus multiple-choice, select-all, and ordering.
- Partial-credit scoring on Next-Gen items, the way the exam scores them.

Honest by default
What NURDE is — and what it isn't.
Works without a connection after first sign-in
The first time, you'll create a free account and verify your email — that part needs a connection. After that, the installed iOS or Android app opens your reference library and practice questions without one.
Zero patient data
NURDE never collects PHI. Your notes and favourites stay on your device; only your study progress syncs to your free account.
A study and reference tool
NURDE is for study and quick lookup — not a clinical authority. Always confirm against your facility's current, authoritative resources before acting on any information.
