About this app

Spok Mobile™ is a critical messaging/alerting application for use in healthcare, government, and public safety environments. Requires a subscription /connection to a supported Spok system.

Spok Mobile simplifies communications and strengthens care by using smartphones for your hospital’s secure, critical communications: code alerts, patient updates, test results, consult requests, and more.

This intuitive application links to a powerful communication system where you can send messages/attachments to smartphones and other devices.

Users require all file access permission to upload the attachments in the app to share them with the hospital staff. The file upload feature is one of the most critical features of the app as users need to share key information like images, code alerts, patient updates, test results, consult requests, etc.

Ratings and reviews

Constantly crashing. Drains my battery. Sometimes I don't get messages until I open the app. When messages come through, it always switches my ringtone setting from vibrate to sound, which is very distracting because text messages and call notifications will come through with full sound while I'm working with patients. Not a functional app on the Galaxy S23.

I am just starting to use this app instead of a pager for working in a busy emergency department as an emergency physician. Android 14 AT&t FirstNet Samsung 22+. The pages seem to be coming through okay, however the major problem is the only way to turn it off when I'm not working is to force close. Turned off everything in the app's settings and also in Android app permissions and I still get beeps all the time.

Broken. Keeps updating settings and this seems to interrupt any action you take, including trying to view a page or use the settings menu. It is faster for me to go to a computer and go through multiple login screens over institutional remote access and smartweb to view my inbox to see the page there. Will be returning to a physical pager
