What's the difference between the WebMD and Medscape apps?

[JohnJSal]

Just curious, since they seem very similar and are both made by WebMD.

Medscape is a reference application targeted more towards medical professionals than average consumers. WebMD is a broader reference guide with a lot of common aliments and diagnoses targeted towards the average consumer. It won't hurt to have both, but I doubt that Medscape will get used often unless you are curious.
