Any good derm iPhone apps?

I am awful at identifying rashes, so I thought a good iPhone app might help. My ideal would be one where you can check off the characteristics and get a list of differentials, then go into that list for details on diagnosis and treatment. That would be awesome. Does anyone have any apps that have been helpful for them?

I have yet to find one. I pretty much rely on my Fitzpatrick book.

I saw an app used on the ipad once. I don't remember what it was called but it was on medical news report on television. It worked by picture recognition. You just take a picture of the area of skin and the app identified the possible skin conditions. I googled and found

DermoMap and MelApp, but no longer have an iphone so I'm unsure of how well they work.
