Hey ButterflyIQ ultrasound - are you seriously bricking my perfectly good first-gen device and asking me to buy another one and the same email? Forget it. No more recommendations for your products. #ButterflyIQ

Butterfly iQ™ and iQ Vet™ were engineered for the mobile platforms and connectors of 2018. As Apple and Android move forward, continuing to support these devices would introduce risks to security, compatibility, and patient safety. That’s why support for your probe will officially end on December 31, 2025.

As part of the phase-out of the original Butterfly iQ and iQ Vet, your app will soon display persistent banners (as of version 2.44) alerting you that support for your device will end on December 31.

After this date, your probe may still display an image, but you will no longer be able to capture or upload images or cines to the Butterfly Cloud, and it will not be supported for patient care.

Now is the time to take advantage of our limited-time trade-in offers*:

The greatest accidental juxtaposition on my timeline to date!

Two timeline photos. The first is meme with text that says, “For all those that smoked the devil’s lettuce today:” and a cartoon of Ned Flanders holding up a sign that says, “Christ is watching.”

The other photo is from a friend suggestion; their photo is the meme “See, nobody cares.”

Infographic on whether you need a measles booster.

“Infographic titled ‘Do You Need a Measles Booster?’ with a hashtag #DrKimsKids. It provides guidance on whether a measles booster shot is necessary based on birth year or vaccination history. A vertical arrow with different colored sections represents each category:
• Born before 1957 (Blue): ‘NOPE. You were probably already exposed to measles.’
• Vaccinated between 1957-1962 (Pink): ‘MAYBE. Check with your doctor.’
• Vaccinated between 1963-1967 (Green): ‘YES! The measles vaccine you received is considered ineffective and you will need a booster.’
• Vaccinated between 1968-1989 (Orange): ‘MAYBE. Check with your doctor.’
• Vaccinated after 1989 (Purple): ‘NOPE. If you received two doses, your vaccines are considered effective.’

Each category is color-coded and aligned with the corresponding section of the arrow.”
