Sources and editorial method
Who publishes the reference pages on apps.vomcore.com, where their facts come from and how to report a mistake.
Who publishes these pages
Vomcore makes iPhone apps. Next to each app we publish reference pages and guides on this site: the same material the app works from, readable for free without the app, an account or ads.
Each app page links to its library, and each library page links back to the app.
How a page is made
Reference pages (a drug, a UN number, a bird species, a company's filings) are built from that one record in the app's dataset. A sentence on the page comes from a field of that record; when the record has no value, the page leaves the line out instead of filling it in.
Guides and calculators are written for the task they explain and show their formula or method on the page.
Pages in other languages are translated from the English source. Names that have no established translation stay in their original form.
Sources by app
The apps below rely on an outside source. The other apps (Tablora, Shotnest, Kleara, Verdia, Elyaz, Cutfit, Cutlist, Apertia) publish practical guides and calculators; their sources, where they use one, are listed at the end of each page.
- Capsera
- Drug cards are summarized from FDA drug labels published through openFDA. Each card shows the label date and links to the full label on DailyMed. The cards have not had an independent clinical review; they are study material, not clinical guidance.
- Hazora
- UN numbers, material names and guide numbers follow the Emergency Response Guidebook 2024 (US DOT PHMSA); orange-panel codes follow UNECE ADR. The web pages deliberately leave out protective-action distances and first-aid text: in an incident, use the official ERG.
- Warbla
- Species pages use GBIF occurrence records (the record count and its date are on each page), Wikidata identifiers and Wikimedia Commons photos with their credits and licences.
- Stock Screener
- Historical financial figures come from company filings on SEC EDGAR, with the company's CIK on every page. The pages describe reported figures; they are not investment advice.
- Amidora
- Prayer texts come from openly licensed editions published on Sefaria.
- Mirepoix
- The sauce library follows Auguste Escoffier's Le Guide Culinaire (1907); each sauce has its own source note.
- Siplore
- Recipes marked as IBA official cocktails follow the International Bartenders Association list; the sources section of each recipe says where it comes from.
- Citelle
- Citation guides follow the published style manuals (APA, MLA, Chicago and others) and check identifiers against Crossref and the ISBN registry.
- Crabwise
- Flight-planning guides cite FAA, NASA Glenn and NIST references at the end of each page. They are for training; always cross-check with approved sources.
- Vante
- Dream-symbol pages collect traditional interpretations, including the classical Ibn Sirin tradition where a page says so. They are for reflection, not medical or psychological advice.
- Yieldra
- Calculators use standard time-value-of-money formulas and show the formula on the page. Examples are worked from your inputs; taxes, fees and market forecasts are not included.
Dates
Where the source changes over time (drug labels, GBIF record counts, filings), the page shows the date the source was last checked.
Report a mistake
If a page is wrong, write to hello@vomcore.com or use the support form. Corrections are made at the source record, so every language version of the page is corrected together.
